Name of medicine
Gemcitabine (dFdC) is metabolised intracellularly by nucleoside kinases to the active diphosphate (dFdCDP) and triphosphate (dFdCTP) nucleosides. The cytotoxic action of gemcitabine appears to be due to inhibition of DNA synthesis by two actions of dFdCDP and dFdCTP. First, dFdCDP inhibits ribonucleotide reductase which is uniquely responsible for catalysing the reactions that generate the deox...
متن کاملProlonged versus standard gemcitabine infusion: translation of molecular pharmacology to new treatment strategy.
Gemcitabine is frequently used in the treatment of patients with solid tumors. Gemcitabine is taken up into the cell via human nucleoside transporters (hNTs) and is intracellularly phosphorylated by deoxycytidine kinase (dCK) to its monophosphate and subsequently into its main active triphosphate metabolite 2',2'-difluorodeoxycytidine triphosphate (dFdCTP), which is incorporated into DNA and in...
متن کاملA linear synthesis of gemcitabine.
Gemcitabine, 2'-deoxy-2',2'-difluorocytidine, is currently prescribed against a number of cancers. Here we report a linear synthesis of gemcitabine with a high-yielding direct conversion of 3,5-di-O-benzoyl-2-deoxy-2,2-difluororibose into the corresponding glycosyl urea as the key step, followed by conventional conversion to the cytosine base via the uracil derivative. The process proceeded wit...
متن کاملCellular pharmacology of gemcitabine.
Gemcitabine (2',2'-difluoro 2'-deoxycytidine, dFdC) is the most important cytidine analogue developed since cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C). The evidence of its potent antitumor activity in a wide spectrum of in vitro and in vivo tumor models has been successfully confirmed in the clinical setting. Despite structural and pharmacological similarities to Ara-C, gemcitabine displays distinctive featu...
متن کاملThe synthesis of gemcitabine.
Gemcitabine is a fluorinated nucleoside currently administered against a number of cancers. It consists of a cytosine base and a 2-deoxy-2,2-difluororibose sugar. The synthetic challenges associated with the introduction of the fluorine atoms, as well as with nucleobase introduction of 2,2-difluorinated sugars, combined with the requirement to have an efficient process suitable for large scale ...
