Product Description

Teniposide (VM-26; HSDB-6546; NSC-122819; CCRIS-2058; Vumon; Vehem; EPT; PTG) is a semisynthetic podophyllotoxin derivative and chemotherapeutic agent mainly used in the treatment of childhood acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL). It functions by combining with DNA and the enzyme topoisomerase II to form a ternary complex. This complex causes dose-dependent breaks in DNA, both single and double stranded, as well as protein cross-links, inhibition of DNA strand religation, and cytotoxicity. Teniposide acts during the cell cycle's late S or early G phases.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Topoisomerase II
ln Vitro
Teniposide is a topoisomerase II inhibitor. Teniposide (VM-26, 0.15–45 mg/L) has an IC50 of 0.35 mg/L and inhibits Tca8113 cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. Tca8113 cells undergo apoptosis when exposed to 5 mg/L of Teniposide. Cells in Tca8113 cells are arrested at the G2/M phase by Teniposide (5.0 mg/L)[2]. With an IC50 of 1.3?±?0.34 μg/mL, Teniposide is active on patient-derived primary cultured glioma cells when the cells have a high level of miR-181b. In comparison to control cells, Teniposide-treated cells exhibit reduced viability, and when MDM2 is suppressed, the IC50 drops from 5.86?±?0.36 μg/mL to 2.90?±?0.35 μg/mL. Via the mediation of MDM2, Teniposide also reduces the viability of glioma cells expressing high levels of miR-181b[3].
ln Vivo
Teniposide (0.5 mg/kg, i.p.) profoundly raises the frequencies of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes (MNPCEs), a finding that is directly linked to bone marrow toxicity due to the significant suppression of bone marrow. The frequencies of BrdU-labeled sperm are significantly reduced by Teniposide (24 mg/kg, i.p.). Additionally, Teniposide (12, 24 mg/kg, i.p.) significantly induces disomic sperm in male mouse germ cells[1].

*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.

  • 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
