Biological Activity

Docetaxel is a clinically well-established anti-mitotic chemotherapy medication. Docetaxel binds to microtubules reversibly with high affinity and has a maximum stoichiometry of 1 mole docetaxel per mole tubulin in microtubules. It has also been found to lead to the phosphorylation of oncoprotein bcl-2, which is apoptosis-blocking in its oncoprotein form. Docetaxel exhibits cytotoxic activity on breast, colorectal, lung, ovarian, gastric, renal and prostate cancer cells. Docetaxel does not block disassembly of interphase microtubules and so does not prevent entry into the mitotic cycle, but does block mitosis by inhibiting mitotic spindle assembly. Docetaxel activity is significantly greater in ovarian and breast tumours than for lung tumours. Docetaxel prevents microtubule depolymerization and disassembly in the absence of GTP.

Preparation method Cell Proliferation Assays
Cytotoxicity was assessed by growing cells in the presence of agents for 72 h. Cell survival was measured by the sulforhodamine B (SRB) protein stain method or the ATP-binding assay using the Cell-Titer Glo Luminescent Reporter (GLR) System (Promega, Inc., Madison, WI). The SRB assay was done as previously described (23). For the GLR system, cells were plated robotically at approximately 50% confluency in a 384-well plate and allowed to attach for 12 h at 37°C/5% CO2. After diluting test agents using BioMek 2000 robotic system (Beckman Instruments, Fullerton, CA), agents were added to each well and incubated for 72 h. ATP binding and stabilization of the luminescent signal were performed according to manufacturer's protocol (Promega) following tumor cell lysis. Absorbance was read on a Victor V multilabel plate reader (Perkin-Elmer, Gaithersburg, MD) at a wavelength of A595 and data collected using Wallac 1420 Workstation software.

Body Surface Area (m2) 0.007 0.025 0.15 0.05 0.02 0.5
Km factor 3 6 12 8 5 20
Animal A (mg/kg) = Animal B (mg/kg) multiplied by  Animal B Km
Animal A Km

For example, to modify the dose of Compound A used for a mouse (20 mg/kg) to a dose based on the BSA for a rat, multiply 20 mg/kg by the Km factor for a mouse and then divide by the Km factor for a rat. This calculation results in a rat equivalent dose for Compound A of 10 mg/kg.

Dolastatin 15

Dolastatin 15, a heptasubunit condensed peptide derived from Dolabella auricularia, is also a potent antimitotic agent and microtubule destabilizer that inhibits mitosis by blocking microtubule assembly. In addition, Dolastatin 15 induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in multiple myeloma cells. It can also be used as an ADC cytotoxin for ADC development studies.

Oryzalin

Oryzalin is a dinitroaniline herbicide, binding to plant tubulin and inhibits microtubule (MT) polymerization in vitro. Oryzalin depolymerizes MTs and prevented the polymerization of new MTs at all stages of the mitotic cycle.
