5-Fluorocytidine (5FC) is an antiviral drug that inhibits the synthesis of DNA. 5FC is a prodrug that is converted to cytosine in vivo, and then incorporated into viral DNA by polymerase chain reactions. The incorporation of 5FC into viral DNA prevents replication and transcription, which can lead to the death of cells infected with HIV. In addition, 5FC has been shown to be effective in treating chronic viral hepatitis and bowel diseases such as Crohn's disease. It also has potential use as a drug target for cancer treatments.
5FC has been shown to inhibit transcription activators in murine hepatoma cells and inhibit the growth of tumors in transfection experiments using human colon cancer cells. This antiviral agent has also been shown to have antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive bacteria, including Clostridium difficile, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes and Enterococcus faec
