PENTOSAN POLYSULFATE (PPS)

• Molecular Formula:(C5H6Na2O10S2)n
• Molecular Weight: 602.473 g/mol
• Sequence: Non-peptide

DESCRIPTION

Pentosan polysulfate is a semi-synthetic polysulfated xylan used for the relief of Osteoartritis. The mechanism of PPS action in osteoarthritis is multifactorial, with both stimulation of cartilage matrix synthesis and prevention of cartilage breakdown. There are also systemic effects on blood lipid and fibrinolysis that may help clear the subchondral circulation. In one study, after a series of four to six intra-articular PPS injections into knees of human volunteers, there was a significant increase in the size of the synovial fluid hyaluronan without causing any inflammation or bleeding into the joint cavity.

PROTOCOL

• Content & Potency: 250mg/ml solution provided in a 10ml vial.
• Suggested dosage: Inject 1-2ml directly into the intracticular space.

CLINICAL RESEARCH

The influence of an oversulphated glycosaminoglycan, pentosanpolysulphate, on hyaluronan metabolism of the synovial lining cell was studied in vivo in human volunteers. Significant increases in the mean degree of polymerisation of the hyaluronan chains were observed after a series of four to six intra-articular injections of this glycosaminoglycan. No increases in hyaluronan synthesis rates were observed. Repeated administration of the drug did not cause any inflammation or bleeding in the joint cavity.
