5-Iminodaunorubicin

Biological Activity

[Description]:

5-Iminodaunorubicin is a quinone-modified anthracycline that retains antitumor activity[1]. 5-Iminodaunorubicin produces protein-concealed DNA strand breaks in cancer cells[2].

[In Vitro]

In mouse leukemia L1210 cells, 5-Iminodaunorubicin produces protein-concealed DNA strand breaks. Many of the 5-iminodaunorubicin breaks may arise from apposed single-strand breaks (i.e., double-strand breaks)[2].

[In Vivo]

In rat, 5-Iminodaunorubicin (5-ID; 1-16 mg/kg) treatment produces widening of the QRS complex, increased R- and S-wave voltage, and prolonged the Q alpha T interval. And the quinone redox cycling is suppressed in 5-Iminodaunorubicin. 5-Iminodaunorubicin shows lower cardiotoxic[1].
