Product Description

Chlorambucil (CB-1348; WR-139013; CB 1348; WR 139013; chloraminophen; Chlorbutin; chlorbutine; chlorbutinum; Leukersan; Leukoran) is an approved antitumor medication mainly used in the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia. It functions as an oral-active nitrogen mustard alkylating agent by cross-linking and alkylating DNA at every stage of the cell cycle, which causes apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, and disruption of DNA function.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
DNA Alkylator
ln Vitro
By enhancing the complementary chain of DNA molecules, chlorambucil inhibits the growth of tumor cells by causing an alkalinization-induced cross-reaction. Chlorambucil (0, 2.5, 5, 10 μM) significantly enhanced the expression of DR4 and DR5 mRNA in Raji cells while having a minor blocking impact on them. Rati cells treated with 10 μM chlorambucil and 80 ng/mL of tumor factor-related phosphate ligand (TRAIL) expressed DR4 and DR5 mRNA. Chlorambucil is a DNA alkylating agent at high concentrations and a ligand for nuclear protein synthesis, particularly proteome production, at low concentrations. While long-term treatment maintenance is linked to p53 gene alterations that cause subsequent cancers, increasing doses are linked to a higher frequency of cell sterilization [4].
ln Vivo
Ehrlich ascites cancer can be treated with levamisole (5 mg/kg) and chlorambucil (0.2 mg/kg, po) in combination to increase the anti-cancer effect and improve the transparency and anti-cancer rate of the disease. Mice's kidneys and liver are negatively impacted by it [2].
Cell Assay
After being broken down by trypsin into a single cell suspension, cultured cells at the log-growth phase are seeded at a density of 1000 cells per well into 96-well plates. The plate is set up in a 37°C, 5% CO2 chamber. Cells are treated with TRAIL at 0, 20, 40, and 80 ng/mL or chlorambucil at 0, 2.5, 5, and 10 μM for 48 hours after attached growth for 24 hours. After adding 10 μL of CCK-8 reagent to each well, the mixture is incubated for 4 hours at 37°C. Subsequently, a micro-plate reader measures the absorbance values at 450 nm. For every treatment group, six parallel samples are run. Rate of cell proliferation (%) = mean value of control group × 100% / mean value of experimental group[1].
Animal Protocol
Mice: Swiss female mice are split into five groups at random (20 mice in each group). Group 1 is maintained as the control group. Group 2 is administered 2.5 × 106 Ehrlich ascites carcinoma cells intraperitoneally. Group 3 is given oral treatment with chlorambucil at a dose of 0.2 mg/kg body weight. Group 4 is given oral treatment with levamisole at a dose of 5 mg/kg body weight. Group 5 is given daily oral treatment with a combination of chlorambucil and levamisole, administered through a bent stainless steel stomach tube[2].

*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
