Product Description

Cyclocytidine (formerly NSC-145668; Cyclo-C; NSC145668; Ancitabine) is a pyrimidine nucleoside-based prodrug of cytarabine that has to be activated through hydrolysis to cytarabine under in vivo conditions. It has been used to treat leukemia by blocking the synthesis of DNA. Because of its structural similarity to deoxycytidine, cyclocytidine can be incorporated into DNA and subsequently kill cancer cells.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro

In vitro activity: Cyclocytidine HCl (Ancitabine) is the prodrug of cytarabine. It shares structural similarities with human deoxycytidine and can be incorporated into human DNA before killing the cell. Rapidly dividing cells—which need DNA replication for mitosis—are the ones that are most impacted by cyclocytidine. The enzymes required for DNA synthesis, nucleotide reductase and DNA and RNA polymerases, are also inhibited by cyclocytidine. [1].

ln Vivo
Cyclocytidine is a potent immunosuppressive, antiviral, and antitumor agent in both humans and animals; complicated injection schedules are necessary to achieve the greatest inhibitory effects.[2] Leukemia is treated with cyclocytidine.[3]
Animal Protocol
Dissolved in Vehicle 122; 20 or 100 mg/kg/day; i.p. or s.c. administration

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO: 25~52 mg/mL (98.5~198.7 mM)
Water: ~44 mg/mL (~168.2 mM)
Ethanol: <1 mg/mL
Preparing Stock Solutions 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg
1 mM 3.8218 mL 19.1088 mL 38.2175 mL
5 mM 0.7644 mL 3.8218 mL 7.6435 mL
10 mM 0.3822 mL 1.9109 mL 3.8218 mL

*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

Instructions to calculate molar mass (molecular weight) of a chemical compound:
  • To calculate molar mass of a chemical compound, please enter the chemical/molecular formula and click the “Calculate’ button.
Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
  • Molecular mass (or molecular weight) is the mass of one molecule of a substance and is expressed in the unified atomic mass units (u). (1 u is equal to 1/12 the mass of one atom of carbon-12)
  • Molar mass (molar weight) is the mass of one mole of a substance and is expressed in g/mol.
