DNA Alkylator/Crosslinker

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.

Cisplatin (CDDP) is a DNA cross-linking agent. Cisplatin has antitumor activity and inhibits DNA synthesis by forming DNA adducts in cancer cells. Cisplatin also activates ferroptosis and induces autophagy.

Oxaliplatin (L-OHP) is a DNA alkylating agent, an inhibitor of DNA synthesis. Oxaliplatin causes DNA cross-linking damage, preventing DNA replication and transcription and leading to cell death. Oxaliplatin induces autophagy.

Temozolomide (TMZ) is a DNA alkylating agent with blood-brain barrier permeability and oral activity. Temozolomide has antitumor activity and antiangiogenic activity, and also induces apoptosis and autophagy. Temozolomide is stable under acidic conditions and hydrolyzes under neutral or slightly alkaline conditions.

Cyclophosphamide is an alkylating agent used in the treatment of several forms of cancer including leukemias, lymphomas and breast cancer.

N-Nitroso-N-methylurea is a nitrosourea compound with alkylating, carcinogenic and mutagenic properties. It targets a variety of animal organs, causes various cancers and degenerative diseases, and can be used in diazomethane synthesis.

Carboplatin (JM-8) is a cisplatin derivative, a DNA synthesis inhibitor. Carboplatin binds to DNA, inhibits replication and transcription, and induces cell death. Carboplatin has antitumor activity.

KCC-07 is a selective, potent and brain-penetrant inhibitor of methyl-CpG-binding domain protein 2(MBD2) with anticancer activity. KCC-07 prevents binding of MBD2 to methylated DNA and activates brain specific angiogenesis inhibitor 1 (BAI1) inducing anti

4-hydroperoxy cyclophosphamide (4-OOH-CY) is an active metabolite of Cyclophosphamide that induces hepatotoxicity.4-Hydroperoxy cyclophosphamide increases levels of glutaminase and aspartate aminotransferase, enhances inflammatory factors and oxidative markers, and Inhibits oxidoreductase activity.4-Hydroperoxy cyclophosphamide is used in the study of cancer and autoimmune diseases.

Cyclophosphamide hydrate is a DNA alkylating agent, an inhibitor of DNA synthesis. Cyclophosphamide hydrate has antitumor and immunosuppressive activities.

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

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.

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

Illudin M is a cytotoxic sesquiterpene from the fungus O. illudens that alkylates DNA. It has a cytotoxicity of 6-100 nM against HL-60 human leukemia cells.Illudin M has anticancer activity and is a pre-drug for the synthesis of anticancer compounds.

Illudin S (ILS) is a fungal sesquiterpene secondary metabolite with potent genotoxic and cytotoxic properties.

Semustine, a DNA alkylating agent, is a cancer chemotherapy compound that is nephrotoxic in patients with malignant melanoma receiving adjuvant chemotherapy for the adjuvant treatment of leukemia.

Ifosfamide (NSC-109724) alkylates and forms DNA crosslinks, thereby preventing DNA strand separation and DNA replication. Ifosfamide is a synthetic analog of the nitrogen mustard cyclophosphamide with antineoplastic activity. This agent is a prodrug that must be activated through hydroxylation by hepatic microsomal enzymes.

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.

Thio-TEPA (Tiofosyl) is a polyfunctional, organophosphorus alkylating agent with antineoplastic activity.

VAL-083 is an alkylating agent with antitumor activity that produces N7 methylation on DNA.

PK11000 is a p53 targeting compound, has anti-tumor activities through activation of unstable p53.

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.

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