Biochem/physiol Actions

WR-1065 is the active metabolite of the prodrug amifostine, generated by alkaline phosphatase. It is found to accumulate in many epithelial tissues. WR-1065 protects cellular membranes and DNA from free radical induced damage.
WR-1065 is a cytoprotective cell-permeable ROS scavenge and an active metabolite of Amifostine.
WR-1065 is cytoprotective cell-permeable reactive oxygen species scavenger and p53 activator and re-activator. Recently shown to have antiretroviral activity and an active metabolite of Amifostine which selectively protects normal tissues from the damaging effects of anti-neoplastic radiation therapy.

Manganese superoxide dismutase (SOD2)-mediated adaptive processes that protect against radiation-induced micronucleus formation can be induced in cells after a 2-Gy exposure by previously exposing them to either low-dose ionizing radiation (10cGy) or WR1065 (40μM), the active thiol form of amifostine.

The cytoprotective drug amifostine (Ethyol) protects rats from oral mucositis resulting from a single dose of gamma-irradiation. We expanded earlier studies to determine whether multiple doses of amifostine protect against fractionated or hyperfractionated radiation and whether the active metabolite of
