Active Ingredient Description
Mitomycin

Mitomycin is an antibiotic isolated from Streptomyces caespitosus with anti-neoplastic effect. The mechanism of action is based predominantly on the alkylation of DNA (RNA to a lesser extent) with the corresponding inhibition of DNA synthesis. The degree of DNA damage correlates with the clinical effect and is lower in resistant cells than in sensitive ones.
