Broxyquinoline

Broxyquinoline (Dibromohydroxyquinoline) is an effective inhibitor of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV) with an IC50 of 5.8 µM. Additionally, Broxyquinoline is an inhibitor of CpACBP1 with an IC50 of 64.9 μM. CpACBP1 is a fatty acyl-CoA binding protein of Cryptosporidium parvum, thus Broxyquinoline has the potential to inhibit parasite growth. Broxyquinoline shows promise for research in the field of infectious diseases[1][2].
