Anthralin, also known as Dithranol, is a hepsin activity inhibitor used for treatment of psoriasis Inhibition of hepsin activity suppresses the invasive growth of the tumor. Anthralin exerts a direct effect on keratinocytes and leukocytes. Anthralin significantly prolonged the prophase of mitotic keratinocytes in subtoxic doses and suppressed the expression of keratin 6 mRNA in the immediately suprabasal layer of psoriatic epidermis in vivo. Anthralin also inhibits the transformation of lymphocytes and the release of reactive oxygen species from activated leukocytes, in vitro.
Store lyophilized at -20ºC, keep desiccated. In lyophilized form, the chemical is stable for 36 months. In solution, store at -20ºC and use within 3 months to prevent loss of potency. Aliquot to avoid multiple freeze/thaw cycles.
