Properties
Description
Idarubicin HCl, soluble in DMSO and warmed water and insoluble in ethanol, is an effective DNA damage inhibitor, that has the ability to prevent the pathway of DNA damage by inhibiting topoisomerase. It targets the multicellular spheroids (cell-free assay) and Topo II (MCF-7 cells) (cell-free assay).

Applications
Idarubicin HCl is a DNA damage inhibitor that plays a key role in inhibiting topoisomerase II and inducing oxidative stress, which leads to cell death.
Storage
Store at -20ºC, and keep desiccated.
