cord-350992-l6l24pco	Roldan, Eugenia Quiros	The possible mechanisms of action of 4-aminoquinolines (chloroquine/hydroxychloroquine) against Sars-Cov-2 infection (COVID-19): A role for iron homeostasis?	2020-05-13		.txt	text/plain	8037	393	40	Here we review what is currently known on the mechanisms of action of CQ and HCQ as anti-viral, anti-inflammatory and anti-thrombotic drugs and discuss the up-to-date experimental evidence on the potential mechanisms of action of CQ/HCQ in Sars-Cov2 infection and the current clinical knowledge on their efficacy in the treatment of COVID-19 patients. We also propose a different insight into some of CQ and HCQ effects, suggesting a potential role of iron homeostasis in Sars-Cov-2 disease (COVID-19), similarly to several other human viral infections [2] [3] [4] . The search strategy was to use different search terms alone and in any combination, such as "Sars-Cov-2 disease", "COVID-19", "Sars-Cov-2", "coronavirus", "clinical trial", "treatment", "drug", "chloroquine", "hydroxychloroquine", "iron", "virus", "viral entry", "viral spread", "anti-viral activity", "infection", "inflammation", "immunity", "innate immunity", "cytokine", "IL-6", "TNF-", "IL-1", "adaptive immunity", "thrombosis", "in vitro".	./cache/cord-350992-l6l24pco.txt	./txt/cord-350992-l6l24pco.txt
