Teniposide
Teniposide is a semisynthetic epipodophyllotoxin derived from podophyllotoxin that inhibits topoisomerase II, causing DNA double-strand breaks and cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase. It is used in the treatment of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia and is active against brain tumors, bladder cancer, and breast cancer. Its antitumor activity is related to stabilization of the cleavable complex between topoisomerase II and DNA, leading to irreversible DNA strand breaks.
