Bioactivity | MitoTam bromide, hydrobromide, a Tamoxifen derivative[1], is an electron transport chain (ETC) inhibitor. MitoTam bromide, hydrobromide reduces mitochondrial membrane potential in senescent cells and affects mitochondrial morphology[2]. MitoTam bromide, hydrobromide is an effective anticancer agent, suppresses respiratory complexes (CI-respiration) and disrupts respiratory supercomplexes (SCs) formation in breast cancer cells[1][2]. |
Invitro | MitoTam (0.5 μM-56 μM; 24 hours) kills breast cancer cell Lines and nonmalignant cells with an IC50 range from 0.65 μM to 55.9 μM[1].MitoTam (2.5 μM; 2-24 hours) results in stronger activation of the apoptotic pathway in MCF7 Her2 high cells compared with mock MCF7 cells[1].MitoTam (0.05 μM-1 μM; 3 days) causes a concentration-dependent induction of apoptosis in breast cancer cells, while there was no effect for non-malignant breast epithelial cells[2] Cell Viability Assay[1] Cell Line: |
