Description

Methotrexate α-tert-butyl ester, capped by OtBu, significantly reduces tumor growth in HT1080 tumor bearing mice. Methotrexate is an antimetabolite and antifolate agent and is also an immunosuppressant and antineoplastic agent[1][2][3][4].

In Vitro

OtBu-MTX-PVG is less HT1080 than MTX-PVG against HT1080 cells. It shows that protection of the α-carboxyl group of MTX results in reduced in vitro activity[1].

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

In Vivo

Lys-MTXcleavable- (OtBu) significantly reduces tumor growth in HT1080 tumor bearing mice[1].
The protection of the α-carboxyl group of methotrexate may be used to improve the circulatory half-life and reduce the liver accumulation of similar MTX-conjugated dendrimers, while still retaining antitumor activity in vivo[1].

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.
