Chemical Name: (9β,13α,14β,20α)-3-Hydroxy-9,13-dimethyl-2-oxo-24,25,26-trinoroleana-1(10),3,5,7-tetraen-29-oic acid
Purity: ≥99%
Biological Activity
Celastrol is an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antitumor and neuroprotective agent. Inhibits lipid peroxidation in mitochondria, TNF-α-induced NFκB activation, peroxidase activity of peroxiredoxin 1 (IC50 = 0.29 μM), and topoisomerase II activity in vitro (IC50 = 7.41 μM). Celastrol treatment inhibits the growth of PC-3 tumors in mice.Technical Data
