Description
Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including https://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v173/n4417/abs/1731237b0.html | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25308129

Pristimerin, the methyl ester of celasterol, is a triterpenoid quinone methide isolated from Pristimerae indica. Pristimerin shows anticancer activity in vitro towards myeloma, prostate, breast, ovarian cancer cell lines and inhibits xenografted plasmacytoma tumors in mice. In a rat model of adjuvant arthritis, pristimerin effectively inhibited both arthritic inflammation and cartilage and bone damage in the joints. Pristimerin acts by inhibiting NF-kB signaling pathway and the 26S proteasome.

Originator

Curator's Comment: Isolation of pristimerin from Pristimerae indica and P. grahami was reported by Bhatnagar and Divekar. J. Sci. Indust. Res., 10 B, 56 (1951).

Sample Use Guides

In a study of human myeloma xenograft tumors in nude mice, a liposomal formulation of the pristimerin was developed, successfully incorporating 98.7% of the drug and given by intravenous tail vein injection. Statistically significant tumor growth inhibition occurred at pristimerin doses of 2 to 3 mg/kg intravenously twice weekly.
Route of Administration: Intravenous
Cytotoxicity of pristimerin towards human myeloma cell lines U266, H929, KMS18, OPM1 was assessed by MTT assay at 72 hours. The median IC50 of pristimerin against myeloma cell lines is approximately 200 nM.
