Disease relevance of niclosamide

 

High impact information on niclosamide

  • Further studies revealed that HR325 reduced intracellular ATP levels by uncoupling oxidative phosphorylation, albeit with a 1000-fold lower potency than the antihelmintic drug niclosamide [5].
  • The investigation of the niclosamide-DNA interaction using an electrochemical DNA-biosensor showed for the first time clear evidence of interaction with DNA and suggested that niclosamide toxicity can be caused by this interaction, after reductive activation [4].
  • The detection limit was found to be 2.05 x 10(-8) mol dm(-3) niclosamide [6].
  • Potent inhibitors of CYP1A2 were artemisinin, dihydroartemisinin, thiabendazole, primaquine, and niclosamide (K(i) = 0.43, 3.67, 1.54, 0.22, and 2.70 microM, respectively) [7].
  • The subjects assigned to the niclosamide-treated group were comparable with those in the placebo group in age (27.2 versus 27.8 years), total water contact (101.9 versus 109.0 hr), lotion application compliance (93.5% versus 90.6%), and avoidance of whole body water contact (94.7% versus 96.7%) [8].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of niclosamide

 

Biological context of niclosamide

 

Anatomical context of niclosamide

  • The subjects applying the niclosamide lotion were comparable to those applying placebo lotion in age (mean 30 years for both), total water contact (184.5 hr versus 173.8 hr), reported lotion application compliance (88% versus 92%), and reported water contact involving skin exposure other than upper and lower limbs (23% versus 27%) [19].
  • Susceptibility to genotoxic effects of niclosamide in human peripheral lymphocytes exposed in vitro and in vivo [18].
  • The niclosamide group revealed epithelial necrosis in the digestive glands and the gonads [20].
  • 3. During 4-h tests, Malpighian tubules of the chironomid actively transported Bayer 73 and TFM in vitro, and on a per tubule basis, more TFM was transported than Bayer 73 [21].
  • Niclosamide at 160 mg/kg given as single or 2 doses 3 days apart was 91.1% and 92.6% effective, respectively, against the parasites in the small intestine [22].
 

Associations of niclosamide with other chemical compounds

 

Gene context of niclosamide

  • Its effects on mouse-sperm morphology were evaluated in CD1 and (BALB/cJ x DBA/2J) F1 mice after 5 daily oral niclosamide doses of either 60, 80, 100 or 120 mg/kg [27].
  • A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled field trial of a topical antipenetrant lotion, 1% niclosamide, applied daily to the upper and lower limbs of farmers occupationally exposed to Schistosoma mansoni cercarial-infested water, was conducted in the Nile Delta to assess its safety and efficacy in preventing reinfection [19].
  • 2. Toxicant residues were widely distributed during early hours of exposure, but later and during a 24-h post-exposure period, they became concentrated in the trunk and intestinal tract; the posterior movement of Bayer 73 was more rapid than that of TFM [21].
  • The most promising compound was the pyridothienotriazine 12k, with activity similar to that of the salicylanilides niclosamide and oxiclozanide (MLC 0.8 mg l(-1) in PBS, 1.5 mg l(-1) in seawater; MLC = minimum 24 h lethal concentration) [28].
  • The anemia resolved within days under therapy with niclosamide and temporary vitamin B12 supplements [29].
