As a topoisomerase II inhibitor and intercalating agent, elliptinium stabilizes the cleavable complex of topoisomerase II and induces DNA breakages, thereby inhibiting DNA replication and RNA and protein synthesis.

Substances that inhibit or prevent the proliferation of NEOPLASMS.
Agents that are capable of inserting themselves between the successive bases in DNA, thus kinking, uncoiling or otherwise deforming it and therefore preventing its proper functioning. They are used in the study of DNA.
UsesElliptinium acetate (NSC 264137) is a DNA intercalating agent that is highly cytotoxic to L1 210 cells and covalently binds to nucleic acids from L1210 cells. Elliptinium acetate can be used in cancer research, particularly in metastatic breast cancer[1][2].
