Beschreibung

Allopurinol riboside is a hydroxyl analog of allopurinol. Allopurinol riboside has minimal toxicity in tissue culture and exhibits no cytotoxicity in human serum. It is a potent inhibitor of microbial infection, including infections caused by Hepatitis C virus (HCV), Leishmania amazonensis, and Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Allopurinol riboside binds to adenine nucleotide and inhibits the synthesis of purines, which are necessary for DNA replication. This binding also inhibits the production of ATP, leading to cell death. In addition, allopurinol riboside inhibits the growth of human macrophages in vitro by inhibiting protein synthesis. Allopurinol riboside may be useful for treating HCV-induced liver disease or leishmaniasis.
