Description
Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22260166 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7932544 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/13146115 | https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/drugsatfda_docs/label/2010/050467s070lbl.pdf

Daunorubicin, also known as daunomycin, is a chemotherapy medication used to treat cancer. Specifically, it is used for acute myeloid leukemia (AML), acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL), chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), and Kaposi's sarcoma. Similar to doxorubicin, daunorubicin interacts with DNA by intercalation and inhibition of macromolecular biosynthesis. This inhibits the progression of the enzyme topoisomerase II, which relaxes supercoils in DNA for transcription. Daunorubicin stabilizes the topoisomerase II complex after it has broken the DNA chain for replication, preventing the DNA double helix from being resealed and thereby stopping the process of replication. On binding to DNA, daunomycin intercalates, with its daunosamine residue directed toward the minor groove. It has the highest preference for two adjacent G/C base pairs flanked on the 5' side by an A/T base pair. Daunorubicin should only be administered in a rapid intravenous infusion. It should not be administered intramuscularly or subcutaneously, since it may cause extensive tissue necrosis. It should also never be administered intrathecally (into the spinal canal), as this will cause extensive damage to the nervous system and may lead to death.

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide
Usual Adult Dose for Acute Nonlymphocytic Leukemia: Under 60 years of age: 45 mg/m2 IV over 2 to 5 minutes once a day on days 1, 2, and 3 for the first course and on days 1 and 2 for subsequent courses) with cytosine arabinoside (ara-C) intravenously once a day (usually for 7 days for the first course and 5 days for subsequent courses) as remission induction therapy.
Route of Administration: Intravenous
In Vitro Use Guide
In order to determine the viability of HL-60, K562, THP-1, and HEK293T cells, they were trypsinized, counted, and seeded into 96-well plates and were treated with serial dilutions (0.0001, 0.001, 0.01, 0.1, 1 mkM) of DNR (Daunorubicin). Cell viability was determined 48 h after DNR treatment using the luminescent cell viability assay (Promega) through luminescence testing by BMG NOVOstar machine.
