Costunolide [also known as (+)-Costunolide, Costus lactone, CCRIS-6754 and NSC-106404] is a naturally occurring sesquiterpene compound with a wide spectrum of biological activities such as anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antidiabetic, antiviral, antimicrobial, antiulcer, antifungal, antioxidant, and anthelmintic properties. It was initially discovered in 1960 in Saussurea costus roots. With an IC50 of 20 μM, costunolide inhibits FPTase. It also inhibits telomerase, with an IC50 of 65-90 μM.
Targets |
FPTase ( IC50 = 20 μM ); Telomerase (MDA-MB-231) ( IC50 = 65 μM ); Telomerase (MCF-7) ( IC50 = 90 μM )

Enzyme Assay |
The TRAP assay measures telomerase activity using the TRAPez Telomerase Detection Kit, which contains primers for a 36-bp internal control (IC) that allows the amplification of telomerase activity to be quantified within a linear range near 2.5 logs. To treat the extract with RNase, 10μL of it are incubated for 20 minutes at 37 °C with 1μg of RNase. The TRAP assay products are separated by electrophoresis in a nondenaturing 12% PAGE with a buffer that contains 0.5 × Tris-borate EDTA, and they are then autoradiographically detected. Dried gels are exposed to room temperature Fuji Imaging Plates in order to quantify TRAP products. The untreated control cell signal is assigned a standard value of 100 after background correction is applied to the results. The signal intensities of cells treated with costunolide are expressed as a percentage of the maximum value of 100 and are compared to the standard.[1]

Cell Assay |
1) In a 96-well plate, plate 500–10,000 cells with 200 μL of media per well. 8 wells should be left empty for blank controls. 2) To enable the cells to adhere to the wells, incubate (37 °C, 5% CO2) for the entire night. 3) Fill each well with 2 μL of dissolved costunolide in DMSO. To ensure that the samples and media are well mixed, place on a shaking table and shake for five minutes at 150 rpm. 5) Allow Costunolide to work for 48 hours by incubating at 37 °C with 5% CO2. 6) Add at least 2 milliliters (mL) of MTT solution (5 mg/mL) to each 96-well plate in PBS. Since MTT in solution is not long-term stable, do not create a stock. 7) Fill each well with 20 μL of MTT solution. Put the media on a shaking table and spin it at 150 rpm for five minutes to fully incorporate the MTT. 8) Let the MTT metabolize for one to five hours by incubating at 37 °C with 5% CO2. 9) Dismiss the press. (If needed, dry the plate on paper towels to get rid of any residue. The MTT metabolic product, formazan, should be redissolved in 200 μL of DMSO. To completely combine the formazan and solvent, put on a shaking table and shake for five minutes at 150 rpm. 11) Determine the optical density at 560 nm. 11) Subtract background at 670 nm and read optical density at 560 nm. There should be a direct relationship between cell quantity and optical density.
