Description: | Tirapazamine (TPZ,SR-4233, WIN 59075) is the first hypoxia-activated prodrug. Tirapazamine kills hypoxic cells by inducing chromosome aberrations and DNA double-strand breaks. Tirapazamine induced cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, and down-regulated HIF-1α, CA-IX and VEGF expression. |
Stability and Solubility Advice: | Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide. We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details. |
