Description

Maytansine, a natural alkaloid, was first isolated from Maydens ovale in 1972 and exists in the genus Maydens of the family Weedaceae and its relatives. The mechanism of action of maytansine, acting on microtubules and tubulin, blocks the formation of spindles in the process of cell mitosis by inhibiting the depolymerization of cell microtubules, and has a strong ability to inhibit tumor cell proliferation.

Chemical Properties

Mertansine is a white powder. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, DMSO, and dimethyl formamide (DMF), which should be purged with an inert gas. The solubility of mertansine in these solvents is approximately 0.25, 20, and 33 mg/ml, respectively.

Uses

Mertansine (DM1) is a microtubulin inhibitor which binds at the tips of microtubules and suppresses the dynamicity of microtubules.. Mertansine is an antibody-conjugatable maytansinoid that was developed to overcome systemic toxicity associated with maytansine and to enhance tumor-specific delivery. It can be attached to a monoclonal antibody with a linker to create an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC).

Definition

ChEBI: Mertansine is an organic heterotetracyclic compound and 19-membered macrocyclic lactam that is maytansine in which one of the hydrogens of the terminal N-acetyl group is replaced by a sulfanylmethyl group. It has a role as an antineoplastic agent and a tubulin modulator. It is an alpha-amino acid ester, a carbamate ester, an epoxide, an organic heterotetracyclic compound, an organochlorine compound, a thiol and a maytansinoid. It derives from a maytansine.

Biological Activity

Mertansine is a thiol-containing derivative of maytansine that is cytotoxic to human epidermoid carcinoma KB and human breast cancer SK-BR-3 cells (IC50 = 1.10 nM for both). Formulations containing mertansine have been studied for the treatment of multiple myeloma and squamous cell carcinoma.

Synthesis

Mertansine synthesis steps: A solution of N 2'-deacetyl-N 2'- (3-methyldithio-1-oxopropyl)- maytansine (2b) (1.95 g, 2.5 mmol) in a mixture of ethyl acetate (140 mL) and methanol (210 mL) was stirred at room temperature under an argon atmosphere and treated with a solution of dithiothreitol (0.95 g, 6.2 mmol) in 0.05 M potassium phosphate buffer (140 mL) at pH 7.5 containing 2 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA). The progress of the reaction was monitored by HPLC and was complete in three hours. The reaction mixture was treated with a solution of 0.2 M potassium phosphate buffer (250 mL) at pH 6.0 containing 2 mM EDTA and then extracted with ethyl acetate (3 x 600 mL). The organic layers were combined, washed with brine (100 mL), and then dried over sodium sulfate. Evaporation of the solvent gave a residue of crude thiol-containing maytansinoid 25a. The crude residue was purified by HPLC using a preparative Diazem cyano HPLC column (250 mm x 50 mm, 10 micron particle size) that was equilibrated in a mixture of hexanes/2-propanol/ethyl acetate (78.0:5.5:16.5, v/v/v) and run at a flow rate of 150 mL/min. The desired product 25a eluted as a peak centered at 16 min. The fractions containing the product were evaporated to give mertansine as a white solid (76% yield).Fig The synthetic method 1 of Mertansine.

Mode of action

Mertansine is a 19-member ansa macrolide structure attached to a chlorinated benzene ring. It was originally isolated from the shrub Maytenus ovatus. The antimitotic effect of maytansine has been attributed to its ability to inhibit microtubule assembly by binding to tubulin with a KD of ~1 μmol/L, at or near the vinblastine-binding site. Mertansine is effective in vivo against Lewis lung carcinoma and B16 murine melanocarcinoma solid tumors and has antileukemic activity against P388 murine lymphocytic leukemia.

Check Digit Verification of cas no

The CAS Registry Mumber 139504-50-0 includes 9 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 6 digits, 1,3,9,5,0 and 4 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 5 and 0 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 139504-50:
(8*1)+(7*3)+(6*9)+(5*5)+(4*0)+(3*4)+(2*5)+(1*0)=130
130 % 10 = 0
So 139504-50-0 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

Photoactivatable prodrug for simultaneous release of mertansine and CO along with a BODIPY derivative as a luminescent marker in mitochondria: a proof of concept for NIR image-guided cancer therapy

Tiwari, Rajeshwari,Shinde, Prashant S.,Sreedharan, Sreejesh,Dey, Anik Kumar,Vallis, Katherine A.,Mhaske, Santosh B.,Pramanik, Sumit Kumar,Das, Amitava

Controlled and efficient activation is the crucial aspect of designing an effective prodrug. Herein we demonstrate a proof of concept for a light activatable prodrug with desired organelle specificity. Mertansine, a benzoansamacrolide, is an efficient microtubule-targeting compound that binds at or near the vinblastine-binding site in the mitochondrial region to induce mitotic arrest and cell death through apoptosis. Despite its efficacy even in the nanomolar level, this has failed in stage 2 of human clinical trials owing to the lack of drug specificity and the deleterious systemic toxicity. To get around this problem, a recent trend is to develop an antibody-conjugatable maytansinoid with improved tumor/organelle-specificity and lesser systematic toxicity. Endogenous CO is recognized as a regulator of cellular function and for its obligatory role in cell apoptosis. CO blocks the proliferation of cancer cells and effector T cells, and the primary target is reported to be the mitochondria. We report herein a new mitochondria-specific prodrug conjugate (Pro-DC) that undergoes a photocleavage reaction on irradiation with a 400 nm source (1.0 mW cm?2) to induce a simultaneous release of the therapeutic components mertansine and CO along with a BODIPY derivative (BODIPY(PPH3)2) as a luminescent marker in the mitochondrial matrix. The efficacy of the process is demonstrated using MCF-7 cells and could effectively be visualized by probing the intracellular luminescence ofBODIPY(PPH3)2. This provides a proof-of-concept for designing a prodrug for image-guided combination therapy for mainstream treatment of cancer.
