Summary

Mertansine (DM1) is a microtubulin inhibitor and is an antibody-conjugatable maytansinoid that is developed to overcome systemic toxicity associated with maytansine and to enhance tumor-specific delivery. Mertansine can be attached to a monoclonal antibody with a linker to create an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) [1] [2] .


IC50 & Target

Maytansinoids


In Vitro

Mertansine is a strong antiproliferative chemotherapeutics toward over 60 types of cancer cell lines [3] .
Mertansine (0-1 μg/mL) shows antitumor activity in malignant B16F10 melanoma cells, and inhibits tumor cell growth by inhibiting mitosis when combined with DTX [3] .

MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Cell Proliferation Assay

Cell Line: Malignant B16F10 melanoma cells [3]
Concentration: 0, 0.01, 0.1, and 1 μg/mL
Incubation Time: 4 h
Result: Showed antitumor activity in malignant B16F10 melanoma cells, with an IC 50 of 0.092 μg/mL. Co-delivery of DTX and DM1, both of which inhibit tumor cell growth by inhibiting mitosis, is an effective strategy to achieve a combinatorial anticancer effect.

In Vivo

Mertansine (DM1) has a low maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) of 1 mg/kg [3]
