Additionally, in vitro studies demonstrate that this agent induces DNA breakage in a dose-dependent manner. Upon hydrolysis of artesunate's active endoperoxide bridge moiety by liberated heme in parasite-infected red blood cells, reactive oxygen species and carbon-centered radicals form, which have been shown to damage and kill parasitic organisms. 4-Oxo-4-hexadecan-10-yl)oxy]butanoic acid Others Artesunate is a water-soluble, semi-synthetic derivative of the sesquiterpine lactone artemisinin with anti-malarial, anti-schistosomiasis, antiviral, and potential anti-neoplastic activities.
