m-Iodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) is an analogue of norepinephrine with anticancer activity.{42768} It inhibits cell growth in a panel of human and mouse leukemia, fibrosarcoma, melanoma, and neuroblastoma cell lines when used at a concentration of 20 µg/ml and reduces clonogenic survival of L1210 leukemia cells in a concentration-dependent manner. MIBG increases survival in N1E155 and L1210 mouse xenograft models when administered at doses of 40 and 20 mg/kg, respectively. It selectively accumulates in chromaffin tissues and tumors and formulations containing radiolabeled forms of MIBG have been used as imaging agents in the diagnosis and treatment of neuroendocrine tumors.{42769} MIBG also inhibits ADP-ribose linkage to membrane proteins in turkey erythrocyte membranes.
