Pentosan Polysulfate_product_DataBase

Bioactivity	Pentosan Polysulfate is an orally bioavailable medication with anti-inflammatory and pro-chondrogenic properties. Pentosan Polysulfate also displays a potent and selective anti-HIV activity. Pentosan Polysulfatecan be used for the research of interstitial cystitis[1][2].
Invitro	Pentosan polysulfate has been shown to inhibit HIV-1 activity with an ED50 of 0.19 μg/mL in MT-4 cells. It inhibits HIV-1 antigen expression in HUT-78 cells at an ED50 of 0.02 μg/mL, and complete inhibition of HIV-1 antigen expression is obtained at a concentration of 4.0 μg/mL[2].Pentosan Polysulfate suppresses NF-κB, decreases the proinflammatory actions of TNFα, and decreases high glucose and advanced glycation end products (AGEs) stimulated MCP-1 production[3].
In Vivo	Pentosan polysulfate has been shown to decreases interstitial inflammation and glomerulosclerosis in 5/6 nephrectomized rats. Pentosan polysulfate treatment preserves renal function, significantly reduces albuminuria, and markedly decreases the severity of renal lesions, including tubulointerstitial inflammation. Pentosan polysulfate also reduces upregulation of TNFα and proinflammatory genes in aging diabetic kidneys[3].
