| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
β-Lapachone (4707-32-8) is a naturally occurring quinone found in the bark of the Lapacho tree (Tabebuia avellanedae). A novel DNA topoisomerase I inhibitor which unlike camptothecin does not stabilize the cleavable complex indicating a novel mode of action.1?Induces apoptosis in a number of cancer cell lines.2?In cancer cells over-expressing NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase, reduction of β-lapachone leads to futile cycling between quinone and hydroquinone forms3?resulting in the production of reactive oxygen species4. Suppresses radiation-induced activation of NFκB.5 | [Chemical Properties]
Orange Solid | [Uses]
β-Lapachone is a naturally occurring quinone obtained from the bark of the lapacho tree (Tabebuia avellanedae) with cancer chemopreventive properties. Induces apoptosis in HL-60 and human prostate cancer cells.
| [Definition]
ChEBI: A benzochromenone that is 3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo[h]chromene-5,6-dione substituted by geminal methyl groups at position 2. Isolated from Tabebuia avellanedae, it exhibits antineoplastic and anti-inflammatory activi
ies. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
β-Lapachone acts as a DNA topoisomerase type I inhibitor. It exhibits anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, trypanocidal, and antiviral properties. β-Lapachone also inhibits nitric oxide?(NO) and inducible NO synthase (iNOS) in alveolar macrophages. | [storage]
