Irinotecan |
| Catalog No.GC11473 |
Irinotecan is a topoisomerase inhibitor used primarily for the treatment of colorectal cancer. Irinotecan binds to the topoisomerase I-DNA complex, preventing DNA strand reconnection and leading to DNA double-strand breaks and cell death.

Irinotecan is a topoisomerase inhibitor used primarily for the treatment of colorectal cancer. Irinotecan binds to the topoisomerase I-DNA complex, preventing DNA strand reconnection and leading to DNA double-strand breaks and cell death[1].
Irinotecan(2μM; 48h) treatment with Panc-1 and MIA PaCa-2 resulted in 57.5% reduction of migratory in Panc-1 cells and in a 53.9% in MIA PaCa-2 cells [1]. In the cell cycle analysis, Irinotecan (0.3 to 30μM for 24-48h ) increased the proportions at the S and G2/M phases of cell cycling in parallel with a decreased population at the G1 phase in Caco-2 and CW2 cells [2].
For xenografted HCT116 cells, Irinotecan (10mg/kg; i.p; 5days) can reduced tumors by 80% and mice urvival was again improved (>16weeks vs 12weeks in mock ) without any mouse toxicity[3]. Irinotecan (20mg/kg/day; ip; days 1–3, 8–10) were treat with Prostatic small cell carcinoma (SCC) arrested xenograft growth with a small reduction in tumor volume and only minor weight loss of the hosts (7%)[4]. Mice given a combination of Irinotecan (50mg/kg; ip; 1,13,19days ) had a decreased number of tumour cells in the peritoneal cavity as compared to non-treated mice but counts on macrophages, lymphocytes and neutrophils were higher than in non-treated mice[5].

| Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | LoVo and HT-29 cells |
Preparation Method | LoVo and HT-29 cells were exposed to different concentrations of irinotecan(0-80μg/ml; 24h ) to determine the IC50 values. |
Reaction Conditions | Irinotecan(0-80μg/ml; 24h ) |
Applications | The IC50 values of LoVo cells is 6μg/ml, and for HT-29 cells is 12μg/ml. |
| Animal experiment [2]: | |
Animal models | Ehrlich ascites tumour cells model |
Preparation Method | The mice were administered quercetin and naringin (100mg/kg ) daily for 3 consecutive days, beginning on day 3 after i.p. injection of Ehrlich ascites tumour cells. Irinotecan was administered i.p. at a dose of 50mg/kg on days 1, 13 and 19 . |
Dosage form | Irinotecan: 50mg/kg; ip; 1,13,19days |
Applications | Mice given a combination of irinotecan and flavonoids had a significantly decreased number of tumour cells in the peritoneal cavity as compared to non-treated mice but counts on macrophages, lymphocytes and neutrophils were significantly higher than in non-treated mice. |

| General tips | Please select the appropriate solvent to prepare the stock solution according to the
solubility of the product in different solvents; once the solution is prepared, please store it in
separate packages to avoid product failure caused by repeated freezing and thawing.Storage method
and period of the stock solution: When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months; when stored
at -20°C, please use it within 1 month. To increase solubility, heat the tube to 37°C and then oscillate in an ultrasonic bath for some time. |
