Overview

Information

Actinomycin D (Dactinomycin) Actinomycin D (Dactinomycin, Act D, RASP-101) is a significant polypeptide antibiotic isolated from soil bacteria of the genus Streptomyces. Actinomycin D (Dactinomycin) inhibits DNA repair and rests the cell cycle at G1 pha
In vitro

Actinomycin D markedly reduces the SMC proliferation via the inhibition of BrdU incorporation at 80 nM. This is further supported by the G1-phase arrest using a flowcytometric analysis. The protein expression levels of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), focal adhesion kinase (FAK), and Raf are all suppressed by actinomycin D. Extracellular signalregulated kinases (Erk) involved in cell-cycle arrest are found to be increased by actinomycin D.

In vivo

Actinomycin D targets survival proteins TOSO, BCL2 and MCL1 and is active in two different mouse models that are characterized by either unmutated B-cell receptor or inactive p53 function, both of which are known negative prognostic factors in CLL.
