Biochem/physiol Actions

AD 198 is a PKC-delta activator.
AD 198 is a PKC-delta activator. Phospholipid scramblase 3 (PLS3) is an enzyme that plays a critical role in mitochondrial morphology, functions, and apoptotic response. During apoptosis, activated protein kinase C-delta (PKC-delta) translocates to mitochondria and phosphorylates PLS3. Used to show that PLS3 is a critical downstream effector of PKC-delta in AD 198-induced apoptosis.

N-Benzyladriamycin-14-valerate (AD198) is a novel lipophilic anthracycline with greater in vivo antitumour activity than doxorubicin (DOX) in experimental model systems. Using sensitive and progressively DOX-resistant L1210 mouse leukaemia and B16-BL6 mouse melanoma lines, we have determined the cellular pharmacokinetics and

N-Benzyladriamycin-14-valerate (AD 198)-resistant murine J774.2 macrophage-like cells (A300) exhibited a novel mechanism of resistance in which P-glycoprotein was overexpressed without decreased AD 198 accumulation. Cross-resistance to Adriamycin (ADR), N-benzyladriamycin, and Adriamycin-14-valerate was due, at least in part, to reduced accumulation

The new lipophilic anthracycline N-benzyl-adriamycin-14-valerate (AD198) was evaluated for its activity in comparison to doxorubicin in P-glycoprotein (Pgp)-positive and -negative cell lines. AD198 and doxorubicin showed comparable antitumor activity in the Pgp-negative breast cancer cell line MCF-7 and the Pgp-negative

N-Benzyladriamycin-14-valerate (AD 198) is a highly lipophilic analogue of Adriamycin with novel cytotoxic mechanisms, greater in vivo antitumor activity, and the ability to circumvent multidrug resistance due to P-glycoprotein-mediated drug efflux or decreased topoisomerase II activity. To identify the mechanism(s)

Anthracycline antibiotics like doxorubicin (DOX) are known to exert their antitumor effects primarily via DNA intercalation and topoisomerase II inhibition. By contrast, the noncross-resistant cytoplasmically localizing DOX analogue, N-benzyladriamycin-14-valerate (AD 198), only weakly binds DNA and does not inhibit topoisomerase
