Dehydrotrametenonic acid
Dehydrotrametenonic acid is a DNA topoisomerase II inhibitor with an IC50 of 37.5 μM. Dehydrotrametenonic acid inhibits DNA polymerase α and β with IC50 values of 45.5 and 86.5 μM, respectively. Dehydrotrametenonic acid does not intercalate into DNA and exhibits an inhibitory factor-like Topo II inhibition mechanism. Dehydrotrametenonic acid can be used in DNA replication, cell cycle, and cancer-related research.

In Vitro
Dehydrotrametenonic acid (compound 1) inhibits the activity of purified calf thymus DNA polymerase α, with an IC50 value of 45.5 μM[2].
Dehydrotrametenonic acid inhibits the activity of recombinant rat DNA polymerase β with an IC50 of 86.5 μM[2].
Dehydrotrametenonic acid (compound 5) inhibits the activity of human DNA topoisomerase II with an IC50 value of 37.5 μM, and does not inhibit the activity of human DNA topoisomerase I[4].
Dehydrotrametenonic acid (45.5-86.5 μM; 60 min) weakly inhibits the activity of all tested mammalian DNA polymerases (IC50 values 45.5-86.5 μM), and does not inhibit non-mammalian DNA metabolic enzymes[4].
Dehydrotrametenonic acid acts as a non-competitive inhibitor of calf thymus DNA polymerase α, and exhibits competitive inhibitory activity against rat DNA polymerase β relative to template-primer and nucleotide substrates[4].
Dehydrotrametenonic acid (100 μM) does not bind to or intercalate into calf thymus double-stranded DNA at a concentration of 100 μM[4].
Dehydrotrametenonic acid (48 h) inhibits the growth of NUGC-3 human gastric cancer cells, with an LD50 of 63.6 μM after 48 h of incubation[4].
Dehydrotrametenonic acid induces cell cycle arrest in the human gastric cancer cell line NUGC-3[4].
Dehydrotrametenonic acid induces apoptotic DNA fragmentation in human gastric cancer cell line NUGC-3[4].
