Mertansine is a potent microtubule-targeted compound that inhibits tubulin assembly into microtubules, with the KD value of 0.86µM [1]. Mertansine binds to the vinblastine-binding site in the mitochondrial region, leading to mitotic arrest and apoptosis-mediated cell death [2]. Mertansine has been extensively conjugated to antibodies via linkers containing disulfide bonds for highly efficient killing of cancer cells[3].
In vitro, Mertansine treatment for 72 hours significantly inhibited the proliferation of MCF7 cells with an IC50 value of 0.71nM[4]. Treatment with 2.5µM Mertansine for 48h significantly reduced CYP1A2, CYP2B6, and CYP3A4 mRNA levels in human hepatocytes[5].

在体外,Mertansine处理72小时显著抑制了MCF7细胞的增殖,IC50值为0.71nM[4]。使用2.5µM的Mertansine处理人肝细胞48小时,显著降低了CYP1A2、CYP2B6和CYP3A4的mRNA水平[6]。

Cell lines | MCF7 cells |
Preparation Method | MCF7 cells were cultured as adherent cells in high glucose (4g/l) and 25mM HEPES-fortified DMEM supplemented with 1× nonessential amino acids and 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) at 37°C in 5.8% CO2. Cells were plated onto a 96-well plate at a density of 2.4×104 cells/ml for 24h, and were treated with different concentrations of Mertansine (0.01, 0.1, 1, 10, 100, and 1000nM). After 72 hours, cell viability was analyzed. |
Reaction Conditions | 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10, 100, and 1000nM; 72h |
Applications | Mertansine treatment significantly reduced the cell viability of MCF7 cells in a dose-dependent manner. |
