General description

Cyclophosphamide (CYC) is a cytotoxic alkylating agent.[1] It is activated by the cytochrome P-450 enzyme system in the liver.[2] It has immunomodulatory functionality and inhibits humoral and cellular immunity.[3]Cyclophosphamide exhibits anti-cancer and immunosuppressant activities.[4] In the body, cyclophosphamide is converted by the liver to an active alkylating 4-hydroxycyclophosphamide metabolite, thereby showing its anti-neoplastic effects.[5]

Application

Cyclophosphamide monohydrate has been used:
  • to test its antitumor effect on TC-1 tumor cells[6]
  • as a component of multidrug solution for isolation of resistant human burkitt lymphoma cell line[7]
  • in testing antitumor immunity in mouse tumor cell lines[8]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Cyclophosphamide is a cytotoxic nitrogen mustard derivative widely used in cancer chemotherapy. It cross-links DNA, causes strand breakage, and induces mutations. Its clinical activity is associated with a decrease in aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 (ALDH1) activity.
