General description

Clioquinol is a 8-hydroxyquinoline derivative, which comes under the category of allergens and finds potential applications as an anti-infective agent for diarrhoea. It can be used like a chelator in the treatment of alzheimer′s disease, since it has good affinity towards zinc and copper ions and can easily cross the blood-brain barrier.

Application

Clioquinol (5-chloro-7-iodo-quinolin-8-ol) was used in the 1950's-1970's as an oral anti-parasitic agent. More recently, studies have demonstrated that Clioquinol displays preclinical efficacy in the treatment of malignancy. Its anti-cancer activity relates, at least in part, to its ability to inhibit

Clioquinol is a small-molecule metal ionophore that inhibits the proteasome through a metal-dependent mechanism. Here, we report a phase I study of clioquinol in patients with refractory hematologic malignancies. Neuropathy and abdominal pain were dose-limiting toxicities. Minimal pharmacodynamic effects were
