Combretastatin A4 (CA4) is a potent inhibitor of tubulin polymerization that displays strong inhibitory activity on tumor cell growth. Combretastatin-A-4-3’-O-Phosphate (CA4P) is a CA4 prodrug that inhibits tumor growth in several cell lines including P-388 (leukemia), SK-N-SH (neuroblast), BXPC-3 (pancreas), NCI-H460 (lung), and DU-145 (prostate) with ED50 values of 0.0029, 0.00025, 0.23, 0.00035, and 0.00072 µg/ml, respectively.{13212} CA4P specifically targets the tumor vasculature. In a rat model of carcinosarcoma, CA4P delivered intraperitoneally at a dose of 100 mg/kg effectively disrupts tumor blood flow within six hours after administration without significantly affecting normal tissues.{15817}

    Anhydrotetracycline (hydrochloride) – 50 mg

    The tetracycline repressor (TetR) is a transcriptional regulator which normally binds tightly to its palindromic tetO operator DNA, blocking gene expression.{17508} Tet causes the repressor to dissociate from the DNA, allowing transcription to occur. A novel reverse TetR (revTetR) requires tetracycline as a co-repressor to bind tetO and block transcription.{17509,17510} Anhydrotetracycline (hydrochloride) is a powerful effector in both the tetracycline repressor (TetR) and reverse TetR (revTetR) systems, binding the Tet repressor 35-fold more strongly than Tet.{17508,17511} Moreover, anhydrotetracycline poorly binds the 30S ribosomal subunit, compared to Tet,{17512} so it does not act as a general inhibitor of translation and is a poor antibiotic. Perhaps related to this, the concentration of anhydrotetracycline that inhibits eukaryotic cell growth is more than a 1,000-fold above the dose that alters transcription through TetR.{17508}
