Safety Data Sheet (SDS):
Biological target: Gemifloxacin mesylate is an oral broad-spectrum quinolone antibacterial agent, used in the treatment of acute bacterial exacerbation of chronic bronchitis, and mild-to-moderate pneumonia.
In vitro activity: As shown in Figure 1(a), GMF (gemifloxacin) did not affect the viability of SW620 and LoVo cells at concentrations ranging from 1 to 20 μg/mL. However, GMF exhibited an inhibitory effect on the migration of SW620 and LoVo cells, as determined by wound-healing assay (Figure 1(b)). In addition, quantitative transwell analysis also revealed that GMF decreased the migration of SW620 and LoVo cells in a dose-dependent manner (Figure 1(c)). Next, this study assessed the effect of GMF on the invasive ability of colon cancer cells. Compared to vehicle-treated cells, GMF treatment attenuated SW620 and LoVo cell invasion in a dose-dependent manner after treatment for 48 hours (Figure 1(d)).

In vivo activity: Negative control group is represented by 1, gemifloxacin treatment 25 mg/kg is represented by 2, gemifloxacin treatment 50 mg/kg is represented by 3 while gemifloxacin treatment 75 mg/kg is represented by 4. Significant (***P<0.001) decrease in leukocyte count is found in group 2 and group 3 while significant (**P<0.01) decrease is observed in gemifloxacin treatment 75 mg/kg. Significant (P<0.05) decrease in leukocyte mean value is observed in mouse treatment group 3 and 4 before cyclophosphamide administration.
