Pharmacology

Artenimol is an active metabolite of artesunate, with anti-malarial activity, and potential insulin sensitivity-improving, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulating and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration of artenimol and the hydrolysis of its active endoperoxide bridge moiety by liberated heme in parasite-infected red blood cells (RBCs), reactive oxygen species (ROS) and carbon-centered radicals form, which damage and kill parasitic organisms. Artenimol may also increase insulin sensitivity and improve insulin resistance.

In addition, artenimol induces the 26S proteasome-mediated degradation of the androgen receptor (AR), thereby lowering AR expression, which may prevent androgen-responsive cellular proliferation. It also reduces luteinizing hormone LH) and testosterone levels, and may improve polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). In addition, artenimol may modulate the immune system and may inhibit tumor cell proliferation through various apoptotic and non-apoptotic pathways.
