Gene Information

Application

3-Deazaadenosine has been used as a methylation inhibitor:
  • to study the effect of m6A modification on suppressor of cytokine signaling 2 (SOCS2) expression in colon cancer cells
  • to study its effects on the expression of influenza A virus (IAV) proteins in human lung epithelial cell line
  • to evaluate its effects on the replication of SV40 virus in BSC40 cells

Biochem/physiol Actions

3-Deazaadenosine (DZA), an analog of adenosine, acts as a blocker of S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH)-hydrolase, a regulator of cellular methyltransferase activity. It has been observed in inhibiting some of the factors involved in atherosclerosis and restenosis. DZA inhibits lymphocyte-mediated tumor cell lysis, macrophage phagocytosis, microfilament disorganization, monocyte, and neutrophil chemotaxis. It also inhibits histamine release by basophils, superoxide anion generation, and macrophage lysosomal secretion. DZA possesses anti-inflammatory, anti-human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) properties and inhibitory effects of cytokine expression that include interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) transcription activity.
Possesses antiviral activity inhibitor of leukocyte adhesion to TNF-treated endothelial cells.

The accuracy of homocysteine (Hcy) results is currently compromised by the requirement to separate the plasma within 1 h of sample collection. We studied the effect of temperature on the stability of plasma Hcy over a 72-h time course in

3-Deazaadenosine (DZA), a cellular methylation blocker was reported to induce the caspase-3-like activities-dependent apoptosis in U-937 cells. In this study, we analyzed the activation pathway of the caspase cascade involved in the DZA-induced apoptosis using specific inhibitors of caspases. In

Severe sepsis is accompanied by a profound depression of myocardial contractility. Leukocyte adhesion with subsequent local excess nitric oxide and reactive oxygen species production play major roles for this deleterious effect. We hypothesized that 3-deazaadenosine (c3Ado), an adenosine analogue with
