Descripción

Cyclopentenyl cytosine is a cytotoxic drug that inhibits the synthesis of DNA, RNA, and proteins. It is a nucleoside analogue that inhibits the enzyme activity of ribonucleotide reductase. Cyclopentenyl cytosine has significant cytotoxicity against hl-60 cells, as well as squamous carcinoma and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells. It also has significant activity against cyclopentenyl, dextran sulfate, and mitochondrial functions in vivo in human cells. Cyclopentenyl cytosine binds to the response element on the DNA strand, preventing transcription of genes for protein synthesis and cell division.
