Background:
Beta-Lapachone is an inhibitor of DNA topoisomerase I [1].
Beta-Lapachone is found to inhibit the activity of topoisomerase I in a DNA unwinding assay. It inhibits the relaxation at 1μM. The potency of beta-Lapachone can be increased when pretreating topoisomerase I with beta-Lapachone for 5 min at 37°C. Beta-Lapachone is selective for topoisomerase I and shows no inhibition activity for topoisomerase II. Besides, beta-Lapachone is also proved to have no induction in topoisomerase I mediated DNA cleavage [1].
Beta-Lapachone has anti-tumor efficacy in a broad spectrum of human carcinoma cells. It induces cell death of AD2780s, HT-29, DLD, G480 and MCF-7 with IC50 values of 2μM, 5μM, 5μM, 4μM and 2μM, respectively. It is found that beta-Lapachone induces cell death of both apoptosis and necrosis through releasing cytochrome C. Beta-Lapachone is also reported to affect cell cycle. It induces primarily S-phase arrest in SW480 cells, late S- and G2/M-phase arrest in SW620 cells and early S-phase arrest in DLD1 cells [2, 3].
