In vivo studies on high-dose 1-beta-D-arabinofuranosylcytosine (HDara-C) and 1-beta-D-arabinofuranosyluracil (ara-U) with respect to pharmacokinetics, cell kinetics, and cytotoxicity in a rat myelocytic leukemia model (BNML).

From the current studies it can be concluded that comparing the ara-C catabolism to ara-U in leukemic rats and leukemic patients, this process is about 100 times more pronounced in human leukemic cells. The low deaminase activity in leukemic rats probably explains the slow plasma ara-C disappearance curve in the BNML. No cytotoxic effect of ara-U with respect to LCFU-S reduction could be observed, nor did ara-U enhance the cytotoxic effect ara-C in the BNML. These studies have increased the understanding of the relation between ara-C, ara-U plasma levels and deaminase activity.[1]
