Celastrol (GMP) (Tripterine (GMP)) is Celastrol (HY-10227) produced by using GMP guidelines. GMP small molecules works appropriately as an auxiliary reagent for cell therapy manufacture. Celastrol (Tripterine;Tripterin) is a proteasome inhibitor which potently and preferentially inhibits the chymotrypsin-like activity of a purified 20S proteasome with IC50 of 2.5 μM. In addition, Celastrol is also an antibiotic with potent antimicrobial activity against standard and clinical methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains, inducing oxidative stress and inhibiting DNA synthesis by binding to P5CDH.

Biological Activity
Celastrol (Tripterine;Tripterin) (GMP) significantly inhibits the proteasomal chymotrypsin activity in PC-3 cells in a concentration-dependent manner; at 2.5 μM it reaches ~55% inhibition, comparable to its potency to a purified 20S proteasome (IC50=2.5 μM). Furthermore, increased levels of IκB-α, Bax, and p27 are observed, three well known target proteins of the proteasome in PC-3 cells treated with Celastrol[1].
