What is Methylprednisolone sodium succinate?
Description
Methylprednisolone Sodium Succinate is the sodium succinate salt of a synthetic glucocorticoid receptor agonist with immunosuppressive and anti-inflammatory effects. It is converted into active prednisolone in the body, which activates glucocorticoid receptor-mediated gene expression. This includes inducing the synthesis of the anti-inflammatory protein IkappaB-alpha and inhibiting the synthesis of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappaB). As a result, proinflammatory cytokine production, such as IL-1, IL-2, and IL-6, is down-regulated, and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte activation is inhibited. Therefore, an overall reduction in chronic inflammation and autoimmune reactions may be achieved.
The Uses of Methylprednisolone sodium succinate
6α-Methylprednisolone 21-Hemisuccinate is a glucocorticosteroid used in anti-inflammatory medication in the treatment of spinal cord injuries.
