Description：Peldesine (BCX 34) dihydrochloride 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 dihydrochloride is also a T-cell proliferation inhibitor with an IC50 of 800 nM. Peldesine dihydrochloride has the potential for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, psoriasis and HIV infection research.

In Vitro：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].
