guanine analogue

GS-9191 is a potent inhibitor of DNA polymerase alpha and ß , a prodrug of the novel nucleoside analogue 9-(2-phosphonomethoxyethyl)guanine (PMEG) , which penetrates the skin and is metabolized in the epithelium to an active nucleoside triphosphate analogue.GS-9191 has antiproliferative activity and reduces the size of papillomas in a dose-related manner.GS-9191 may be useful in the treatment of HPV-induced lesions.

Tivicilovir (AM188) is a hepatitis B virus inhibitor. tiviclovir is a guanine-related acyclic 2'-deoxyguanine analogue with anti-herpesvirus activity.

Famciclovir (BRL 42810) is a Herpes Simplex Virus Nucleoside Analog DNA Polymerase Inhibitor. The mechanism of action of famciclovir is as a DNA Polymerase Inhibitor, and DNA Polymerase Inhibitor.

Ara-G is an analog of the nucleoside guanosine and an active metabolite of nelarabine .1,2 Ara-G accumulates in T lymphoblasts and malignant T-lymphoid cells, where it is phosphorylated to produce ara-GTP and incorporated into the DNA.3,1 Ara-G inhibits DNA replication by 92% after 30 minutes when used at a concentration of 50 μM in CEM cells, which are used as a model for human T lymphoblasts.1 It also halts the cell cycle at the sub-G1 phase and induces apoptosis in CEM cells.3 Syngeneic bone marrow containing 6C3HED tumor cells treated with ara-G (100 mM) ex vivo prior to transplantation increases survival of lethally irradiated mice and induces reconstitution of lymphoid, myeloid, and erythroid cell linages.4References1.

7-Cyclopropyl methyl-7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-9-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)guanine is a purine nucleoside analogue. Purine nucleoside analogs have broad antitumor activity targeting indolent lymphoid malignancies. Anticancer mechanisms in this process rely on inhibition of DNA synthesis, induction of apoptosis , etc [1] .
