Biochem/physiol Actions
Forodesine (BCX-1777; ImmH; Immucillin-H) is an orally active, tight-binding (bovine/human PNP Ki = 23/72 pM) and highly potent purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP, PNPase) inhibtor (IC50 in nM = 0.48/mouse, 0.66/monkey, 1.19/human, 1.24/rat, 1.57/dog) that mimics the PNP transition-state structure. Forodesine inhibits human T-cell proliferation stimulated by IL-2, MLR- and PHA in cultures (IC50 in the presence of 10 μM dGuo = 60, 50, and 387 nM, respectively) and shows in vivo efficacy in a xenogeneic graft vs. host disease model using hu-PBL SCID mice (20 mg/kg b.i.d. p.o.).
Orally active, tight-binding and highly potent purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP; PNPase) transition-state inhibtor in vitro and in vivo.

Multiple myeloma (MM) is the second most commonly diagnosed hematological malignancy, characterized by a monoclonal proliferation of malignant cells in the bone marrow. Despite recent advances in treatment strategies, MM remains incurable and new therapeutical targets are needed. Recently forodesine

Genetic defects in human purine nucleoside phosphorylase cause T-cell deficiency as the major phenotype. It has been proposed that efficient inhibitors of the enzyme might intervene in disorders of T-cell function. Compounds with features of the transition-state structure of purine
