In Vitro
EF-5 binding is a promising stratification biomarker for benzotriazine-N-oxide bioreductive prodrugs. Binding and detection using a monoclonal antibody in 9L gliomas are specific and oxygen-dependent, following intravenous injection of EF-5. Modification of tumor hypoxia causes similar changes to the bioreductive activation of both agents, resulting in a strong correlation between EF-5 binding and CEN209-induced DNA damage at the individual tumor level [1]. Detection of binding using fluorescence microscopy can be performed on frozen tissues; tissue sections can be counterstained with hematoxylin and eosin for light microscopic analysis. The distribution of hypoxia in a tumor can be inferred by examining individual tumor cells using flow cytometric techniques [2].

Product Notes

The EF-5 (Catalog #AAA5754819) is an Inhibitor and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "EF-5, Inhibitor" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
