Various 3'-deoxy-3'-C-(hydroxymethyl)-, 3'-deoxy-3'-C-(fluoromethyl)-, 3'-deoxy-3'-C-(azidomethyl)-, and 3'-deoxy-3'-C-(aminomethyl)-substituted nucleosides (total 12 compounds) have been synthesized and evaluated against L1210, P388, S-180, and CCRF-CEM cells and HSV-1, HSV-2, and HIV-1 in culture. Only 3'-deoxy-3'-C-(hydroxymethyl)thymidine (36) was found to show significant anticancer activity against L1210, P388, S-180, and CCRF-CEM cells with ED50 values of 50, 5, 10, and 1 microM, respectively. None of these compounds demonstrated significant antiviral activity against HSV-1, HSV-2, or HIV-1. These compounds were also evaluated against thymidine kinases derived from HSV-I (strain KOS), HSV-2 (strain 333), and mammalian (K562) cells. The thymidine kinase (HSV-1 strain KOS) was inhibited significantly by both 3'-deoxy-3'-C-(hydroxymethyl)- and 3'-deoxy-3'-C-(fluoromethyl)thymidine.

D015215 Zidovudine A dideoxynucleoside compound in which the 3'-hydroxy group on the sugar moiety has been replaced by an azido group. This modification prevents the formation of phosphodiester linkages which are needed for the completion of nucleic acid chains. The compound is a potent inhibitor of HIV replication, acting as a chain-terminator of viral DNA during reverse transcription. It improves immunologic function, partially reverses the HIV-induced neurological dysfunction, and improves certain other clinical abnormalities associated with AIDS. Its principal toxic effect is dose-dependent suppression of bone marrow, resulting in anemia and leukopenia.

D015224 Dideoxynucleosides Nucleosides that have two hydroxy groups removed from the sugar moiety. The majority of these compounds have broad-spectrum antiretroviral activity due to their action as antimetabolites. The nucleosides are phosphorylated intracellularly to their 5'-triphosphates and act as chain-terminating inhibitors of viral reverse transcription. 2',3'-Dideoxynucleosides,Dideoxyribonucleosides,ddNus,2',3' Dideoxynucleosides
