Description

Artesunate (WR-256283) is a water-soluble, semi-synthetic artemisinin derivative used as a key antimalarial agent in research. Its application extends to studying mechanisms of action and drug resistance in both in vitro parasite assays and in vivo animal models of malaria.

Bioactivity

−

In Vivo	Artesunate is a medication used to treat malaria. Artesunate can induce radiosensitivity of HeLa cells in vivo using Xenograft model of nude mice. Artesunate had a relatively high immunosuppressive activity with low toxicity, and could inhibit T lymphocyte proliferation induced by mitogen and alloantigen. Read more...
In Vitro	ART could alter the biomechanical properties of the glioma cells to inhibit cell proliferation, migration and invasion . The ART significantly suppresses the cell proliferation, induces the apoptosis and promoted cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase in SKM-1 cells. The mechanisms of ART anti-MDS is associated with the increase of intracellular calciumion concentration and ROS levels. In addition, the pro-apoptotic activity of ART may be involved in the regulation of BCL-2 /BAX ratio and the expressions of P-bad and survivin. ART treatment demethylates CDH1, which, in turn recovers the E-cadherin activation in SKM-1 cells. Read more...
Cell Research	Growth inhibition assay: The SKM-1 cells (1×105/mL) are firstly seeded in 96-well plates. Artesunate is diluted in 0.1% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) producing 0, 12.5, 25, 50µg/mL concentrations and added to the SKM-1 cells with 100 µl per well. A negative control is treated with 0.1% DMSO. At 0, 24, 48, and 72 hours, same amount of MTT solution is added into each well and cultured for extra 4 hours. MTT treated cells are fixed with 150 µL DMSO for 30 min at room temperature and then determined with Evolution 201 and 220 UV-Vis spectrophotometer system at 540 nm.
