Description: Potent pro-apoptotic anticancer agent; activates caspase-3
Alternative Names: CDDP
Chemical Name: cis-Diaminodichloroplatinum
Biological Activity for Cisplatin
Cisplatin is a potent anticancer agent that blocks DNA synthesis. Induces apoptosis via p53-dependent and -independent mechanisms. Inhibits X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP) expression and activates caspase-3. In certain glioma cell lines, sensitizes cells to TNF-α-induced apoptosis.

Worked well.
By
Kishor Pant on 03/24/2023
Assay Type: In Vitro
Species: Human
Cell Line/Tissue: HepG2 and Huh
We used this in a cell proliferation assay in HepG2 and other liver cancer cell lines for 24-48 hours and always worked well. The graph shows % proliferation (x) vs increasing concentration of cisplatin (0 - 20 uM) (y).
Please always try to use the fresh sample

Cell Cycle and DNA Damage Research Product Guide
This product guide provides a review of the cell cycle and DNA damage research area and lists over 150 products, including research tools for:
- Cell Cycle and Mitosis
- DNA Damage Repair
- Targeted Protein Degradation
- Ubiquitin Proteasome Pathway
- Chemotherapy Targets
Cell Cycle & DNA Damage Repair Poster
In normal cells, each stage of the cell cycle is tightly regulated, however in cancer cells many genes and proteins that are involved in the regulation of the cell cycle are mutated or over expressed. This poster summarizes the stages of the cell cycle and DNA repair. It also highlights strategies for enhancing replicative stress in cancer cells to force mitotic catastrophe and cell death.
Huntington's Disease Poster
Huntington's disease (HD) is a severe monogenic neurodegenerative disorder, which is characterized by the prevalent loss of GABAergic medium spiny neurons (MSN) in the striatum. This poster summarizes the effects of mutant huntingtin aggregation implicated in the pathology of HD, as well as highlighting the use of iPSCs for HD modeling.
Parkinson's Disease Poster
Parkinson's disease (PD) causes chronic disability and is the second most common neurodegenerative condition. This poster outlines the neurobiology of the disease, as well as highlighting current therapeutic treatments for symptomatic PD, and emerging therapeutic strategies to delay PD onset and progression.
Programmed Cell Death Poster
There are two currently recognized forms of programmed cell death: apoptosis and necroptosis. This poster summarizes the signaling pathways involved in apoptosis, necroptosis and cell survival following death receptor activation, and highlights the influence of the molecular switch, cFLIP, on cell fate.
