Application

Chlorambucil has been used:
  • as an alkylating/chemotherapeutic agent to study its anti-inflammatory effects on amyloidogenesis in mice
  • as a positive control to determine the cytotoxicity in murine leukemic monocyte macrophages
  • as an adenine-specific DNA-alkylating reagent in the construction of multifunctional conjugate (8950A-Chb(Cl/OH) for mutation-specific DNA alkylation in HeLa S3 cells

Biochem/physiol Actions

Chlorambucil is a nitrogen mustard alkylating agent that acts as an anti-cancer drug. Chlorambucil binds to membranes, RNA, DNA, and proteins. It exhibits anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor activity by DNA cross-linking. Chlorambucil shows therapeutic effects against chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) via a p53-dependent mechanism.
