Application

Brusatol has been used to study the protective role of Nrf2 (nuclear factor, erythroid 2 like 2 ) in intestinal ischemia/reperfusion induced injury.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Brusatol (Brutasol) is a plant-derived natural quassinoid that exhibits broad cytotoxicity in cancer cultures (IC50 <1 μM against 457 cancer cell lines) by inhibiting de novo synthesis of cellular proteins (Effective conc. <50 nM in A549 cells), including NRF2.
Brusatol promotes Nrf2 (nuclear factor, erythroid 2 like 2 ) ubiquitination and degradation. Brusatol upregulates the expression of multiple ribosomal components and controls macromolecular complex function.

An increasing number of metal-based compounds, including arsenic trioxide, auranofin, and cisplatin, have been reported to have antitumor activity. Their beneficial effects are controlled by a transcription factor, nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (NRF2). In response to oxidative stress, NRF2
