Description

N-Methyl mitomycin A is an aziridine compound that is used as a cytotoxic agent to treat inflammatory diseases, such as cavity. It is also used to treat cancer and autoimmune diseases. N-Methyl mitomycin A inhibits the growth of tumor cells by cross-linking DNA in the target tissue, which prevents replication of the cell. This drug has been shown to induce lymphocytic leukemia in some animals by binding with DNA sequences and preventing RNA synthesis. N-Methyl mitomycin A also inhibits protein synthesis, leading to the death of the cell.
