General description

5-Iodotubercidin is a purine and modulates cellular adenosine levels by inhibiting the functionality of adenosine kinase. It is an activator for p53 and favors tumor suppression and may serve as a potential chemotherapeutic agent. 5-Iodotubercidin mediated blockade of adenosine to adenosine monophosphate (AMP) conversion results in alleviating antinociceptive effect of AMP. 5-Iodotubercidin is under clinical trial testing for treating epilepsy.
solubility: 10 mg/mL in DMSO

Application

5-Iodotubercidin has been used for the inhibition of retinoblastoma cells, astroglial cultures and for the inhibition of adenosine kinase in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Potent inhibitor of adenosine uptake into brain, and of adenosine kinase and subsequent metabolism of adenine nucleotides. In cultured rat hepatocytes, 5-iodotubercidin inhibits both acetyl-CoA carboxylase and de novo synthesis of fatty acids and cholesterol.
5-Iodotubercidin increases fatty acid oxidation activity and glycogen synthesis in hepatocytes. 5-Iodotubercidin is also a potent inhibitor of adenosine uptake into brain.

Caution

Solutions may be stored frozen. Use promptly when thawed and protect from exposure to light.
