Bioactivity | 9-((2R,3R,4R,5R)-4-Hydroxy-5-(hydroxymethyl)-3-methoxytetrahydrofuran-2-yl)-9H-purin-6-ol (2'-O-methylinosine) is a purine nucleoside analogue. Purine nucleoside analogs have broad antitumor activity targeting indolent lymphoid malignancies. Anticancer mechanisms in this process rely on inhibition of DNA synthesis, induction of apoptosis, etc[1]. |
