| Bioactivity | Etoposide phosphate (BMY-40481) is a potent anti-cancer chemotherapy agent and a selective topoisomerase II inhibitor to prevent re-ligation of DNA strands. Etoposide phosphate is the phosphate ester prodrug of etoposide and is considered as active equivalent to Etoposide. Etoposide phosphate induces cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, and autophagy[1][2]. | ||||||||||||
| Invitro | Etoposide phosphate is a water-soluble derivative and probable prodrug of etoposide characterized by the presence of a phosphate group in position 4' of the E ring of the etoposide molecule[1].Etoposide phosphate (0-1 μM; 72 hours) inhibits HCT116 FBXW+/+, FBXW-/- and p53-/- as a dose-dependent manner, exhibits IC50 values of 0.945 μM; 0.375 μM; and 1.437 μM, respectively[2].Etoposide phosphate (25 μM; 6 hours) delays p53 recover in FBXW7-deficient cells. In addition, FBXW7 expression is disappeared in FBXW7-/- cells[2]. Cell Viability Assay[2] Cell Line: | ||||||||||||
