Application

CDDO Methyl Ester has been used to test its effect on hepatocyte membrane transporters (HMTs) regulation and mitigation of cholestasis in hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). It has also been used activator of NF E2 Related Factor 2 (NRF2) to study its role in preventing cell death in melanoma cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

CDDO-Me inhibits inflammatory mediators including interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-10, and IL-12. It enhances apoptosis induced by TNF and chemotherapeutic agents. CDDO-Me exhibits anti-proliferative activity in osteosarcoma cells and enhances the effectiveness of chemotherapeutic agents by inducing an intrinsic mitochondrial-dependent apoptotic pathway. It can be used as an adjuvant treatment for advanced and fatal form of prostate cancer.
