Project at a Glance

Contents on the CD Rom

  • Teniposide is a cancer (antineoplastic) medication. Teniposide interferes with the growth of cancer cells and slows their growth and spread in the body.
  • Teniposide is a white to off-white crystalline powder with the empirical formula C 32 H 32 O 13 S and a molecular weight of 656.66.
  • Teniposide is insoluble in water and ether. It is slightly soluble in methanol and very soluble in acetone and dimethylformamide.
  • Teniposide is FDA approved in combination with other anticancer agents for the treatment of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia that has stopped responding to standard therapies.
  • Teniposide produces its anti-cancer effects by inhibiting an enzyme, topoisomerase, which is responsible for maintaining structural function and integrity of DNA. By inhibiting the normal activity of topoisomerase, teniposide inhibits proper DNA synthesis, ultimately causing cellular death.
  • VUMON® (teniposide injection) (also commonly known as VM-26), is supplied as a sterile nonpyrogenic solution in a nonaqueous medium intended for dilution with a suitable parenteral vehicle prior to intravenous infusion.
  • Teniposide is a semisynthetic podophyllotoxin derived from the root of Podophyllum peltatum.
  • The American mayapple (Podophyllum peltatum L.; Berberidaceae) is a rhizomatous perennial species found throughout eastern North America.
  • Podophyllotoxin is an important plant compound that has found its way into different therapies. Up to the present the only source for podophyllotoxin is the Podophyllum plant, which is mainly collected from the wild.
  • Podophyllotoxin inhibits the formation of the microtubules. In vitro it binds to tubulin dimers giving podophyllotoxin-tubulin complexes.
  • Mandrake has a large brown root (like a parsnip), running 3 to 4 feet into the ground. The root is thick and is frequently forked like two legs.
  • Teniposide can reduce the production of white blood cells by the bone marrow, making you more prone to infection. Teniposide can reduce the production of platelets, which help the blood to clot.
  • Signs of an allergic reaction include skin rashes and itching, a high temperature, shivering, redness of the face, dizziness, headache, breathlessness and anxiety.
  • Teniposide is carcinogenic, fetotoxic, embryotoxic, and teratogenic and should not be used in pregnancy. It causes infertility.
