ChEBI: A sesquiterpene lactone and active principle of Feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium). | [Uses]
Parthenolide is a sesquiterpene lactone from the plant feverfew (T. parthenium). It inhibits the growth of the promastigote form of L. amazonensis (IC50 = 3.6 μg/ml). Parthenolide also induces apoptosis in cancer cells, at least in part by inhibiting NF-κBand STAT-mediated anti-apoptotic gene transcription. This compound has also been shown to block inflammation by inhibiting signaling through NF-κB. Inhibition of NF-κB by parthenolide can be achieved by direct binding of the pattern recognition receptor NOD2 by parthenolide. | [Biological Activity]
The active principle of feverfew (Chrysanthemum parthenium), widely used as a herbal remedy for arthritis and migraine and as a febrifuge. Parthenolide is antisecretory, anti-inflammatory, spasmolytic and inhibits the release of 5-HT from blood platelets. Also inhibits generation of leukotriene B 4 and thromboxane B 2 . | [Description]
Parthenolide is an allergen in feverfew (Tanacetum
parthenarium). | [General Description]
This substance is a primary reference substance with assigned absolute purity (considering chromatographic purity, water, residual solvents, inorganic impurities). The exact value can be found on the certificate. Produced by PhytoLab GmbH & Co. KG | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
Parthenolide is a sesquiterpene lactone present abundantly in the leaves and flowers of Tanacetum parthenium. It exhibits anti-cancer properties for the treatment of invasive cancers. Parthenolide exhibits therapeutic effects against inflammation and migraine. It plays a role in signal transduction and activation of transcription (STAT)-inhibition-mediated transcriptional repression of pro-apoptotic genes. | [Mechanism of action]
Parthenolide (PTL) is a potent NF-κB signaling inhibitor that exerts anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting IκBα depletion, thereby inhibiting excessive NF-κB activation. It also inhibits the nuclear translocation of the p65 subunit and the DNA binding of the NF-κB complex to exert anti-tumor effects. In addition, it inhibits STAT and MAP kinase activity and induces sustained JNK activity and p53 activity by affecting MDM2 and HDAC1 levels, resulting in increased sensitivity of cancer cells to chemotherapy and radiotherapy. The most unique property is that it can induce cell death mainly in cancer cells while sparing healthy cells, and it also protects normal cells from UVB and oxidative stress. | [storage]
