Vincristine-d3 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of vincristine (Item No. 11764) by GC- or LC-MS. Vincristine is a vinca alkaloid that has been found in C. rosea and has anticancer activities.1,2 It inhibits tubulin polymerization in a cell-free assay (Ki = 0.085 µM) and induces mitotic arrest in U937 cells when used at a concentration of 10 nM. In vivo, vincristine (3 mg/kg) reduces tumor growth in rhabdomyosarcoma patient-derived xenograft (PDX) mouse models.3 Formulations containing vincristine have been used in the treatment of various cancers.
