Artemisinin Use and Manufacturing
It is extracted from the leaves of Artemisia annua (Artemisia annua L). In addition to artemisinin, artemether and artesunate sodium are also produced in my country.
An antimalarial agent that inhibits VEGF expression and NOS2.Artemisia annua is used as an antimalarial drug. Clinical application has proved that artemisinin and its derivatives have special effects on malaria and falciparum malaria, especially Artemtherin, which is more effective than other artemisinin-killing malaria parasites. The role of asexual cells in cells is stronger. It has the advantages of high efficiency, quick effect, low toxicity and no cross resistance with chloroquine. It can be used not only for treatment but also for emergency treatment. It is suitable for all kinds of malaria, such as falciparum malaria, vivax malaria, chloroquine-resistant malaria and cerebral malaria. Including the dangerous type.
Drug Function and Efficacy
Artemisinin is a sesquiterpene lactone drug with peroxide groups extracted from the traditional Chinese medicine Artemisia annua. Its effect on the ultrastructure of the erythrocytic stage of Plasmodium malariae is mainly the change of the membrane structure of the parasite. The drug first acts on the food vacuole membrane, the surface membrane, mitochondria, and the endoplasmic reticulum. In addition, it also has a certain effect on the chromatin in the nucleus. It suggests that the mode of action of artemisinin is mainly to interfere with the function of the surface membrane-mitochondria. It may be that artemisinin acts on the food vacuole membrane, thereby blocking the earliest stage of nutrient intake, causing the parasite to starve for amino acids more quickly, quickly forming autophagic vacuoles, and continuously excreting them from the parasite, causing the parasite to lose a large amount of cytoplasm and die. The uptake of tritium-labeled isoleucine by Plasmodium falciparum cultured in vitro also shows that its initial mode of action may be to inhibit the synthesis of protozoan proteins.
