Jadomycin B

产品说明

一般描述

Jadomycin B, is produced by Streptomyces venezuelae fermentation. It is an angucycline antibiotic containing an unusual 8H-benz[b]oxazolo[3,2-f]-phenanthridine ring system and a rare carbohydrate, digitoxose.^1,2
Jadomycin B displays antimicrobial, anti-tumor, aurora-B kinase inhibition, DNA cleaving and more activities.^3,4,5,6
Jadomycin B was found to be active against a variety of staphylococci, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in a MIC of 1μg/ml.³ In addition, its anti-tumor activity was demonstrated as it kills drug-sensitive and multidrug-resistant breast cancer cell, through inhibition of type II topoisomerases and the induction of DNA damage and apoptosis. Jadomycin B (15 mM), 24-hour treatment significantly lowered the levels of topoisomerase IIa protein versus the vehicle control.⁴
It was also shown that Jadomycin B inhibits Aurora-B kinase activity by phosphorylation of histone H3 on Ser10 in a dose-dependent manner (10μg /mL Jadomycin B reduced H3 phosphorylation by 70%).⁵
Jadomycin B was also found to cleave DNA in the presence of Cu (II) by reducing it to Cu(I) which can further react with H₂O₂ to form hydroxyl radicals that causes DNA strand scission without the requirement of any external reducing agent. The EC50 value of Jadomycin B for single-strand scission was approximately 1.7μM.⁶
