Background:

8-Azaguanine is a purine analogue which shows antineoplastic activity.

8-Azaguanine is a purine analogue which shows antineoplastic activity. The results show that cell viability decreases after incubation with 8-Azaguanine, in a dose and time dependent manner. After 24 h of treatment with 8-Azaguanine the IC50 for CEM cell line is about 100 μM while for MOLT3 cell line the IC50 is about 10 μM. CEM and MOLT3 cells surface expression of CD26 increases after treatment with 8-Azaguanine in a concentrations dependent manner[1].
