Product Description
Cytarabine triphosphate (Ara-CTP) trisodium, an active metabolite of cytarabine, is a competitive inhibitor of DNA synthesis. Intracellular cytarabine triphosphate trisodium levels can be used to predict the chemosensitivity of leukemic blasts to cytarabine.
Cytarabine triphosphate trisodium (Ara-CTP trisodium) is the active triphosphate metabolite of the anticancer drug cytarabine (Ara-C). It is a nucleoside analog that inhibits DNA polymerase and incorporates into DNA, leading to chain termination and cell death. This compound is used in research on leukemia and other cancers where cytarabine is a standard chemotherapeutic agent.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Cytarabine triphosphate targets DNA polymerase and DNA synthesis. As a triphosphate nucleotide analog, it competes with deoxycytidine triphosphate (dCTP) for incorporation into growing DNA strands during replication. Once incorporated, the arabinose sugar moiety causes steric hindrance that prevents further DNA chain elongation, leading to chain termination and DNA strand breakage. This results in S-phase-specific cell death.
ln Vitro
In vitro, Cytarabine triphosphate is the active metabolite responsible for the cytotoxic effects of cytarabine. It inhibits DNA polymerase activity and is incorporated into DNA, causing chain termination. The compound is used in cell-based assays to study the mechanisms of cytarabine resistance and to evaluate the activity of cytarabine analogs. Its potency is measured by IC50 values in various leukemia cell lines. The trisodium salt form enhances aqueous solubility for biochemical studies.
ln Vivo
In vivo, Cytarabine triphosphate is formed intracellularly from cytarabine through sequential phosphorylation by deoxycytidine kinase and other nucleoside kinases. The active metabolite is responsible for the antitumor activity of cytarabine in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and other hematological malignancies. The compound itself is not administered as a drug but is studied to understand cytarabine pharmacology and resistance mechanisms.
Enzyme Assay
Non-cellular enzyme assays for Cytarabine triphosphate involve measuring its inhibition of DNA polymerase activity. The compound is incubated with purified DNA polymerase, a DNA template, and competing dCTP. DNA synthesis is monitored by incorporating radiolabeled nucleotides or by using fluorescent detection methods. The compound's ability to inhibit DNA polymerase and be incorporated into DNA is assessed. These assays confirm the mechanism of action of cytarabine.
Cell Assay
In vitro cellular experiments with Cytarabine triphosphate are limited due to the compound's poor cell permeability. However, cytarabine is used in cell-based assays, and its intracellular conversion to Ara-CTP is measured. Cells are treated with cytarabine, and Ara-CTP levels are quantified by HPLC or LC-MS/MS. The correlation between Ara-CTP accumulation and cytotoxicity is assessed. These studies are used to understand cytarabine resistance mechanisms.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal experiments with cytarabine involve administering the prodrug and measuring Ara-CTP levels in tissues. Tumor-bearing mice are treated with cytarabine, and the accumulation of Ara-CTP in tumor cells and normal tissues is measured. Pharmacodynamic studies correlate Ara-CTP levels with antitumor efficacy and toxicity. These studies are used to optimize dosing schedules and to evaluate new cytarabine formulations.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Cytarabine triphosphate trisodium has a molecular weight of approximately 510.13 (trisodium salt). The compound is the active metabolite of cytarabine. It is typically stored at -20°C and protected from moisture. It is soluble in water and aqueous buffers. The compound is for research use only and is not intended for human therapeutic administration. Purity is typically ≥95%.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicity data for Cytarabine triphosphate are related to the toxicity profile of cytarabine. The active metabolite causes myelosuppression, gastrointestinal toxicity, and other side effects associated with cytarabine therapy. As a research reagent, standard laboratory safety precautions should be followed when handling the compound. The compound is for research use only and not for human therapeutic applications.
