Mitoxantrone is an antitumor anthrandione derivative. As a potent inhibitor of topoisomerase II, Mitoxantrone can inhibit DNA replication and induce single and double strand breaks through hydrogen bond insertion into DNA. Mitoxantrone is an inhibitor of mitochondrial calcium monotransporter (MCU), which can inhibit calcium entering into mitochondria and prevent mitochondrial calcium overload [1-3]. Mitoxantrone also inhibits protein kinase C (PKC) activity with an IC50 of 8.5 µM.
Mitoxantrone(0.5µg/ml; 48h) induced DNA fragmentation and the proteolytic cleavage of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), the cytotoxic effect of mitoxantrone was due to induction of apoptosis[4]. Mitoxantrone (50 nM; 24 h) reduced the triglyceride (TG) levels and total cholesterol levels in LMH cells(a steatosis cell model). Mitoxantrone improves hepatic steatosis in broilers as well as reduces circulating lipid levels and fat accumulation in broilers[5].
After mitoxantrone treatment(0-3.2 mg/kg/day; i.p; on days 1, 5, and 9 following tumor inoculation), the increase life span (ILS) of tumor-bearing mice increased by more than 100%[6]. Mitoxantrone persistently suppresses B cells in vivo and led to an enrichment of neutrophils and immunomodulatory CD8(low) T cells[7].
