Netropsin dihydrochloride
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Netropsin dihydrochloride is a small-molecule MGB (minor-groove binder) and antibiotic, inhibits the catalytic activity of isolated topoisomerase and interferes with the stabilization of the cleavable complexes of topoisomerase II and I in nuclei. Netropsin dihydrochloride has antibacterial and antiviral activity.

Biological Activity
Netropsin dihydrochloride has potential antibiotic and antiviral properties by binding to dsDNA in a non-intercalative manner, it improves survival from murine endotoxaemia by attenuating NOS2 induction through interference with HMGA1 DNA binding to the core NOS2 promoter[2].
Netropsin dihydrochloride in solutions of DNA has radioprotective ability against radiation-induced damage due to its high binding affinity and high structural stabilization, hydroxyl radical (OH*) generated by ionizing radiation cannot radiolyse the netropsin-DNA complex[3].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
