Abstract

We have investigated the contribution of drug accumulation and inhibition of heme polymerization to the in vitro activities of a series of antimalarial drugs. Only those compounds exhibiting structural relatedness to the quinolines inhibited heme polymerization. We could find no direct correlation between in vitro activity against chloroquine-susceptible or chloroquine-resistant isolates and either inhibition of heme polymerization or cellular drug accumulation for the drugs studied. However, in vitro activity against a chloroquine-susceptible isolate but not a chloroquine-resistant isolate showed a significant correlation with inhibition of heme polymerization when the activity was normalized for the extent of drug accumulation. The importance of these observations to the rational design of new quinoline-type drugs and the level of agreement of these conclusions with current views on quinoline drug action and resistance are discussed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
