alkylation

Duocarmycin TM is a DNA alkylator. Duocarmycin TM is an exceptionally potent antitumor antibiotic.

Iodoacetamide, an alkylating agent, is commonly utilized for cysteine alkylation in proteomics sample preparation.

Streptozocin (NSC-85998) is an antibiotic that induces DNA methylation. Streptozocin is toxic to insulin-producing pancreatic islet B-cells and is commonly used in the construction of animal models of type 1 diabetes. The product is unstable in solution and is recommended to be dispensed now.

CEP-40125 (RXDX-107) is a DNA alkylating agent used for researching advanced solid tumors.

Sarmustine (SarCNU) is an alkylating agent with anticancer activity that inhibits the growth of prostate cancer cells via p53-dependent and p53-independent pathways.Sarmustine mediates the selection of P140K methylguanine-DNA-methyltransferase-transduced human CD34(+) cells in vitro.

DN-1289 is an orally available, blood-brain barrier-crossing, selective and potent inhibitor with an IC50 value of 17 nM for di-leucine zipper kinase (DLK) and 40 nM for leucine zipper-bearing kinase (LZK).DN-1289 significantly inhibited optic nerve crush (ONC)-induced p-c-Jun in a mouse model.

IACS-52825 is a selective and potent dual leucine zipper kinase (DLK) inhibitor that reverses para-mechanical aberrant pain in a CIPN mouse model for the study of neurological disorders.

Menadione (Vitamin K3) is a synthetic naphthoquinone without the isoprenoid side chain and biological activity, but can be converted to active vitamin K2, menaquinone, after alkylation in vivo.

Busulfan (Busulphan) is a synthetic derivative of dimethane-sulfonate with antineoplastic and cytotoxic properties. Although its mechanism of action is not fully understood, busulfan appears to act through the alkylation of DNA. Following systemic absorption of busulfan, carbonium ions are formed, resulting in DNA alkylation and DNA breaks and inhibition of DNA replication and RNA transcription.

Chlorambucil (CB-1348) is an orally-active antineoplastic aromatic nitrogen mustard. Chlorambucil alkylates and cross-links DNA during all phases of the cell cycle, resulting in disruption of DNA function, cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis.

Altretamine (ENT-50852) is an alkylating agent with antineoplastic activity.

Procarbazine hydrochloride (NSC-77213 HCl) is the hydrochloride salt of a methylhydrazine derivative with antineoplastic and mutagenic activities. Although the exact mode of cytotoxicity has not been elucidated, procarbazine, after metabolic activation, appears to inhibit the trans-methylation of methionine into transfer RNA (t-RNA), thereby preventing protein synthesis and consequently DNA and RNA synthesis. This agent may also undergo auto-oxidation, resulting in the formation of cytotoxic free radicals which damage DNA through an alkylation reaction.

Lomustine (NSC-79037) is an alkylating agent of value against both hematologic malignancies and solid tumors.

N-Ethylmaleimide (NEM) is a reagent for alkylation of free sulfhydryl groups, a cysteine protease inhibitor used in experimental biochemistry. N-Ethylmaleimide is also a deubiquitinating enzyme inhibitor that specifically inhibits phosphate transport in mitochondria.

Carmustine (bis-chloroethylnitrosourea) is a cell-cycle phase nonspecific alkylating antineoplastic agent.

4-Octyl Itaconate, a cell-permeable derivative of Itaconate, is an anti-inflammatory metabolite that activates Nrf2 via alkylation of KEAP1 and inhibits phosphorylation of STING.

O6-Benzylguanine is a guanine analog with antineoplastic activity,and is a potent O6-alkylguanine DNA alkyltransferase (AGT) inactivator.

Methyl methanesulfonate is a DNA alkylator that modifies adenine (3-methyladenine) and guanine (7-methyladenine) respectively, resulting in base mismatch and replication disorders.

Satraplatin (BMS182751) is an orally available antineoplastic platinum(IV) complex.Satraplatin has a favorable toxicity profile and appears to have clinical activity against a variety of malignancies.

Treosulfan (NSC 39069) is a bifunctional alkylating agent used in the treatment of advanced ovarian cancer.[2]

Miriplatin hydrate (SM-11355 (hydrate)) (MPT) is a novel platinum complex used in TACE that shows promise for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Miriplatin hydrate is a lipophilic platinum complex that can be easily suspended in Lipiodol and gradually releases active platinum compounds in tumor tissue.

1-Methyladenine is a DNA alkylation product that undergoes damage reversal through oxidative demethylation for repair purposes.
