Solganal (Schering). | [Description]
Aurothioglucose is highly water soluble, and its aqueous solutions decompose on long standing. It therefore is
available as a suspension in sesame oil. Gold content is approximately 50%. Following IM injection, it is highly
protein bound (95%), and peak plasma levels are achieved within 2 to 6 hours. Following a single 50-mg dose, the
biological half-life ranges from 3 to 27 days, but following successive weekly doses, the half-life increases to 14 to
40 days after the third dose. The therapeutic effect does not correlate with serum plasma gold levels but appears to
depend on total accumulated gold. Aurothioglucose is indicated for the adjunctive treatment of adult and juvenile
rheumatoid arthritis. | [History]
In 1927, aurothioglucose was found to relieve joint pain when used to treat bacterial endocarditis. The area of chrysotherapy had begun. Subsequent investigations led to an extensive study of gold compounds in Great Britain by the Empire Rheumatism Council, which reported in 1961 that sodium aurothiomalate was effective in slowing the development of progressive joint diseases. Both aurothioglucose and sodium aurothiomalate are orally ineffective and are administered by IM injection. In 1985, the first orally effective gold compound for arthritis, auranofin, was introduced in the United States. Several other gold compounds have been evaluated clinically but do not appear to offer advantages in terms of efficacy or toxicity. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
Aurothioglucose, a gold compound used clinically to treat rheumatoid arthritis, has recently been found to be a potent PKCiota-Par6 interaction inhibitor, with an IC50 approximately 1 μM. Disruption of this interaction disrupts a rac1 signaling pathway that is required for transformed growth in non-small-cell lung cancer. | [Clinical Use]

The therapeutic effect does not correlate with serum plasma gold levels but appears to depend on total accumulated gold. Aurothioglucose is indicated for the adjunctive treatment of adult and juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. | [Synthesis]
Synthesis: gold thioglucose is prepared by
adding a solution of gold bromide to an aqueous
solution of thioglucose that contains sulfur dioxide. After heating, the product is precipitated by
the addition of ethanol.
 | [Purification Methods]
Purify it by dissolving it in H2O (0.05g in 1mL) and precipitating it by adding EtOH. It yields yellow crystals with a slight mercaptan odour. It decomposes slowly in H2O, and is soluble in propylene glycol but insoluble in EtOH and other common organic solvents. [Caterson & Taylor FEBS Lett 98 351 1979, Cooney et al. Biochem J 259 651 1989.] | [Dosage]
Aurothioglucose is an antirheumatic used to
treat active progressing rheumatoid arthritis and
nondisseminated lupus erythematosus. The drug
is administered at weekly intervals by intramuscular injection (10 mg, 25 mg, then 50 mg) until
800 mg to 1 g has been given. If improvement
takes place, the drug is then administered at levels that balance the urinary excretion of gold.
During this maintenance therapy the interval between injections is lengthened to 3 – 4 weeks. |
