  • Etoposide,33419-42-0,IC-0238514
  • Etoposide,33419-42-0,IC-0238514

    Etoposide (VP-16) is the first agent recognized as a topoisomerase II inhibitor of anticancer drug with IC50 of 59.2 μM.
    The activity of the topoisomerase II enzyme on re-ligation of DNA strands is interrupted by etoposide. A ternary complex with DNA is formed by etoposide, and causes DNA strands to break [1]. The enzyme was more important in cancer cell than healthy cells, because cancer cells divided more rapidly. So etoposide induced apoptosis of the cancer cells [2]. Etoposide exhibited cytotoxic activity against HepG2 and MOLT-3 cancer cells with IC50 of 30.16 μM and 0.051μM [3]. The IC50 values of etoposide against the tumor cell lines of BGC-823, HeLa, and A549 were 43.74 ± 5.13, 209.90 ± 13.42, and 139.54 ± 7.05 μM, respectively [4].
