A reverse transcriptase (RT) inhibitor with antiviral properties. Has been shown to cause a consistent and rapid telomere shortening in vegetatively growing Tetrahymena. Reduces the proliferation of Jurkat and L1210 cell lines as well as human peripheral blood mononuclear cells at ~250 µM level. In combination with 5-fluorouracil, d4T yields supra-additive cytotoxic effects in colon cancer (WiDr) and breast cancer (MCF-7) cell lines.
