Isoform Comparison

Biological Activity

Description
5,6-Dichlorobenzimidazole riboside (DRB) is a nucleoside analog that inhibits various carboxyl-terminal domain kinases, including casein kinase II and cell cycle-dependent kinases (CDK), and exhibits antitumor activity. It can also trigger apoptosis[1][2][3][4][5][6][7].

HeLa cells 5-60 μM 15 min DRB significantly inhibits RNA synthesis and has a stronger inhibitory effect on uridine uptake in HeLa cells compared to L cells. J Cell Biol. 1976 May;69(2):229-40
HeLa cell extract 2-6 μM 60 minutes To determine the inhibitory effect of DRB on RNA polymerase II-mediated transcription in vitro, results showed that DRB significantly inhibited transcription at 2-6 μM concentration. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 1982 May;79(10):3167-70
HeLa cells 4-6 μM 15-60 minutes To determine the inhibitory effect of DRB on RNA transcription, results showed that DRB significantly inhibited RNA synthesis at 4-6 μM concentration. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 1982 May;79(10):3167-70
mouse embryos 80 μM 4 to 20 hours To study the effect of DRB on early mouse embryo development, found that inhibition of minor ZGA resulted in embryo arrest at the two-cell stage Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 2018 Jul 17;115(29):E6780-E6788
T-47D cells 75 μM 72 hours DRB inhibited T-47D cell proliferation, but no cleavage of PARP was observed. Sci Rep. 2023 Aug 3;13(1):12621
MCF-7 cells 75 μM 72 hours DRB inhibited MCF-7 cell proliferation and induced apoptosis, as evidenced by increased Annexin V-positive cells, DNA fragmentation, and activation of caspase-7, caspase-9, and PARP. Sci Rep. 2023 Aug 3;13(1):12621
HeLa cells 70 μM 1 hour To study the effect of DRB on adenovirus transcription, it was found that DRB inhibits transcription from the major late promoter, but the synthesis of polypeptide IX mRNA is resistant to DRB. Nucleic Acids Res. 1979 Nov 24;7(6):1405-18
Friend cells 125 μM 30 minutes To investigate the effect of DRB on β-globin mRNA, results showed that DRB inhibited the appearance of β-globin mRNA in the cytoplasm by greater than 87%. Nucleic Acids Res. 1981 Jul 24;9(14):3307-19
Chorioallantoic membrane cells 0.38 × 10⁻⁴ M 36 hours To study the inhibitory effect of DRB on Lee virus replication, results showed that DRB at 0.38 × 10⁻⁴ M concentration could inhibit 75% of virus replication. J Exp Med. 1954 Mar;99(3):227-50

Dissolving Methods
Please choose the appropriate dissolution scheme according to your animal administration guide.For the following dissolution schemes, clear stock solution should be prepared according to in vitro experiments, and then cosolvent should be added in turn:

in order to ensure the reliability of the experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be properly preserved according to the storage conditions; The working fluid for in vivo experiment is recommended to be prepared now and used on the same day;

The percentage shown in front of the following solvent refers to the volume ratio of the solvent in the final solution; If precipitation or precipitation occurs in the preparation process, it can be assisted by heating and/or ultrasound.
