Halquinol is a compound with antibacterial effects, and its mechanism of action mainly includes the following aspects:
Non-specific chelation. Halquinol can bind to important metal ions, making it impossible for bacteria to them, thereby, assisting antibacterial drugs in inhibiting the growth of harmful bacteria and helping to regulate the balance of intestinal microecology.
Directly acts on gastrointestinal smooth muscle, reduces gastrointestinal motility, promotes the absorption of water and nutrients, reduces the production of watery diarrhea, and thus promotes animal growth4.
Interferes with the synthesis of fungal cell walls, inhibits the growth and reproduction of fungi by interfering with the synthesis of fungal cell walls.
Antimalarial effect, as an antimalarial drug, it is mainly used to treat malignant malaria. It achieves the therapeutic effect by interfering with the life cycle of malarial parasites and blocking their reproduction and transmission. In addition, Halquinol can also be used to prevent the occurrence of malaria, especially in areas with high incidence of malaria. Regular use of Halquinol can effectively reduce the risk of malaria infection.
In addition, the mechanism of action of quinolones, especially fluoroquinolones, is mainly through the inhibition of bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV, which are essential for the replication, repair and maintenance of the supercoiled state of bacterial DNA. Quinolones form complexes with these enzymes, resulting in blocked DNA replication and ultimately bacterial death. At the same time, quinolones may further enhance their antibacterial effects through other mechanisms, such as inducing DNA misreplication by the SOS repair system, inhibiting RNA and protein synthesis at high concentrations, and post-antibiotic effect (PAE).
In the future, we will further explore the potential of Halquinol, explore its wider application, and provide better products to the market.
