Biological Activity for Fludarabine

Fludarabine is a purine analog that inhibits DNA synthesis. Exhibits antiproliferative activity (IC₅₀ = 1.54 μM in RPMI cells) and triggers apoptosis through increasing Bax and decreasing Bid, XIAP and survivin expression. Inhibits cytokine-induced activation of STAT1 and STAT1-dependent gene transcription in lymphocytes. Also displays anticancer activity against hematological malignancies in vivo.

Compound Libraries for Fludarabine

Fludarabine is also offered as part of the Tocriscreen 2.0 Max, Tocriscreen Antiviral Library and Tocriscreen FDA-Approved Drugs. Find out more about compound libraries available from Tocris.
