Biological Activity

[Description]:

Trenimon is a compound with anti-cancer effects. Trenimon shows mutagenic actions in many species by inducing point and chromosomal mutations, sister-chromatid exchanges, recombination phenomena and phage induction. Trenimon can be used for the research of cancer[1][2][3][4].

Signaling Pathways >> Cell Cycle/DNA Damage >> DNA/RNA Synthesis

[In Vitro]

Trenimon (0.17 mM) penetrates readily into mouse lymphoma cells in vitro[1]. Trenimon (0.17 nM; 5 min-16 h) time-denpendently reduces the priming activity of DNA[2]. Trenimon (1 nM-10 μM; 10-20 min) leds HeLa cells death after 2 weeks with a dose of 10 μM and dose-dependently suppresses mitosis in cells[3].

[In Vivo]

Trenimon (0.25 mg/kg; i.p. once) rapidly depresseas of the cellular elements of the peripheral blood (granulocytes, lymphocytes, reticulocytes, platelets and erythrocytes), and reduces the cell number of bone marrow[4]. Trenimon (0.03 mg/kg; i.v. once per week for 52 weeks) shows an cancerogenic effect in vivo[4]. Animal Model: BR 46 male rats[4] Dosage: 0.03 mg/kg Administration: Intravenous injection; 0.03 mg/kg once per week for 52 weeks Result: Showed an cancerogenic effect and 24% animals developed malign tumors, and showed a induction time of the tumors is 16 months.
