Product Overview:
Amonafide is a DNA-intercalating topoisomerase II poison.{59203} It reduces the formation of kinetoplast DNA minicircles, a marker of topoisomerase II activity, in a cell-free assay at 100 µM, but does not induce relaxation of supercoiled DNA, a marker of topoisomerase I activity, at the same concentration.{59204} Amonafide inhibits growth in a panel of 11 human cancer cell lines, including leukemia, gastric, breast, and lung cancer cells, with GI50 values ranging from 1 to 10 µM.{59205} It induces cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase and apoptosis in AGS gastric and Huh7 hepatoma cancer cells, respectively, when used at concentrations ranging from 2.5 to 10 µM. Amonafide (5 mg/kg) reduces primary tumor growth and decreases pulmonary metastasis in a murine H22 hepatoma model.{59206}

Cayman Chemical's mission is to help make research possible by supplying scientists worldwide with the basic research tools necessary for advancing human and animal health. Our utmost commitment to healthcare researchers is to offer the highest quality products with an affordable pricing policy.

Our scientists are experts in the synthesis, purification, and characterization of biochemicals ranging from small drug-like heterocycles to complex biolipids, fatty acids, and many others. We are also highly skilled in all aspects of assay and antibody development, protein expression, crystallization, and structure determination.

Over the past thirty years, Cayman developed a deep knowledge base in lipid biochemistry, including research involving the arachidonic acid cascade, inositol phosphates, and cannabinoids. This knowledge enabled the production of reagents of exceptional quality for cancer, oxidative injury, epigenetics, neuroscience, inflammation, metabolism, and many additional lines of research.

Our organic and analytical chemists specialize in the rapid development of manufacturing processes and analytical methods to carry out clinical and commercial GMP-API production. Pre-clinical drug discovery efforts are currently underway in the areas of bone restoration and repair, muscular dystrophy, oncology, and inflammation. A separate group of Ph.D.-level scientists are dedicated to offering Hit-to-Lead Discovery and Profiling Services for epigenetic targets. Our knowledgeable chemists can be contracted to perform complete sample analysis for analytes measured by the majority of our assays. We also offer a wide range of analytical services using LC-MS/MS, HPLC, GC, and many other techniques.
