Camptothecin

Camptothecin is a cytotoxic quinoline plant alkaloid that inhibits DNA and RNA synthesis by specifically inhibiting the DNA topoisomerase I enzyme. Shows great anti-tumor potential in the clinic by inducing DNA breaks and apoptosis, but shows in-vivo cytotoxicity. Derivitives of camptothecin have been developed and are used in chemotherapy, such as toptecan and irinotecan.
