Description
Curator's Comment: http://www.thepharmaletter.com/article/prednisolone-farnesylate-launch-in-japan; http://adisinsight.springer.com/drugs/800002180

Prednisolone farnesylate, a synthetic glucocorticoid, is a terpene-modified compound of prednisolone with an antiinflammatory and antirheumatic action. Glucocorticoid receptor agonists. Farnerate Gel (trade name from Dainippon Pharmaceuticals) and Farnezone Gel (Taiho Pharmaceuticalshave) were launched in Japan in 1998 as topical rheumatoid arthritis (RA) product to treat symptoms associated with RA such as finger, hand and elbow swelling and pain.

CNS Activity

Curator's Comment: In the histological examinations, a decrease in the weight of the thymus and adrenal glands, atrophy of zona fasciculata of the adrenal glands, hypertrophy of zona glomeruli, swelling of cortical cells of zona faciculate and atrophy of the thymus were observed in the PNF gel administered percutaneously at doses 0.8 mg/kg/day in the Beagle dogs.

Route of Administration: Topical
In Vitro Use Guide
Prednisolone farnesylate (PNF) was tested for mutagenicity by Ames test using Salmonella typhimurium (TA100, TA1535, TA98, TA1537) and Escherichia coli (WP2 uvrA), for clastogenic activity in vitro by the chromosomal aberration test in a Chinese hamster fibroblast cell line (CHL). In Ames test, PNF with and without metabolic activation showed no mutagenicity in any strains at any dose levels 312-5,000 micrograms/plate. n the chromosomal aberration test, PNF with metabolic activation produced a slight increase in the incidence of structural chromosomal aberrations in CHL cells at 1,500 micrograms/ml.
