Description générale

5-Azacytidine is a chemical analog of cytidine. It functions as a hypomethylating agent. 5-Azacytidine is used to treat myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS).
Chemical structure: nucleoside

Application

5-Azacytidine has been used:
  • for cell induction
  • to study its effects on bovine fetal mesenchymal stem cells (bfMSC)
  • to study its effects on human bone marrow stromal cells (hBMSCs)
  • to study its effects on and DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) and Ras protein activator like 1 (RASAL1) expression
  • to interfere with DNA methylation and histone acetylation
  • to determine its effects on the conversion of control fibroblasts
  • for optical coherence tomography (OCT) and fluorescein angiography (FA)
  • for the reactivation of Sal-like protein (SALL)3 expression

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

5-Azacytidine (Aza-CR) acts as a potential chemotherapeutic regimen for acute myelogenous leukemia. This drug has an ability to selectively increase γ-globin synthesis. Therefore, 5-azacytidine is used in treating severe β-thalassemia. Aza-CR acts as a potential bacteriostatic, antitumor and mutagenic agent. In addition, it also exhibits various biological activity such as, immunosuppressive, antimitotic, radioprotective and virostatic effects.
A potent growth inhibitor and cytotoxic agent; inhibits DNA methyltransferase, an important regulatory mechanism of gene expression, gene activation and silencing.
Causes DNA demethylation or hemi-demethylation, creating openings that allow transcription factors to bind to DNA and reactivate tumor suppressor genes.
