Etoposide (VP-16) is a nonspecific inhibitor of topoisomerase II with an IC50 value of 59.2μM[1]. Etoposide inhibits DNA synthesis by inhibiting topoisomerase II activity, and can induce cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, and autophagy[2].
In vitro, treatment of HCT116 FBXW7+/+, FBXW7−/−, and p53−/− cells with Etoposide (0-1μM) for 72h inhibited cell growth in a dose-dependent manner with IC50 values of 0.945μM, 0.375μM, and 1.437μM, respectively[3]. Treatment of adherent C33a cells with Etoposide (5μM) for 48h induced marginal cell apoptosis and cell cycle G2/M arrest[4].
In vivo, Etoposide (80mg/kg) was injected intraperitoneally into adult Smc5 flox/del, Stra8-Cre cKO mice. After 8 days of exposure, spermatocyte defects were observed in the mice, with an increase in the number of enlarged round spermatids with two acrosomes and extra chromosomes [5]. Etoposide (50mg/kg) was injected intraperitoneally into mice inoculated with 3LL lung cancer cells, inducing the host immune system to recognize 3LL cells and increasing the survival rate of the mice to 60% [6].

|
Reaction Conditions |
0-1μM; 72h |
|
Applications |
Etoposide inhibited HCT116 FBXW+/+, FBXW-/-, and p53-/- in a dose-dependent manner with IC50 of 0.945 μM, 0.375 μM, and 1.437 μM, respectively. |
| Animal experiment [2]: | |
|
Animal models |
Adult Smc5 flox/del, Stra8-Cre cKO mice |
|
Preparation Method |
Adult Smc5 flox/del, Stra8-Cre cKO and control mice were injected intraperitoneally with a single dose of etoposide (80mg/kg body weight). After injection, the mice were monitored daily before being killed at 3, 5, or 8 d after treatment. |
|
Dosage form |
80mg/kg; i.p. |
|
Applications |
Following 8d of etoposide exposure, an increase in the number of enlarged spermatids, often with two acrosomes, was observed in the Smc5 flox/del, Stra8-Cre cKO. |
