描述信息
Drug Groups
experimental
Description
An alkaloid isolated from the stem wood of the Chinese tree, Camptotheca acuminata. This compound selectively inhibits the nuclear enzyme DNA topoisomerase, type I. Several semisynthetic analogs of camptothecin have demonstrated antitumor activity. [PubChem]
Indication
Investigated for the treatment of cancer.
Pharmacology
Camptothecin demonstrated strong anticancer activity in preliminary clinical trials but also low solubility and adverse drug reaction. Camptothecin is believed to be a potent topoisomerase inhibitor that interferes with the essential function of topoisomerase in DNA replication.
Toxicity
Acute oral toxicity (LD50) in mouse: 50.1 mg/kg
Affected Organisms
Humans and other mammals
