Título: | Antimalarial quinoline drugs inhibit β-hematin and increase free hemin catalyzing peroxidative reactions and inhibition of cysteine proteases |

CSIC ORCID | Fecha de publicación: | 2019 | Editor: | Nature Publishing Group | Citación: | Scientific Reports 9: 15398 (2019) | Resumen: | Malaria caused by Plasmodium affects millions people worldwide. Plasmodium consumes hemoglobin during its intraerythrocytic stage leaving toxic heme. Parasite detoxifies free heme through formation of hemozoin (β-hematin) pigment. Proteolysis of hemoglobin and formation of hemozoin are two main targets for antimalarial drugs. Quinoline antimarial drugs and analogs (β-carbolines or nitroindazoles) were studied as inhibitors of β-hematin formation. The most potent inhibitors were quinacrine, chloroquine, and amodiaquine followed by quinidine, mefloquine and quinine whereas 8-hydroxyquinoline and β-carbolines had no effect. Compounds that inhibited β-hematin increased free hemin that promoted peroxidative reactions as determined with TMB and ABTS substrates. Hemin-catalyzed peroxidative reactions were potentiated in presence of proteins (i.e. globin or BSA) while antioxidants and peroxidase inhibitors decreased peroxidation. Free hemin increased by chloroquine action promoted oxidative reactions resulting in inhibition of proteolysis by three cysteine proteases: papain, ficin and cathepsin B. Glutathione reversed inhibition of proteolysis. These results show that active quinolines inhibit hemozoin and increase free hemin which in presence of HO that abounds in parasite digestive vacuole catalyzes peroxidative reactions and inhibition of cysteine proteases. This work suggests a link between the action of quinoline drugs with biochemical processes of peroxidation and inhibition of proteolysis. | Versión del editor: | http://dx.doi.org/10.1038/s41598-019-51604-z | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/202670 | DOI: | 10.1038/s41598-019-51604-z | Identificadores: | doi: 10.1038/s41598-019-51604-z issn: 2045-2322 |
