Streptozotocin (also known as NSC-85998, STZ, Streptozotocin; U 9889) is a glucosamine-nitrosourea derivative and a potent DNA-methylating agent with IC50s of 11.7, 904 and 1024 μg/mL in HL60, K562 and C1498 cells respectively. Streptozotocin is an antibiotic, methylating, carcinogen, and inducer of diabetes. Antineoplastic antibiotic streptozocin is methylnitrosourea that was extracted from the Streptomyces achromogenes bacteria. DNA is alkylated by streptozocin, which also prevents DNA synthesis and creates interstrand cross-links. This agent is easily absorbed by pancreatic beta cells because of its glucose moiety, which causes diabetes mellitus at high concentrations.

Enzyme Assay |
Streptozocin is an effective agent that methylates DNA; in HL60, K562, and C1498 cells, it has IC50 values of 11.7, 904, and 1024 μg/mL, respectively.

|
Cell Assay |
In 96-well plates, human and murine cell lines are cultivated in triplicate at a density of 2×104 cells/well, either in the absence (untreated control) or in the presence of different concentrations of ALX (20-3000 μg/mL) or STZ (1-3000 μg/mL) for 48 hours at 37°C in a humidified atmosphere with 5% CO2. The experiments used cells cultured in complete medium as a control, and cells cultured in dH2O at a final concentration of 0.1% as a control for solvent toxicity. The MTT assay is used in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions to determine the effects of the tested drugs on the growth or viability of tumor cells. GraphPad Prism 4 is used to calculate the IC50 values, or drug concentrations that cause a 50% inhibition of cell growth.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
Calculation results
Working concentration: mg/mL;
Method for preparing DMSO stock solution: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO (stock solution concentration mg/mL). Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug.
Method for preparing in vivo formulation::Take μL DMSO stock solution, next add μL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O,mix and clarify.
(1) Please be sure that the solution is clear before the addition of next solvent. Dissolution methods like vortex, ultrasound or warming and heat may be used to aid dissolving.
(2) Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order.
