Synthetic inhibitors of DNA topoisomerase I and II.
A new type of synthetic inhibitor of DNA topoisomerase I and II was examined and several of these derivatives exhibited strong dual activity against these enzymes. This series of compounds showed high cytotoxic activities against cancer cells, but only a limited number of compounds showed any noticeable activity in an in vivo test against murine P388. Non-specific toxicity was observed in the i...
متن کاملTopoisomerase Inhibitors and Types of Them
Objective: In this paper, we have introduced topoisomerase inhibitors, mechanism of action and types of them. DNA topoisomerases are ubiquitous enzymes that catalyze essential enzymes to solve the topological problems accompanying key nuclear processes such as DNA replication, transcription, repair and chromatin assembly by introducing temporary single or double strand breaks in the DNA. Result...

متن کاملTopoisomerase I Inhibitors.
Topoisomerase I inhibitors are a new class of anticancer agents with a mechanism of action aimed at interrupting DNA replication in cancer cells, the result of which is cell death. Most if not all Topoisomerase I inhibitors are derivatives of the plant extract camptothecin. Irinotecan (CPT-11), a semi-synthetic derivative of camptothecin, is approved in the United States for the treatment of co...
متن کاملCytotoxic signalling by inhibitors of DNA topoisomerase II.
DNA topoisomerase (topo) II inhibitors either stabilize DNA-topo II complexes by blocking DNA religation (e.g. etoposide) or block the enzyme's catalytic activity (e.g. dexrazoxane). The former class of drugs causes direct DNA damage through topo II, while the latter class does not, but both classes cause apoptosis. We cloned the Fas ligand (FasL) promoter and coupled it to the luciferase gene....
