LMP744 HCl (Mj-III65, NSC706744; Mj-III-65, NSC-706744), the hydrochloride salt of LMP744, is a DNA intercalator and Topoisomerase I (Top1) inhibitor with anticancer activity. LMP744 produces persistent topoisomerase I cleavage complexes and can overcome multidrug resistance. Consistent with Top1 poisoning, protein-linked DNA breaks were detected in cells treated with LMP744 at nanomolar concentrations. Studies in human cells in culture found LMP744 to be cytotoxic. Furthermore, limited cross-resistance was observed in camptothecin-resistant cell lines. LMP744 also exhibits antitumor activity in mouse tumor xenografts.

Biological Activity
| ln Vitro | LMP744 (MJ-III-65) has a GI50 value of 0.1 μM for NCI60 cells[2]. In the S and G2 phases of the cell cycle, dose-dependent cell accumulation is induced by LMP744 (0.1–5 μM, 3 days) [2]. |
| ln Vivo | When given as a weekly intravenous bolus for four weeks in nude mice, LMP744 (MJ-III-65) (10-50 mg/kg) exhibits moderate effectiveness against human A253 and FaDu tumor xenografts with no obvious harm [1]. |
| Cell Assay |
Cytotoxicity assay[2] Cell Types: P388 and P388 Top1-deficient mouse leukemia cells. Tested Concentrations: 0.1-100 μM Incubation Duration: 3 days Experimental Results: Induces dose-dependent accumulation of cells in S and G2 phases of the cell cycle. |
| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Athymic nude mice (nu/nu, female, 20-25 g, 8-12 weeks old) were transplanted with A253 and FaDu human head and neck xenografts [1]. Doses: 10, 25, or 50 mg/kg/week, 4 weeks Route of Administration: intravenous (iv) (iv)bolus injection via tail vein Experimental Results: Moderate activity against human A253 and FaDu tumor xenografts with no significant toxicity. |

Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples. Injection Formulations (e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution.
