Amonafide, a naphthalimides DNA intercalator, is a potent topoisomerase II inhibitor that inhibits tumor proliferation and progression. It appears that Amonafide inhibits melanoma progression through inhibition of the AKT/mTOR signaling pathway.
DNA intercalator and potent topoisomerase II inhibitor
Expert review of hematology, 5(1), 17-26 (2012-01-26)
Development of the novel topoisomerase II inhibitor, amonafide, began almost 40 years ago. The drug was selected for further investigation owing to evidence of marked antineoplastic efficacy in preclinical models of cancer. When its usefulness in the treatment of various
