Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Ametantrone (AM) is a synthetic 9,10-anthracenedione bearing two (hydroxyethylamino)ethylamino residues at positions 1 and 4; along with other anthraquinones and anthracyclines, it shares a polycyclic intercalating moiety and charged side chains that stabilize DNA binding. Ametantrone is the second anthracene derivative to enter clinical trials.

More Info
Ametantrone is anticancer drug candidate targeting DNA. Ametantrone induces interstrand DNA cross-links in HeLa S3 cells. These cross-links were observed only in cellular system suggesting that metabolism of the drugs is a necessary step leading to DNA cross-linking. Biologically inactive analogue of mitoxantrone, compound NSC 321458, did not induce cross-links in DNA of tumour cells which suggests that DNA cross-linking is associated with the cytotoxic and anti-tumour activity of these compounds.
