Piperlongumine (20069-09-4) elevates cellular levels of reactive oxygen species selectively in cancer cell lines.1 Irreversible glutathionylation leading to depletion of cellular glutathione is associated with its cellular toxicity.2 Piperlongumine does not appear to have any effect on normal cells. Displays anti-tumor effects in a mouse xenograft tumor model as well as in spontaneously formed malignant breast tumors in mice.1 Elevation of ROS levels in response to piperlongumine may be due to inhibition of ubiquitin-proteasome system at a pre-proteasomal step.3
