EPI, epirubicin: Click to Expand ⟱
| Features: |
Epirubicin, an anthracycline chemotherapeutic agent, has several mechanisms of action, one of which is the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Here are some key points regarding epirubicin and its relationship with ROS:
Mechanism of Action and ROS Generation
-Epirubicin exerts its anticancer effects primarily by intercalating into DNA and inhibiting topoisomerase II, leading to DNA strand breaks.

| Source: |
| Type: Proapototic protein |
BAX is a member of the Bcl-2 gene family.
Pro-apoptotic protein that forms heterodimers with anti-apoptotic BCL2 proteins; involved in various cellular activities and regulated by p53; mediates the release of cytochrome c from mitochondria.
