Mechanism of Action

Description Dexrazoxane (ICRF-187) is an anticancer drug able to block mitosis and to arrest dividing cells. It is an iron chelator and provides cardioprotection against anthracycline toxicity.

In vitro

In vitro

Topoisomerase 2 (Top2) inhibition with dexrazoxane combined with dBET6 in HeLa cells increases DNA damage signaling at proximal time points.[1]

Cell Research Cell lines HeLa cells
Concentrations 50 μM J60
Incubation Time 4 h
Method

HeLa cells are treated with 50 μM dexrazoxane for 4 h. Cell lysates are used for detecting the levels of BRD4, RNAPIIpS2 and γH2AX by western blots.

In Vivo

In vivo

Dexrazoxane prevents doxorubicin induced late-onset cardiomyopathy and also protected the cardiac mitochondria from acquired ultrastructural, genetic and functional damage.

Working concentration: mg/ml;

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
