Product Description

Dp44mT is a novel and potent iron chelator with DNA-damaging activity mediated by top2a inhibition and with selective antitumor activity. In the human breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231, Dp44mT specifically inhibits topoisomerase IIα, with a GI50 value of ~100 nmol/L. In comparison to wild type cells, Nalm-6 leukemic top2α+/- cells expressed ~57% more top2α enzyme in control experiments. Comparatively to top2α+/+ cells, treated with Dp44mT at 100 nmol/L, top2α+/- cells displayed partial resistance to the drug's cytotoxic effects. The top2α+/+ cells displayed 31.7% sub-G1 containing cells following exposure to Dp44mT at 100 nmol/L, compared to the top2α+/- cells' 9.4%.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Iron chelator
ln Vitro
Dp44mT shows pronounced antiproliferative effects in SK-N-MC, SK-Mel-28, and MCF-7 cells with IC50 of 30 nM, 60 nM, and 60 nM, respectively, while no effects on normal MRC-5 fibroblasts. In SK-N-MC neuroepithelioma and M109 cells, Dp44mT reduces the amount of Fe that cells take up from Fe-Tf and triggers cell apoptosis. [1] When topoisomerase topo2 is specifically targeted by Dp44mT in MDA-MB-231 cells, DNA damage results. [2] By stealing control of lysosomal P-glycoprotein (Pgp), Dp44mT, a Pgp substrate, also defeats multidrug resistance. [3]
ln Vivo
Dp44mT (0.4 mg/kg, i.v.) inhibits tumor growth in CD2F1 mice carrying M109 tumors in a dose-dependent manner. [1]
Enzyme Assay
For DNA topoisomerase II assays, the 5' ends of single stranded oligonucleotides or the 161-bp fragment from pBluescript SK(-) phagemid DNA are labeled with [32P]ATP and T4 polynucleotide kinase. To remove the unincorporated label, labeling mixtures are then centrifuged through Mini Quick Spin DNA columns (for pSK fragments) or Oligo columns (for oligonucleotides). The reaction mixture is heated to 95 °C and overnight cooled to room temperature in 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.8), 100 mM NaCl, and 1 mM EDTA before being annealed to the complementary strand of the oligonucleotides. DNA substrates (10 pmol/reaction) are incubated with 500 ng of top2a or top2h in 10 L of reaction buffer at 25°C for the indicated times in the presence or absence of Dp44mT. SDS (final concentration of 0.5%) is added to stop reactions. Samples are separated on polyacrylamide denaturing gels at 16% (for pSK DNA) or 20% (for oligonucleotides) denaturing concentrations (7 M urea). A PhosphorImager[1] is used for imaging and quantitation.
Cell Assay
DFO, 311, 3-aminopyridine-2-carboxaldehyde thiosemicarbazone, doxorubicin, and the DpT series of chelators (0-25 μM) are incubated with and without the cells for 72 hours at 37°C. Using the MTT assay, the chelators' impact on cell proliferation is investigated.
Animal Protocol
Dissolved in Propylene glycol; 0.4 mg/kg, twice daily; i.v. injection
CD2F1 mice bearing M109 tumors

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO: ~57 mg/mL (~199.7 mM)
Water: <1 mg/mL
Ethanol: ~47 mg/mL (~164.7 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (8.76 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (8.76 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.

*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.

  • 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
