AICAR (also called acadesine) is a purine nucleoside. Three pharmacological applications of AICAR were identified: i) stimulation under ischemic conditions of the cardiac production of the vasodilator, adenosine [1]; ii) inhibition of hepatic gluconeogenesis at the level of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase [2], of therapeutic potential in diabetes; and iii) stimulation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), initially applied to inhibit the hepatic synthesis of triglycerides and cholesterol [3].
AICAR (treated 48 hours) inhibited cell proliferation of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) cell lines, REC-1, JEKO-1, UPN-1, JVM-2, MAVER-1 and Z-138, with IC50s of 0.28, 0.59, 0.64, 0.98, 0.50, and 0.14 Mm respectively [4]. AICAR inhibited the growth and depletion of pyrimidine nucleotide pools in fibroblasts [5], accelerated repletion of purine nucleotide pools in heart [6], inhibition of fatty acid, sterol synthesis, and gluconeogenesis in hepatocytes, and increase in glucose uptake in muscle [7].
AICAR (500 mg/kg) injected intraperitoneally into C57BL/6J mice 1 hour before LPS administration. LPS induced the expression of TF mRNA in many major organs, including the lung and liver [8]. A daily administration of 400mg/kg AICAR in mice previously inoculated with a MCL xenotransplant significantly reduced tumor burden when compared to control animals, as soon as 7 days of treatment [9].

| Cell experiment [1]: | |
|
Cell lines |
Nine human MCL cell lines (GRANTA-519, JVM-2, JEKO-1, Z-138, MAVER-1, REC-1, UPN-1, HBL-2 and MINO) |
|
Preparation Method |
MCL cell lines were incubated with AICAR at doses ranging from 0.1 to 2 mM for 24 or 48 hours. |
|
Reaction Conditions |
0.1 to 2 mM for 24 or 48 hours. |
|
Applications |
Most of the cell lines analyzed (REC-1, JEKO-1, UPN-1, JVM-2, MAVER-1 and Z-138) showed a IC50 lower than 1 mM after 48 hours of acadesine incubation. |
| Animal experiment [2]: | |
|
Animal models |
Female Nude NMRI Mice |
|
Preparation Method |
Mice were randomized into two experimental groups, each containing 15 animals. Animals in both groups received a 100 µl injection of 5*106 K562 leukemia cells on both flanks. When tumors reached 150-200 mm3, animals were injected intraperitoneally with NaCl 0.9% or AICAR at dose level of 50 mg/kg body weight. |
|
Dosage form |
Intraperitoneal injection, 0, 0.25, 0.5, 1 or 2 mg |
|
Applications |
AICAR significantly reduced tumor formation in nude mice. Statistical analysis of tumor size shows a robust reduction of 68% at day 16 and 51% at day 20. |
