A new deoxycytidine analog, 5-hydroxy-2′-deoxycytidine

Biochemical Medicine, 1974
Abstract 5-Hydroxy-2′-deoxycytidine was synthesized as a new compound. It inhibits growth of E. coli only after deamination to 5-hydroxy-2′-deoxyuridine. 5-Hydroxy-2′-deoxycytidine is a more effective inhibitor than 5-hydroxy-2′-deoxyuridine, presumably because maintenance of an inhibitory level of the latter occurs over a longer period of time ...

Deoxycytidine kinase and deoxycytidine deaminase activities in human tumour xenografts

European Journal of Cancer, 1993
Deoxycytidine kinase (dCK) and deaminase (dCDA) are both key enzymes in the activation and inactivation, respectively, of several deoxycytidine antimetabolites. We determined the total dCK and dCDA activities using standard assays, in 28 human solid tumours grown as xenografts in nude mice, and four corresponding cell lines.

Regulation of Deoxycytidine Kinase by Deoxycytidine and Deoxycytidine 5′ Triphosphate in Whole Leukemia and Tumor Cells

1998
The clinical importance of the dCTP salvage pathway is given by the fact that deoxycytidine (dCyd) analogs like cytosine arabinoside (ara-C) are activated via the salvage pathway. The non-toxic prodrug ara-C gains its cytotoxic potential by phosphorylation to the 5′-triphosphate ara-CTP. Not only cellular accumulation, but also retention of ara-CTP are

Deoxycytidine and Radiation Response: Exceedingly High Deoxycytidine Aminohydrolase Activity in Human Liver

Science, 1969
The activity of deoxycytidine aminohydrolase in the liver of various species including man was investigated. An enormously high activity was found in human liver. This fact explains the extraordinarily low level of deoxycytidine in human urine in comparison with that of other tested species.

Deoxycytidine Transport and Metabolism in Choroid Plexus

Journal of Neurochemistry, 1983
Abstract: In vitro, the transport into and release of [3H]deoxycytidine from the isolated choroid plexus, the anatomical locus of the blood‐cerebrospinal fluid barrier, were studied separately. By use of the ability of nitrobenzylthioinosine (NBTI) to inhibit deoxycytidine efflux from choroid plexus, the transport of 1 μM [3H]deoxycytidine into ...

Selective activation of deoxycytidine kinase by thymidine-5′-thiosulphate and release by deoxycytidine in human lymphocytes

Biochemical Pharmacology, 2003
Deoxycytidine kinase (dCK) catalyses the rate-limiting step of the salvage of three natural deoxyribonucleosides as well as several therapeutic nucleoside analogues, which in turn can enhance its enzymatic activity [Biochem Pharmacol 56 (1998) 1175], improving the efficacy of the cytostatic therapy.

Labelling of the thymidine and deoxycytidine bases of DNA by [2-14C]deoxycytidine in cultured L1210 cells

Cancer Letters, 1983
Exposure of cultured L1210 cells to [2-14C]deoxycytidine and analysis or radioactivity incorporated into DNA-pyrimidines revealed that 2.7--5.5-fold more radioactivity is incorporated into DNA-thymine than into cytosine bases. Thus the pathway involving deamination of deoxycytidylate to deoxyuridylate and methylation to thymidylate is highly favored ...
