Biological Activity

Description Arteether is a well-known antimalarial drug which acts by producing free radicals within the malarial parasite.
In vitro Arteether is an oil-soluble derivative of artemisinin with an endoperoxide bridge that can induce apoptosis in tumor cells but not in the normal cells. Arteether and other derivatives show a dose-dependent manner to interact with immune cells[1].
In vivo Intratumoral injection of Arteether could have a significant reduction in tumor growth rate. Intra-tumoral injection of Arteether, as a loco-regional administration, may yield higher drug concentration in tumor and may reduce the risk of systemic adverse effects[1].
