Forodesine (BCX-1777) is a highly potent and orally active purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) inhibitor with IC 50 values ranging from 0.48 to 1.57 nM for human, mouse, rat, monkey and dog PNP. Forodesine is a potent human lymphocyte proliferation inhibitor. Forodesine could induce apoptosis in leukemic cells by increasing the dGTP levels.
Forodesine (10-30?μM; 24 and 48 hours; RPMI-8226, MOLT-4 and 5T33MM cells) treatment is partially inhibition of proliferation.Forodesine (10-30?μM; 24 and 48 hours; RPMI-8226, MOLT-4 and 5T33MM cells) has no effect on the MM cells at 24 hours, while it could reduce the percentage of living cells in the MOLT-4 cells with 40%. Forodesine (BCX-1777), in the presence of 2-deoxyguanosine (dGuo, 3-10 μM), inhibits human lymphocyte proliferation activated by various agents such as interleukin-2 (IL-2), mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) and phytohemagglutinin (PHA) (IC50 values < 0.1-0.38 μM). has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
体内研究(In Vivo)
Forodesine (BCX-1777) has excellent oral bioavailability (63%) in mice.
At a single dose of 10 mg/kg in mice, Forodesine elevates dGuo to approximately 5 μM.
n the human peripheral blood lymphocyte severe combined immunodeficiency (hu-PBL-SCID) mouse model, Forodesine is effective in prolonging the life span 2-fold or more. has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
