Description
Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24073600 | http://www.webmd.com/vitamins-supplements/ingredientmono-106-gossypol.aspx?activeingredientid=106&activeingredientname=gossypol

Gossypol is a substance that is found in the cotton plant. It is removed from the seeds and used for medicine. Gossypol is effective as a nonhormonal male contraceptive; however, it has been documented to have irreversible effects on male fertility. Gossypol is reported to exhibit antioxidant, anticancer, antivirus, antiparasitic, and antimicrobial properties and lower plasma cholesterol. Nausea, emesis, anorexia, diarrhea, altered taste sensation, small intestine obstruction, and fatigue have been recorded in clinical trials as adverse reactions. Large amounts of gossypol can decrease potassium levels in the body. Low potassium levels can increase the side effects of digoxin.

Sample Use Guides

15 mg per day for 12 weeks or, if needed, for 16 weeks to reach spermatogenesis suppression.
Route of Administration: Oral
In Vitro Use Guide
In the testing of the possibility of the inactivation of HIV, it was found that a concentration of 100uM of gossypol completely inactivates cell-free preparations of HIV. Following exposure of cell-free incubates of HIV to 100 uM gossypol, ultracentrifugation and inoculation of the washed pellet onto H9 cells, there is no evidence of elevated reverse transcriptase activity over 21 days. Treatment with lower concentrations of gossypol reduces the peak and lengthens the time to maximal reverse transcriptase activity compared with control cultures.
