Cyclocytidine is a prodrug form of cytarabine (Item No. 16069) that is hydrolyzed to cytarabine in vivo.{45623} It inhibits the growth of L5178Y leukemia cells in vitro (IC50 = 0.041 µg/ml) and inhibits DNA synthesis by inhibiting thymidine incorporation into DNA (IC50 = 110 µg/ml).{45624} It increases lifespan in an L1210 mouse model of leukemia when administered at doses ranging from 3 to 1,000 mg/kg per day.{45623} Cyclocytidine transiently increases blood pressure in dogs, cats, and rats when administered at doses ranging from 5 to 100 mg/kg and induces postural hypotension in dogs, an effect that can be blocked by the α-adrenergic receptor antagonist phentolamine (Item No. 16135).{45625}
