Description

Off-White Solid


Bucillamine is an organic molecular entity.|Bucillamine has been used in trials studying the treatment and prevention of Gout and Rheumatoid Arthritis.|Bucillamine is an orally bioavailable derivative of the endogenous amino acid cysteine with two donatable thiol groups, with potential antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. Upon oral administration, bucillamine enters cells rapidly via the same pathway as cysteine and replenishes the thiol group in glutathione (GSH), thereby increasing intracellular GSH levels and GSH activity. GSH is an antioxidant and plays an important protective role in oxidative stress and injury. Bucillamine may have additional anti-inflammatory effects, though the mechanisms of action have yet to be fully elucidated.

Drug Information

Anti-inflammatory agents that are non-steroidal in nature. In addition to anti-inflammatory actions, they have analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions.They act by blocking the synthesis of prostaglandins by inhibiting cyclooxygenase, which converts arachidonic acid to cyclic endoperoxides, precursors of prostaglandins. Inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis accounts for their analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions; other mechanisms may contribute to their anti-inflammatory effects. (See all compounds classified as Anti-Inflammatory Agents, Non-Steroidal.)|Naturally occurring or synthetic substances that inhibit or retard oxidation reactions. They counteract the damaging effects of oxidation in animal tissues. (See all compounds classified as Antioxidants.)
