DescriptionAzacytidine also referred to as Azacytidine and 5-azacytidine (brand name: Vidaza) is an anti-cancer chemotherapy medication. The drug is classified as demethylation and antimetabolite agent. Azacytidine acts by inhibiting the growth and proliferation of cancer cells in the body. The drug is indicated for the treatment of specific types of blood cell disorders and bone marrow cancers.
Description5-Azacytidine is an analog of the nucleoside cytidine which can be incorporated into DNA and RNA. 5-Azacytidine acts as an epigenetic modifier by incorporating into DNA where it irreversibly binds to DNA methyltransferases, thus inhibiting their activity.Azacitidine is an antineoplastic agent launched for the treatment of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). MDS is a group of closely related diseases caused by abnormal blood-forming stem cells of the bone marrow. Azacitidine is indicated for the treatment of all five subtypes of MDS, which consist of refractory anemia, refractory anemia with ringed sideroblasts, refractory anemia with excess blasts, refractory anemia with excess blasts in transformation, and chronic myelomonocytic leukemia.
UsesA potent growth inhibitor and cytotoxic agent. It acts as a demethylating agent by inhibiting DNA methyltransferase
UsesAntineoplastic;'Antimetabolite
Usesantianginal
Uses5-Azacytidine, its incorporation into RNA alters RNA synthesis and processing, and results in inhibition of protein synthesis. It has been used as a cancer chemotherapeutic agent. It is a powerful bacteriostatic, antitumor, and mutagenic agent; it also exhibits immunosuppressive, antimitotic, radioprotective, and virostatic effects.
