A series of deoxycytidine kinase inhibitors was simultaneously optimized for potency and PK properties. A co-crystal structure then allowed merging this series with a high throughput screening hit to afford a highly potent, selective and orally bioavailable inhibitor, compound 10.

The plasma concentration of 5-fluorouracil (FUra) following the i.v. administration of FUra and guanosine 5'-monophosphate (GMP) or guanosine 5'-triphosphate (GTP) was markedly elevated. These values were more than 5-fold higher than those obtained with FUra alone over 60 min after
Cleavage by restriction endonucleases MvaI kappa EcoRII of DNA duplexes, in which the internal deoxycytidine in one of the strands of the recognition site is substituted for 5-fluorodeoxycytidine, has been studied. It has been found that the modified strands of
The metabolic products formed and incorporated into the nucleic acids (RNA and DNA) of mice bearing Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) following optimal doses of 5-fluorouracil (FUra), 5-fluoro-2'-deoxyuridine (FdUrd), and 5-fluoro-2'-deoxycytidine (FdCyd) coadministered with tetrahydrouridine (H4Urd), a potent inhibitor of cytidine
In vivo, the DNA methyltransferase inhibitor, 5-fluoro-2'-deoxycytidine (FdCyd, NSC-48006), is rapidly converted to its unwanted metabolites. Tetrahydrouridine (THU, NSC-112907), a cytidine deaminase inhibitor can block the first metabolic step in FdCyd catabolism. Clinical studies have shown that co-administration with THU
We offer a variety of small molecule research tools, such as transcription factor modulators, inhibitors of chromatin modifying enzymes, and agonists/antagonists for target identification and validation in gene regulation research; a selection of these research tools is shown below.
