K A Watanabe, and T L Su, and U Reichman, and N Greenberg, and C Lopez, and J J Fox

Synthesis of 1-(2-deoxy-2-fluoro-beta-D-arabinofuranosyl)uracils containing a vinyl (4a), 2-halovinyl (4b-d), or ethyl substituent at C-5 was achieved. These nucleosides were found to be about a log order less active than 2'-fluoro-5-iodo-ara-C (FIAC) against HSV-1, but they are much less cytotoxic against normal human lymphocytes than FIAC. Nucleosides 4a and 4e showed good activity against HSV-1 (ED50 = 0.16 and 0.24 microM, respectively) and HSV-2 (ED50 = 0.69 and 0.65 microM) with very little cytotoxicity (ID50 greater than 100 microM).

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007202 Indicators and Reagents Substances used for the detection, identification, analysis, etc. of chemical, biological, or pathologic processes or conditions. Indicators are substances that change in physical appearance, e.g., color, at or approaching the endpoint of a chemical titration, e.g., on the passage between acidity and alkalinity. Reagents are substances used for the detection or determination of another substance by chemical or microscopical means, especially analysis. Types of reagents are precipitants, solvents, oxidizers, reducers, fluxes, and colorimetric reagents.

D008213 Lymphocyte Activation Morphologic alteration of small B LYMPHOCYTES or T LYMPHOCYTES in culture into large blast-like cells able to synthesize DNA and RNA and to divide mitotically. It is induced by INTERLEUKINS; MITOGENS such as PHYTOHEMAGGLUTININS, and by specific ANTIGENS. It may also occur in vivo as in GRAFT REJECTION.

D008214 Lymphocytes White blood cells formed in the body's lymphoid tissue. The nucleus is round or ovoid with coarse, irregularly clumped chromatin while the cytoplasm is typically pale blue with azurophilic (if any) granules. Most lymphocytes can be classified as either T or B (with subpopulations of each), or NATURAL KILLER CELLS. Lymphoid Cells,Cell, Lymphoid,Cells, Lymphoid,Lymphocyte,Lymphoid Cell
