    Description

    Irinotecan hydrochloride ((+)-Irinotecan hydrochloride) is a topoisomerase I inhibitor mainly used to treat colon cancer and rectal cancer[1].

    IC50 & Target[1]

    Topoisomerase I

     

    In Vitro

    Irinotecan hydrochloride is a topoisomerase I inhibitor. Irinotecan inhibits the growth of LoVo and HT-29 cells, with IC50s of 15.8 ± 5.1 and 5.17 ± 1.4 μM, respectively, and induces similar amounts of cleavable complexes in both in LoVo and HT-29 cells[2]. Irinotecan suppresses the proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC), with an IC50 of 1.3 μM[3].

    In Vivo

    Irinotecan hydrochloride (CPT-11 hydrochloride, 5 mg/kg) significantly inhibits the growth of tumors by intratumoral injection daily for 5 days, on two consecutive weeks in rats, and such effects also occur via continuous intraperitoneal infusion by osmotic minipump into mice. However, Irinotecan (10 mg/kg) shows no effect on the growth of tumor by i.p[1]. Irinotecan (CPT-11, 100-300 mg/kg, i.p.) apparently suppresses tumor growth of HT-29 xenografts in athymic female mice by day 21. The two groups of Irinotecan (125 mg/kg) plus TSP-1 (10 mg/kg per day) or Irinotecan (150 mg/kg) in combination TSP-1 (20 mg/kg per day) are nearly equally effective and inhibit tumor growth 84% and 89%, respectively, and both are more effective than Irinotecan alone at doses of 250 and 300 mg/kg[3].

    In Vivo:

    Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

    For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
    To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
    The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

    • Protocol 1

      Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

      Solubility: ≥ 6 mg/mL (9.63 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 6 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (60.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

      Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
    • Protocol 2

      Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 6 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (60.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Cell Assay
    [2]

    Exponentially growing cells are seeded in 20 cm2 dishes with an optimal cell number for each cell line (20,000 for LoVo cells, 100,000 for HT-29 cells). They are treated 2 days later with increasing concentrations of irinotecan or SN-38 for one cell doubling time (24 h for LoVo cells, 40 h for HT-29 cells). After washing with 0.15 M NaCl, the cells are further grown for two doubling times in normal medium, detached from the support with trypsin-EDTA and counted in a hemocytometer. The IC50 values are then estimated as the drug concentrations responsible for 50% growth inhibition as compared with cells incubated without drug[2].

    Animal Administration
    [1]

    Irinotecan has been administered by intratumoral injection at 0.1 cc volume of the appropriate solution, for a doses of 5 mg/kg daily for 5 days, on two consecutive weeks, followed by a 7-days rest period, referred to as one cycle of therapy. Rats receive three cycles over a period of 8 weeks. Control animals receive 0.1 cc of sterile 0.9% sodium chloride solution by intratumoral injection in the same rule of administration as that of animals of group II[1].

    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.
