Topotecan hydrochloride
Chemical Name: 10-[(Dimethylamino)methyl]-4-ethyl-4,9-dihydroxy-1H-pyrano[3',4':6,7]indolizino[1,2-b]quinoline-3,14(4H,12H)-dione hydrochloride
Purity: ≥98%
Biological Activity
Topotecan hydrochloride is a DNA topoisomerase I inhibitor; induces rapid apoptotic death in human B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) cells. Improves survival in three mouse models of poor prognosis ALL; downregulates B-Myb and MycN expression in neuroblastoma cells. Water-soluble analog of Camptothecin (Cat. No. 1100). Orally bioavailable. Topotecan disrupts the interaction between NHP2L1 and U4 RNA by binding to U4 and inhibits RNA splicing.Technical Data
