Differential Incorporation of Ara-C, Gemcitabine, and Fludarabine Into Replicating and Repairing DNA in Proliferating Human Leukemia Cells
1 Jul 1997
Abstract excerpt
The major actions of nucleoside analogs such as arabinosylcytosine (ara-C) and fludarabine occurs after their incorporation into DNA, during either replication or repair synthesis. The metabolic salvage and DNA incorporation of the normal nucleoside, deoxycytidine, is functionally compartmentalized toward repair synthesis in a process regulated by ribonucleotide reductase. The aim of this study was to investigate...
