AAV vectors are ideally suited for long-term delivery of a combination of broadly neutralizing antibodies to achieve sterilizing immunity to HIV. Unfortunately, host immune responses to the delivered antibody have severely limited the efficacy. The TLR9 pathway has been identified in initiating adaptive immune responses against AAV and delivered bNAbs. To enhance this strategy, we validated Hydroxychloroquine, a known drug inhibitor of the TLR9 pathway, as a pretreatment to AAV delivery to avoid anti-drug antibody responses. TLR9 signaling inhibition was validated using a HEK-Blue hTLR9 reporter cell line and CpG stimulation. Hydroxychloroquine was also validated in a 3-macaque trial where AAV9-3BNC117 and AAV9-10-1074 were administered along with 3 doses of hydroxychloroquine once a week starting 1 week before AAV inoculation. Unlike historical controls, where 3BNC117 and 10-1074 expression is lost within the first 4-5 weeks, 2 macaques maintained 10-1074 expression and 1 macaque maintained 3BNC117 for the duration of the trial. Anti-3BNC117 antibodies were only observed in 2 of the 3 macaques and were significantly delayed. Anti-10-1074 antibody responses were a log lower than typically observed in historic controls. The use of hydroxychloroquine as a pretreatment for AAV inoculation is a promising strategy. The significant decrease in anti-10-1074 antibody levels and the successful delivery of 10-1074 in 2 macaques and 3BNC117 in 1 macaque was very encouraging. Extending the dosage of hydroxychloroquine beyond 3 doses may be sufficient to observe long-term bNAb expression in all animals and further decrease ADA responses. Together, these data suggest that the short-term treatment of hydroxychloroquine at the time of AAV inoculation has a meaningful impact on tolerance induction to our AAV-delivered bNAbs.

The present invention aims to provide a chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) slurry for tungsten polishing, comprising: a chloroquine corrosion inhibitor, water, abrasive particles, a catalyst, a stabilizer, an oxidant, and a pH adjuster. The CMP slurry provided by the present invention can provide high tungsten polishing speeds and moderate silica polishing speeds. Most importantly, the composition exhibits low tungsten static corrosion, thereby improving the surface condition of the polished metal.

The invention discloses application of hydroxychloroquine to improvement of gene editing efficiency. The invention provides novel application of hydroxychloroquine, namely application of hydroxychloroquine in improving gene editing efficiency of a gene editing reagent on a receptor biological material. In the prior art, a research of combining hydroxychloroquine and gene editing efficiency is not seen. The inventor of the invention finds that the gene editing efficiency can be remarkably improved by treating a receptor biological material with hydroxychloroquine and then transfecting a gene editing reagent. The method is easy and convenient to operate and wide in applicability, and a new way for improving the editing efficiency is developed by introducing exogenous small molecules instead of directly modifying a gene editing tool. The invention provides a basis for exploring an editing efficiency improvement strategy by adding exogenous molecules instead of modifying an editor mutant.

A composition for preventing or treating a TNF-α-related disease is disclosed. The composition includes hydroflumethiazide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as an active ingredient. The composition can effectively inhibit the expression or activity of TNF-α and exhibits an excellent treatment effect compared to methotrexate (MTX) or hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), which are rheumatoid arthritis treatment agents currently on the market, and, thus, can be effectively used for prevention or treatment of a TNF-α-related disease.

The invention relates to the technical field of biological medicines, in particular to application of veratramine in preparation of lysosome capture inhibition preparations and antiviral preparations. It is found that veratramine can be captured by lysosome and accumulated in the lysosome, and veratramine can be used for preparing lysosome capture inhibition preparations. Veratrolamine has the characteristics of small toxic and side effects and high safety, and is obviously superior to the existing lysosome capture inhibitors such as chloroquine and the like.

Despite recent efforts to eradicate malaria worldwide, this parasitic disease is still considered a major public health problem, with a total of 219 million malaria cases and 435,000 deaths in 2017 After a decade of use, however, resistance to CQ has emerged in some locations, including Southeast Asia, South America, and the Western Pacific region, spreading progressively into malaria-endemic areas, including Africa, where increases in malaria mortality have been observed. This has led, in recent years, to the adoption of artemisinin-based combination therapies. Artemisinin-based combination therapies remain effective in most parts of the world, but recent cases of resistance in Southeast Asia call for new approaches and especially new drugs to treat malaria. Thus, the present invention features CQ analogues of Formula (I) that exhibited high activity against CQ-sensitive and CQ-resistant blood parasites and were also active in mice. The present invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds of Formula (I), use of said compounds, and methods for treating conditions caused by blood parasites.

The application provides an activated endothelial cell membrane-coated nanoparticle, a preparation method, application and a pharmaceutical composition, and belongs to the technical field of biomedical materials. The nanoparticle is composed of a rutin / hydroxychloroquine self-assembled nanoparticle core coated by brain microvascular endothelial cell membranes pretreated by TNF-alpha. The application screens a specific molar ratio of rutin and hydroxychloroquine. The preparation can be combined with the specific binding of ICAM-1 and integrin alpha M beta2 on the surface of neutrophils, and can be carried by neutrophils to cross the blood-brain barrier, realize parenchymal brain targeting enrichment, and synergistically exert anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, NETs formation inhibition and neuroprotective effects, thereby significantly improving ischemic stroke reperfusion injury.

The invention relates to the field of biomedicine, and discloses application of an HLA-B * 27: 04 allele in preparation of a product for evaluating the risk of drug rash caused by hydroxychloroquine. The application comprises the step of predicting the medication risk of a subject by detecting whether the subject carries the HLA-B * 27: 04 allele or not. The HLA-B * 27: 04 allele is found to be strongly related to the drug rash caused by the hydroxychloroquine for the first time and can be used as a risk genetic marker of the drug rash caused by the hydroxychloroquine. In practical application, the risk of drug eruption of a subject needing to be treated by using hydroxychloroquine can be predicted by detecting whether the HLA-B * 27: 04 allele is carried by the subject, and the risk of drug eruption caused by hydroxychloroquine of the subject carrying the HLA-B * 27: 04 allele after the subject uses hydroxychloroquine is obviously higher than that of a non-carrier. The detection product provided by the invention is high in specificity, high in positive predictive value and good in clinical application prospect.
