Description
Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including: Weici Tang, Gerhard Eisenbrand (2013) "Chinese Drugs of Plant Origin", p.455-457 Retrieved from https://books.google.ru/books?id=xmHwCAAAQBAJ

The alkaloids febrifugine was originally isolated from the roots of the Chinese shrub Dichroa febrifuga. Febrifugine showed an antimalarial activity 50-100 times higher than that of quinine. Febrifugine acts by causing an increase in NO production during the immunological response - increased production of NO by febrifugine plays an important role in host defense against malaria infection in mice. Also, febrifugine are known to inhibit prolyl-tRNA synthetase of malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum.
