3-Deazauridine

SKU: orb1303896

Description

3-Deazauridine (NSC-126849) is a uridine analog functioning as a competitive inhibitor of cytidine triphosphate synthetase (CTPS), thereby blocking CTP biosynthesis. This mechanism supports its research use in studying nucleotide metabolism, with applications in antiviral and anticancer investigations across in vitro and in vivo models.

Bioactivity

• In Vitro:
  3-Deazauridine enhanced the in vitro antineoplastic action of 5-AZA-CdR on human leukemic cells by increasing its incorporation into DNA. Using an optimized dose-schedule we showed that this combination could cure some mice bearing L1210 leukemia, even in the presence of a subpopulation of drug-resistant (L1210/ARA-C) leukemic cells lacking DCK. 3-Deazauridine alone also cured some mice with L1210/ARA-C leukemia.
