Background

Peldesine (BCX 34) is a potent, competitive, reversible and orally active purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) inhibitor with IC50s of 36 nM, 5 nM, and 32 nM for human, rat, and mouse red blood cell (RBC) PNP, respectively. Peldesine is also a T-cell proliferation inhibitor with an IC50 of 800 nM. Peldesine has the potential for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, psoriasis and HIV infection treatment[1][2][3][4].

Peldesine (BCX 34; 0-50 µM; 72 hours; Jurkat cells) could inhibit the T-cell proliferation completely at a concentration of less than 10 μM, in the presence of dGuo (10 μM). In contrast, the B-cell proliferation is not affected by Peldesine[1]. Peldesine (BCX 34) suppresses T-cell immune reaction in an IL-2-independent manner, and this means that Peldesine might affect a late phase rather than an early stage in T-cell activation[1].Peldesine also, in the presence but not in the absence of deoxyguanosine, inhibits human leukemia CCRF-CEM T-cell proliferation with an IC50 of 0.57 μM but not rat or mouse T-cell proliferation up to 30 μM[3]. Cell Proliferation Assay[1] Cell Line: Jurkat cells

Oral bioavailability of Peldesine in rats is 76%. Peldesine is orally active in elevating plasma inosine in rats (2-fold at 30 mg/kg), in suppressing ex vivo RBC PNP activity in rats (98% at 3 h. 100 mg/kg), and in suppressing ex vivo skin PNP in mice (39% at 3 h, 100 mg/kg)[3].

Working concentration: mg/ml;

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
3. All of the above co-solvents are available for purchase on the GlpBio website.
