Application

Bendamustine hydrochloride hydrate has been used as: a chemotherapy agent for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) samples to monitor spliced and unspliced gene expression an inhibitor to E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase RNF3 (HOIP) inmatrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry(MALDI-TOF) assaya cytotoxic chemotherapeutic drug in high-throughput screening to test interaction with BAY87-2243

Biochem/physiol Actions

Bendamustine hydrochloride is a DNA-alkylator with a distinct pattern of activity. Bendamustine activates DNA-damage stress response and apoptosis; inhibits mitotic checkpoints; and induces mitotic catastrophe.
