BCX-34: a novel T-cell selective immunosuppressant: purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) inhibitor.
    Artificial organs, 1996, Volume: 20, Issue:8

    We evaluated the efficacy of a new purine nucleoside phosphorylase inhibitor, BCX-34, as an immunosuppressive agent. BCX-34 showed a complete inhibitory effect on the proliferation of T-cells in an in vitro system, whereas no influence was observed in B-cell lines. In addition, it was revealed that this inhibitory effect was not due to the suppression of interleukin-2 production. Therefore, BCX-34 might be a potentially useful drug that can be used in combination, not competition, with cyclosporine A and FK506.
