Popis: | Summary Adriamycin, carminomycin, and daunorubicin inhibit the coenzyme Q 10 -enzymes, succinoxidase and NADH-oxidase. Adriamycin 14-octanoate, which is more lipoidal than adriamycin, was the most effective inhibitor of the anthracyclines for both enzymes, and was 1/12 as effective as the standard inhibitor, 6-ω-cyclohexylpentyl-5-hydroxy-2,3-dimethoxy-1,4-benzoquinone, of coenzyme Q 10 for NADH-oxidase. Lapachol and dichloroallyl lawsone inhibited succinoxidase, and the latter of all quinones was second only to the standard for inhibition. These data indicate that the antitumor activities of adriamycin could possibly be partly due to inhibition of CoQ 10 -enzymes in electron transfer processes of cell respiration in addition to intercalation within DNA helices. |
