Doxorubicin (Adriamycin) Hydrochloride DNA Topoisomerase II Inhibitor

Cat.No.S1208

Doxorubicin (DOX) HCl is an antibiotic agent that inhibits human DNA topoisomerase II with IC50 of 2.67 μM. Doxorubicin reduces basal phosphorylation of AMPK. Doxorubicin is used in the concomitant treatment of HIV-infected patients but is found to be at high risk of HBV reactivation.This product may precipitate when dissolved in PBS solution. It is recommended to prepare the stock solution in pure water and dilute with either pure water or saline to obtain the working solution.Doxorubicin (Adriamycin) HCl can be used to induce animal models of kidney disease.

Mechanism of Action

Information	Doxorubicin (Adriamycin) Hydrochloride is a potent, non-selective DNA and Topoisomerase II inhibitor. It affects p53, cGAS-STING, and MAPK signaling pathways by intercalating into DNA and inducing double-strand breaks, promoting apoptosis and immunogenic cell death.

Frequently Asked Questions

Question 1:
Why did the IC50 of it vary over time in our measurement?

Answer:
Sometimes the IC50 value might vary between different batch of compounds due to the slight differences in purity. If different IC50 was seen in the same batch of it, the problem may lies in the process of dissolvement. Make sure that you see no particles and the solution is clear with your stock solution.

Dilution Calculator

Calculate the dilution required to prepare a stock solution. The Selleck dilution calculator is based on the following equation:

Concentration _(start) x Volume _(start) = Concentration _(final) x Volume _(final)

This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2 ( Input Output )

*When preparing stock solutions always use the batch-specific molecular weight of the product found on the vial label and MSDS / COA (available online).
