Product Description
Anticancer agent. Inhibits carcinogenesis at the initiation stage but has been shown to enhance tumor incidence at a post-initiation stage. Inhibits the expression of cyclin-dependent kinase 6 (CDK6) and induces G1 cell cycle arrest independent of estrogen receptor signalling. Causes a dose-dependent increase in E-cadherin and BRCA1 expression.

HAZARD: MAY BE CARCINOGENIC.

Product Description
Activates protein kinase C (PKC). Induces apoptosis. Anticancer agent. Shows potent antileukemic activity in the P388 mouse assay. Displays unusually high mouse ear inflammatory activity, even though the 20-hydroxy group is blocked with a benzoate ester. It appears likely that this high potency is due to metabolic cleavage of the 20-benzoate group, which releases the more potent ingenol 3-benzoate.

Product Description
A member of the camptothecin drug family, and an inhibitor of the nuclear enzyme topoisomerase I, which is involved in cellular DNA replication and transcription. During replication topoisomerase I mediates the relaxation of super coiled DNA, and its inhibition results in breakage of the DNA chain and likely induce apoptosis. Irinotecan is, therefore, an attractive target for anticancer drug development. Currently it is used for the treatment of small cell lung cancer and advanced colorectal cancer.
