Naturally fluorescent anthracycline antibiotic, anticancer drug. Doxorubicin is a substrate of MRP1 which was first cloned from a DOX-resistant lung cancer cell line. Fluorescent property has been exploited for the measurement of drug efflux pump activities as well as resolving the important question of intracellular localization of various multidrug resistance proteins and the role of subcellular organelles (Golgi and lysosome) in the sequestration of drugs and its implication in drug resistant phenotypes.

Local:
Anthracycline: a class of chemotherapy drugs that are also antibiotics having a four-ring nucleus (tetrahydrotetrahydrotetracenedione.) to which is attached by aminoglycoside linkage including daunosamine (CAS 26548-47-0), isolated from the fungus Streptomyces peucetius or S. coeruleorubidus. The molecule is amphoteric. The ring-system nucleus is lipophilic, but abundant hydroxyl groups at the saturated end of the ring system is hydrophilic. The molecule contains acidic function in the ring phenolic groups as well as a basic function in the amino group in glycoside. Anthracyclines act to terminate cancer cells function by DNA intercalation, metal ion chelation, and the generation of free radicals. They are used to treat a wide range of cancers including leukemia and other neoplasms. Doxorubicin is a hydroxyl form of daunomycin in structure for the reduction in cardiotoxicity. Doxorubicin hydrochloride form of red-orange powder. It is an inhibitor of reverse transcriptase and RNA polymerase. The fluorescent property has been exploited for the measurement of drug efflux pump activities as well as resolving the important question of intracellular localization of various multidrug resistance proteins and the role of subcellular organelles in the sequestration of drugs and its implication in drug resistant phenotypes The IUPAC name is (7S,9S)-7-[(2R,4S,5S,6S)-4-amino-5-hydroxy-6-methyloxan-2-yl]oxy-6,9,11 -trihydroxy-9-(2- hydroxyacetyl)-4-methoxy-8,10-dihydro-7H-tetracene-5,12-dione.
