Application

Hydroxychloroquine sulfate has been used:
  • as an inhibitor of autophagy to treat cells for apoptosis assay to study the role of pirarubicin induced autophagy in bladder cancer cell line
  • to evaluate the antiviral mechanism of hydroxychloroquine against DENV-2 (dengue virus-2) infection by immunofluorescence assay
  • to inhibit lysosome fusion with the autophagosome

Biochem/physiol Actions

Hydroxychloroquine is also used for treating rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus.
Hydroxychloroquine sulfate is an anti-inflammatory (via TNF), disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD), and a heme polymerase inhibitor. It is used in treating malaria.
