Table 7. Evaluation of 17 in a Peter’s 4 Day P. berghei Mouse Modela.
compound | 17 | CQ | vehicle |
---|---|---|---|
dose (mg/kg) | 20 | 10 | |
% parasitemiab | 8.1 | 0.02 | 18.5 |
% reduction in parasitemiac | 56.2 | 99.8 |
P. berghei ANKA parasites expressing GFP were injected into the tail vein to infect mice on day 0. Compound 17 was administered q.d. at 20 mg/kg by p.o. 2 h after infection (day 0) and then on days 1, 2, and 3. Parasitemia was measured by flow cytometry. Figure S7 shows data for individual mice. CQ = chloroquine.
Average % parasitemia for four mice on day 4.
Average % reduction in parasitemia versus the vehicle control for four mice on day 4.
