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.

In Vitro

Celastrol (Tripterine;Tripterin) 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].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

Treatment of PC-3 tumor-bearing nude mice with Celastrol (1-3 mg/kg/d, i.p., 1-31 days) results in significant inhibition (65-93%) of the tumor growth^[1]. Following treatment with 3 and 6 mg/kg Celastrol, the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) are significantly decreased by 35.2 and 36.7% (P<0.05), respectively. Treatment with 3 and 6 mg/kg Celastrol markedly restores the GSH level (P<0.05) to almost normal levels^[2].

Stock Solution Working Solution

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

Protocol 1

Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline

Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.55 mM); Clear solution

This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

Kinase Assay^[1]

A purified rabbit 20S proteasome (0.1 μg) is incubated with 40 μM of various fluorogenic peptide substrates in 100 μL assay buffer (20 mM Tris-HCl ,pH 7.5), in the presence of Celastrol or Oridonin at different concentrations or in the solvent DMSO for 2 hours at 37°C, followed by measurement of inhibition of each proteasomal activity^[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Cell Assay^[1]

Prostate cancer cells (5,000-8,000) are plated in each well of a 96-well plate and then treated with either DMSO, Celastrol, or Oridonin at different concentrations for 12 to 16 hours, followed by an additional 2-hour incubation with Z-Gly-Gly-Leu-AMC (at 40 μM). After that, the proteasome activity is measured using the whole plate^[1].

Animal Administration^[1]^[2]

Mice^[1]
Male nude immunodeficient mice NCRNU-M, aged 5 weeks, are used. On day 0, human prostate cancer PC-3 or C4-2B cells (5-10×10⁶) suspended in 0.1 mL of serum-free RPMI 1640 are inoculated s.c. in the right flank of each mouse (four mice per group). For the first experiment using PC-3 cells, on day 14 after inoculation, the animals started daily i.p. injection with either 50 to 100 μL of a vehicle [10% DMSO, 70% Cremophor/ethanol (3:1), and 20% PBS], and 1.0 or 3.0 mg/kg of Celastrol. Tumor sizes are measured daily using calipers and their volumes are calculated using a standard formula: width²×length/2. Body weight is measured weekly. To study whether the proteasome is inhibited in an early phase of the experiment, after 3 days of treatment, one control and one 3.0 mg/kg Celastrol -treated mouse is sacrificed. The rest are sacrificed after 16 days of treatment when control tumors reach 1,400 mm³. For the second PC-3 tumor experiment, 12 days after inoculation, mice are randomly divided into three groups and treated with either control, Celastrol, or Oridonin at 1.5 mg/kg daily for the duration of the study (31 days). In another experiment, to study the effects of Celastrol on AR expression, nude mice bearing C4-2B tumors receive daily i.p. injection of the vehicle or 3.0 mg/kg Celastrol.
Rats^[2]
Male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats (n=90, 6 weeks old), weighing 161±9 g, are randomly divided into the control (NC) and the high energy diet (HED) groups. In the control group, the animals receive a standard chow diet, while the rats in the HED group are fed with an additional high energy emulsion. After 8 weeks on their respective diets, Streptozotocin (STZ; 45 mg/kg) dissolved in 0.1 mol/l citrate buffer (pH 4.5) is injected into the caudal vein of the rats in the HED group to establish a model of T2DM, while the rats in the control group are injected with sodium citrate buffer. The rats with blood glucose levels ≥16.7 mM at 7 days after the STZ injection are selected as the model of diabetes. On average, 80% of the rats injected with STZ met these criteria. At 1 week following the injection of STZ, the rats with successfully-induced diabetes are randomly divided into the diabetes model (DM) group, the Celastrol low-dose group (1 mg/kg/day), the Celastrol middle-dose group (3 mg/kg/day) and the Celastrol high-dose group (6 mg/kg/day) (n=15 rats per group). The rats in the treatment groups are administered Celastrol by gavage, whereas the rats in the NC and DM groups are administered an equal amount of distilled water (2 mL). Following 8 weeks of the respective treatments, rats are anesthetized with an intraperitoneal injection of sodium pentobarbital (30 mg/kg body weight) and tissue samples are collected for analysis. The paravertebral muscle is excised from the rat bodies, and is cut perpendicularly along the longitudinal axis and fixed in phosphate-buffered 20% formaldehyde. Histological paraffin-embedded sections (5 μm) are then prepared for H&E staining. The sections of paravertebral muscle are snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at ?80°C until further analysis.

Help & FAQs

How should lyophilized recombinant proteins be reconstituted and stored?

1. Before opening the cap, centrifuge the vial at 13000 rpm for 20-30 seconds. This step will ensure that any lyophilized powder that may have adhered to the cap or walls is collected at the bottom of the vial, minimizing the risk of product loss.
