Description

Fotemustine is a DNA-alkylating agent, with antitumor activity.

IC50 & Target

DNA Alkylator[1]

In Vitro

Fotemustine is a DNA-alkylating agent. Fotemustine (800 μM) decreases GSH and intracellular GSSG levels but increases the extracellular GSSG-levels rapidly in isolated rat hepatocytes[1]. Fotemustine shows inhibitory effect on several tumor cell lines, with IC50s ranging form 0.05 to 0.18 mM[2].

Cell Assay
[2]

Cell proliferation assays are performed using MTT. Briefly, cell suspensions containing 2 × 104 viable cells/mL are plated into 96-well dishes and allowed to attach for 48 h at 371C in a 5% CO2 atmosphere. The culture medium is then removed and the cells are incubated for two doubling times at 37°C in the culture medium containing fotemustine (10-3 to 10 mM). When tested, amifostine or WR-1065 (10-4 to 10 mM) is added before Fotemustine for 15 min. Control cultures are exposed to saline for 15 min and then allowed to grow for the same duration in complete culture medium[2].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
