Dacarbazine citrate  (Synonyms: Imidazole Carboxamide citrate)

Cat. No.: HY-B0078A
Handling Instructions Technical Support

Dacarbazine citrate is a cell cycle nonspecific antineoplastic alkylating agent. Dacarbazine citrate inhibits T and B lymphoblastic response, with IC50 values of 50 and 10 μg/mL, respectively. Dacarbazine Citrate can be used for the research of apoptosis and various cancers such as metastatic malignant melanoma.

    Description

    Dacarbazine citrate is a cell cycle nonspecific antineoplastic alkylating agent. Dacarbazine citrate inhibits T and B lymphoblastic response, with IC50 values of 50 and 10 μg/mL, respectively. Dacarbazine Citrate can be used for the research of apoptosis and various cancers such as metastatic malignant melanoma[1][2].

    In Vitro

    Dacarbazine citrate has less pronounced inhibition of mitogenesis with IC50 values of 50 and 10 μg/mL for T and B cells, respectively[2].
    Dacarbazine citrate (30 μM, 0-14 min) evokes a concentration-dependent calcium response in hTRPA1-HEK293 cells with an EC50 value of 23 μM and selectively activates the human TRPA1 channel[3].
    Dacarbazine citrate (100-10,000 μM, 24 h) has cytotoxic action on B16-F10 melanoma cells[3].

    MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

    Cell Viability Assay[3]

    Cell Line: B16-F10 cell
    Concentration: 100-10,000 μM
    Incubation Time: 24 h
    Result: Reduced cell viability to 3,000 and 10,000 uM, with an inhibition percentage of 62 ± 2% after 24 h of incubation.
    In Vivo

    Dacarbazine citrate (1 mg/kg, i.p.) evokes a concentration-dependent calcium response and the maximum calcium response with an EC50 value of 16 μM in a subset of cells of cultured mouse DRG neurons and excites TRPA1 in rodent sensory neurons[3].
    Dacarbazine citrate (1 mg/kg, i.p.; 1, 3, 5 and 7 days for chronic pain or 1 mg/kg, i.p. for acute treatment) induces mechanical and cold allodynia in mice[3].
    Dacarbazine citrate-induced nociception can be reduced by TRPA1-deficient mice and antisense oligonucleotide for the TRPA1 receptor[3].
    Dacarbazine citrate-induced chronic nociception can be reduced by selective TRPA1 receptor antagonists and antioxidants[3].
    Dacarbazine citrate-induced nociception can be resisted by RPA1 antagonist or an antioxidant in a tumor-associated cancer pain model[3].

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
