Brusatol is able to reach the tumor tissue and inhibit the Nrf2 pathway. Nude mice are injected with A549 cells to induce tumor growth, followed by a single i.p. injection of 2 mg/kg Brusatol. Nrf2 protein levels are significantly decreased at 24 h or 48 h postinjection^[1].
Cisplatin (2 mg/kg) or Brusatol (2 mg/kg) alone does not inhibit tumor growth significantly, whereas in the combination group, tumor size is significantly reduced^[1]. "
