CAS#: 75443-99-1 (HCl)

Description: Aclarubicin is an oligosaccharide anthracycline antineoplastic antibiotic isolated from the bacterium Streptomyces galilaeus. Aclarubicin intercalates into DNA and interacts with topoisomerases I and II, thereby inhibiting DNA replication and repair and RNA and protein synthesis. Aclarubicin is antagonistic to other agents that inhibit topoisomerase II, such as etoposide, teniposide and amsacrine. This agent is less cardiotoxic than doxorubicin and daunorubicin.

Product Data:
Biological target: Aclacinomycin A hydrochloride (Aclarubicin hydrochloride) shows discrete specificity for the CTRL (chymotrypsin-like) activity of the 20S proteasome. Aclacinomycin A hydrochloride is also a dual inhibitor of topoisomerase I and II.
In vitro activity: ACR-induced apoptosis was assessed by caspase-3/7 activity. The caspase-3/7 activity after 6-h ACR treatment was remarkably increased at 0.2 and 0.5 μM in HL-60 cells (0.2 μM, p<0.01; 0.5 μM, p<0.001), and at 0.5 μM in HP100 cells (p<0.001). Caspase-3/7 in HL-60 cells had significant higher activity than that in HP100 cells at 0.2 and 0.5 μM (Figure 2B) (0.2 μM, p<0.001; 0.5 μM, p<0.05). These events were in good agreement with DNA ladder formation induced by ACR. Reference: Anticancer Res. 2019 Jul;39(7):3443-3451. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31262868/
