Hycanthone (ethansulfonate)
Based on 2 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Hycanthone ethansulfonate is an apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) inhibitor, DNA intercalator and Antischistosomal agent, with an IC50 of 80 nM against APE1. Hycanthone ethansulfonate irreversibly inhibits thymidine incorporation into DNA in adult sensitive *Schistosoma mansoni*, while exerts weak inhibitory effects on uridine and leucine incorporation. Hycanthone ethansulfonate reduces influenza virus-induced interferon production. Hycanthone ethansulfonate exhibits mutagenic effects in various organisms, shows teratogenicity in mice and rabbits, and induces neoplastic liver lesions in partially hepatectomized mice. Hycanthone ethansulfonate can be used in research related to schistosomiasis and cancer.

Biological Activity
Description
In Vitro
Hycanthone ethansulfonate potently inhibits the endonuclease activity of APE1, with an IC50 of 80 nM[1].
Hycanthone (1.0-50.0 μg/mL; 24 h) ethansulfonate reduces the viability of LLC-MK2 cells in a concentration-dependent manner, with a cell survival rate of 43.1% at 50.0 μg/mL, 78.8% at 20.0 μg/mL, and only extremely weak effects at concentrations ≤10.0 μg/mL[3].
Hycanthone (0.1-10.0 μg/mL; 24 h) ethansulfonate potently inhibits influenza virus-induced interferon production in LLC-MK2 cells in vitro in a concentration-dependent manner, reducing interferon yield by 73.5% at a concentration of 10.0 μg/mL[3].
Hycanthone (24 h) ethansulfonate does not alter interferon-mediated antiviral cellular resistance in clone 1-5c-4 cells[3].
Hycanthone (10.0 μg/mL) ethanesulfonate prevents IA-4 N-oxide from blocking its inhibitory effect on influenza virus-induced interferon production, reducing interferon yield by 78.0%[3].
