Quinoline is a bicyclic heterocycle that is found in the natural world. It has been shown to have potent anti-tumor activity and is currently being studied for its possible use as an antitumor agent. Quinoline has also been shown to exhibit antifungal activity, which may be due to its ability to inhibit the synthesis of ergosterol, a sterol found in fungal cell membranes. This compound also exhibits potent interactions with toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), which can lead to cardiac effects such as hypotension, bradycardia, and vasodilation. Quinoline also binds kappa-opioid receptors and human serum albumin, which may play a role in its biological properties.
