Description

Antitumor reagent. Topoisomerase II inhibitor (IC50=59.2 µM) . Induces apoptosis by FasL. Activates p53 resulting in upregulated expression of TRAIL-R2 (DR5) and Bak to overcome TRAIL resistance in Bax-deficient human colon carcinoma cancer cells. Slightly soluble in methanol and acetone. For long term storage prepare aliquots and store at -20°C.  Induces apoptosis in mouse thymocytes and in HL-60 human leukemia cells.
