Overview

Replacement Information
Description
OverviewA cell-permeable antitumor alkaloid that acts as a potent inhibitor of topoisomerase II (IC50 = 3.3 µM). Restores functional wild-type p53 activity via inhibition of mutant p53 protein phosphorylation. Suppresses Cdk2 activity in a concentration-dependent manner. Also reported to inhibit telomerase activity in cultured pancreatic cells, possibly through inhibition of protein kinases. Binds to the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) in rat lung cytosol and inhibits aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH) activity in rat hepatic microsomes.

Revision07-April-2008 RFH
Synonyms9-HE, HCl
DescriptionA cell-permeable, antitumor alkaloid that acts as a potent inhibitor of topoisomerase II(IC50 = 3.3 µM). Restores functional wild-type p53 activity via inhibition of mutant p53 protein phosphorylation. Shown to induce apoptosis in Saos-2 osteosarcoma cells by arresting cells at G1 stage of the cell cycle. Suppresses Cdk2 activity in a concentration-dependent manner. Also reported to inhibit telomerase activity in cultured pancreatic cancer cells, in a time- and concentration-dependent manner, possibly through inhibition of protein kinases. Binds to the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) in rat lung cytosol and inhibits aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH) activity in rat hepatic microsomes.
