Description

Mitoxantrone dihydrochloride is a potent topoisomerase II inhibitor. Mitoxantrone dihydrochloride also inhibits protein kinase C (PKC) activity with an IC50 of 8.5 μM. Mitoxantrone dihydrochloride induces apoptosis of B-CLL (B-chronic lymphocytic leukaemia) cells. Mitoxantrone dihydrochloride shows antitumor activity[1][2][3][4].

Topoisomerase II

 

In Vitro

Mitoxantrone dihydrochloride inhibits PKC in a competitive manner with respect to histone H1, and its Ki value is 6.3 μM and in a non-competitive manner with respect to phosphatidylserine and ATP[1].
Mitoxantrone dihydrochloride (0.5 μg/mL, 48 h) induces a decrease in B-CLL cells. Mitoxantrone dihydrochloride induces DNA fragmentation and the proteolytic cleavage of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), demonstrating that the cytotoxic effect of Mitoxantrone dihydrochloride is due to induction of apoptosis[2].
Mitoxantrone dihydrochloride shows cytotoxicity to human breast carcinoma cell lines MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 with IC50 values of 18 and 196 nM, respectively[3].

In Vivo

Mitoxantrone dihydrochloride (IP, 0-3.2 mg/kg/day) produces a statistically significant number of 60-day survivors at 1.6 mg/kg in mice with IP implanted L1210 leukemia[4].
Mitoxantrone dihydrochloride (IV, 0-3.2 mg/kg/day) shows effective antitumor activities and produces a 60% ILS (increase in lifespan) at 3.2 mg/kg in SC implanted Lewis lung carcinoma[4].

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: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.83 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 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)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.83 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly. It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.
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:  PBS

    Solubility: 2 mg/mL (3.87 mM); Clear solution; Need ultrasonic and warming and heat to 60°C

Cell Assay
[3]

The human breast carcinoma cell lines MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 are seeded in standard 96-well plates. One day after seeding, the culture medium is changed and replaced by medium containing different concentration of Mitoxantrone (10-5 to 5 μM) with or without DHA (30 μM) during 7 days. Viability of cells are measured as a whole by the tetrazolium salt assay[3].

MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Administration
[4]

Mice: Mitoxantrone is tested for antitumor activity against experimental tumors in mice and the results are compared with those of seven antitumor antibiotics. The drugs are given IP or IV, in general on days 1, 5, and 9 following tumor inoculation. Mitoxantrone is given IP at the optimal dose (1.6 mg/kg/day; as a free base)[4].

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.
