Description:
Carbocyclic arabinofuranosyladenine (cyclaradine), a novel nucleoside analog with such desired features as hydrolytic and enzymatic stability, adenosine deaminase resistance, and low systemic toxicity, inhibited the replication of herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2. The 5'-methoxyacetate prodrug form exhibited significant efficacy in the topical treatment of genital infections by herpes simplex virus type 2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Vince, R -- Daluge, S -- Lee, H -- Shannon, W M -- Arnett, G -- Schafer, T W -- Nagabhushan, T L -- Reichert, P -- Tsai, H -- CA 23263/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1983 Sep 30;221(4618):1405-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6684328" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
