Description: | Chloroquine diphosphate is an antimalarial drug and autophagy/lysosome inhibitor; inhibits Toll-like receptor (TLR) signalling in plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs).in vitro: CHQ-treated MoLC promoted IL-17A secretion by CD4(+) T cells and elevated RORC mRNA levels, whereas IFN-γ release was reduced. The dysregulation of IL-12 family cytokines in MoLC and MoDC occurred at the transcriptional level. CQ was well tolerated and all patients maintained an undetectable VL. The absolute CD4 and CD8 T-cell counts and their percentages, the pDC proportion, T-cell activation, D-dimer and C-reactive protein (CRP) plasma levels and the kynurenine/tryptophan ratio did not change with CQ treatment. Among nine cytokines/chemokines measured, only levels of interferon (IFN)-α2 were significantly increased by CQ treatment. Chloroquine suppressed matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 and MMP-9 mRNA expression and protein activity, whereas MMP-13 mRNA expression and proteolytic activity were increased. Despite enhancing TLR9 mRNA expression, chloroquine suppressed TLR9 protein expression in vitro. in vivo: Daily treatment of mice with intraperitoneal (i.p.) chloroquine (80 mg/kg/day) for 22 days, did not inhibit the growth of control siRNA or TLR9 siRNA MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells . Proliferation of HuH7 cells in vitro increased significantly in response to stimulation of TLR7. TLR7 and TLR9 inhibition using IRS-954 or chloroquine significantly reduced HuH7 cell proliferation in vitro and inhibited tumour growth in the mouse xenograft model. |
