Product Description

Aclarubicin (Aclacinon; Aclacin; Aclaplastin; Aclacinomycine; Jaclacin. ACM; Aclacinomycin A) is a natually occuring oligosaccharide and anthracycline anticancer antibiotic isolated from the bacterium Streptomyces galilaeus. Aclarubicin inhibits the synthesis of RNA and proteins as well as DNA replication and repair. It does this by intercalating into DNA and interacting with topoisomerases I and II.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Topoisomerase II; Topoisomerase I
ln Vitro
Aclacinomycin A (0-120 μM, 30 min) has an IC50 of 52 μM and suppresses rabbit reticulocytes' ubiquitin-ATP-dependent proteolytic activity in a dose-dependent reaction. On the other hand, it does not prevent ubiquitination [1].
Aclacinomycin A prevents ubiquitin-ATP-dependent proteolysis subsequent to ubiquitin's conjugation with proteins[1].
Aclacinomycin A (zero-2.4 μM, three hours) inhibits the catalytic activity of topo II [2].
Aclacinomycin A (0-1.8 μM, 3 h) inhibits the rate of V79 and irs-2 cell proliferation[2].
Aclacinomycin A emits fluorescence, and when fluorescence microscopy is carried out with the red filter (excitation 530-550 nm/emission 575 nm), human cervical cancer HeLa cells exposed to Aclacinomycin A show bright fluorescence signals in the cytoplasm[3].
ln Vivo
Aclacinomycin A (0.75-6 mg/kg, IP, daily) dose-dependently displays tumor growth in mice-based Leukemia P-388 model[4].
Aclacinomycin A (0.6-20 mg/kg, Orally, daily) shows an antitumor effect on leukemia L-1210[4].
Aclacinomycin A is highly well absorbed when given orally to mice, rats, and dogs. In mice, the oral LD50 (76.5 mg/kg) is approximately twice that of the IV LD50 (35.6 mg/kg)[4].
Cell Assay
ell Line: V79 and irs-2 cells
Concentration: 0, 0.006, 0.12, 1.2, and 2.4 μM
Incubation Time: 3 h
Result: Inhibited the topo II catalytic activity in a dose-dependent manner. The loss of topo II catalytic activity in ACLA-treated cells was in all cases significant compared with non-treated cells.
Animal Protocol
DBA/2, CDF1 (BALB/c×DBA/2) mice with Leukemia P-388 (90-110 g).
0.75 mg/kg, 1.5 mg/kg, 3 mg/kg, 6 mg/kg
Intraperitoneal administration daily for 10 days starting 3 hr after transplantation.

Note: Please be aware that the above formulations are for reference only. InvivoChem strongly recommends customers to read literature methods/protocols carefully before determining which formulation you should use for in vivo studies, as different compounds have different solubility properties and have to be formulated differently.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
