Purity: ≥98%
Exatecan mesylate (DX-8951) is the methylate of Exatecan, which is a semisynthetic analog of camptothecin with improved water solubility. It has antineoplastic activity and is a potent inhibitor of DNA topoisomerase I, with an IC50 of 2.2 μM (0.975 μg/mL). By maintaining the cleavable complex between topoisomerase I and DNA and preventing the ligation of DNA breaks, exatecan mesylate inhibits topoisomerase I activity. This prevents DNA replication and causes apoptotic cell death. This substance is more potent than camptothecin and other camptothecin analogs and does not require enzymatic activation.

ln Vitro |
Exatecan Mesylate exhibits potent inhibition of topoisomerase I along with potency against a battery of thirty-two malignant cell lines in vitro. Exatecan Mesylate exhibits anti-proliferative activity approximately 6 and 28 times higher than that of SN-38 or SK&F 10486-A, respectively. [1]
|
ln Vivo |
Three intravenous dosages of Exatecan Mesylate given at 4-day intervals have been shown to have more antitumor activity in mice than either CPT-11 or SK&F 10486-A when used against human gastric adenocarcinoma SC-6 xenografts. Additionally, it defeated P-glycoprotein-mediated multidrug resistance. These findings imply that Exatecan Mesylate is a promising therapeutic agent with strong antitumor activity.[1]

Enzyme Assay |
SDS buffer (10 mM HEPES, 2 mM orthovanadate, 10 mM NaF, 10 mM pyrophosphate, 1 mMPMSF, 10 µg/mL leupeptin, 10% 2-mercaptoethanol, 10% glycerol, 8% SDS, 42 mM Tris-HCl, 0.002% bromophenol blue, pH 7.4) is used to lyse cells (5×106). Protein from the lysates of the entire cell is separated using a 7.5% polyacrylamide gel and then blotted onto nitrocellulose membrane. First, horseradish peroxidase-conjugated protein A is applied to the membrane, followed by an anti-Topo I human antibody treatment. ECL reagents are used to detect the Topo I-specific band. In order to procure a nuclear extract, five hundred seventy-seven cells are cleaned using an ice-cold buffer (2 mM K2HPO4, 5 mM MgCl2, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM EGTA, 0.1 mM dithiothreitol), reconstituted in a buffer that contains 0.35% Triton-X100 and PMSF, and subsequently placed on ice for ten minutes. The obtained lysates are centrifuged, and the precipitates are subsequently left to incubate for one hour at 4°C in a buffer containing 0.35 M NaCl. A protein assay kit is used to measure the protein concentration of the supernatant (nuclear extract) following centrifugation (18,000 g, 10 min). Western blotting analysis employing anti-Topo I antibody is used to analyze the same quantity of nuclear protein[3].

Cell Assay |
MTT assay is used to measure the number of viable cells at the end of the incubation period in growth inhibition experiments, which are carried out in 96-well flat-bottomed microplates. After plating and growing 500–20,000000 cells/well in 150 μL of medium for 24 hours (P388, CCRF–CEM, and K562 cells for 4 hours), the drug (such as Exatecan Mesylate in 150 μL of medium/well) or the medium alone (as a control) is added, and the cells are cultured for an extra 3 days. The plates are incubated for 4 hours and centrifuged at 800 g for 5 minutes after adding MTT (20 μL/well, 5 mg/mL in phosphate-buffered saline). The medium is then removed, and the blue dye that forms is dissolved in 150 μL of DMSO. A Microplate Reader model 3550 is used to measure the absorbance at 540 nm[1].

Animal Protocol |
For therapeutic purposes, mice are randomized into five groups of five at three weeks following orthotopic implantation of BxPC-3-GFP and MIA-PaCa-2-GFP. Group 1 is the negative control, getting no medical attention. Exatecan Mesylate is administered to Groups 2 and 3 at a dose of 25 and 15 mg/kg, respectively. LY 188011 treatments are administered to groups 4 and 5, at doses of 300 and 150 mg/kg, respectively. Mice are randomized into three groups of twenty at six weeks following BxPC-3-GFP orthotopic implantation in order to provide treatment. Group 1 is the negative control, getting no medical attention. Group 3 is administered 300 mg/kg/dose of LY 188011, while Group 2 is treated with 25 mg/kg/dose of Exatecan Mesylate. The dosage for both medications is taken once a week for three weeks, stopped for two weeks, and then resumed for an additional three weeks. Weekly measurements are made of the primary tumor size and body weights in both early and late cancer models. The formula for calculating tumor volumes is a × b2 × 0.5, in which a and b stand for the larger and smaller diameters, respectively. When the research is over, mice are killed and examined. We record the final tumor weights and the primary tumor and metastases' direct GFP images for every mouse. TWt and TWc are the mean tumor weights of the treated and control groups, respectively, and the formula for calculating the tumor growth index (IR) is IR (%) = (1 − TWt/TWc) × 100[2].

Additional Infomation |
Exatecan Mesylate Anhydrous is the anhydrous, mesylate salt form of exatecan, a semisynthetic, water-soluble derivative of camptothecin, with antineoplastic activity. Upon administration, exatecan mesylate inhibits topoisomerase I activity by stabilizing the cleavable complex between topoisomerase I and DNA and inhibiting re-ligation of DNA breaks, thereby inhibiting DNA replication and triggering apoptotic cell death.
