Vincristine

Synonyms: Leurocristine, NSC-67574, 22-Oxovincaleukoblastine

Vincristine (Leurocristine, NSC-67574, 22-Oxovincaleukoblastine) is a natural alkaloid isolated from the plant Vinca rosea Linn. with anti-tumor activity. Vincristine inhibits microtubule formation in mitotic spindle and binds to microtubule with Ki of 85 nM.

In vitro

Vincristine, a microtubule-destabilizing agent (MDA), inhibits the formation of microtubules and mitosis of the cancer cell, which is a victim of intratumoural metabolic resistance that has no important relevance with neither CYP3A4 nor CYP3A5.[2]

Cell Research Cell lines HepG2_EV, HepG2_CYP3A4, HepG_CYP3A5, HepG2_CYP2C8 cells
Concentrations 1 μM
Incubation Time 24, 48 and 72 h
Method

HepG2 sublines (100×104 cells/well) are seeded in 12-well plates and cultured until full confluence. Then, the media is removed, and the cells are exposed to 1 μM drug (docetaxel, paclitaxel or vincristine) or 0.01% DMSO (vehicle control). Samples are collected at 24, 48 and 72 h intervals using TRI Reagent, which is followed by RNA isolation. The RNA yield is assessed via a NanoDrop ND-1000 spectrophotometer, while its quality and integrity are verified by agarose gel electrophoresis.

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
