CHEBI:28680 - cytarabine

Default Structure
ChEBI IDCHEBI:28680
ChEBI Namecytarabine
Stars
DefinitionA pyrimidine nucleoside in which cytosine is attached to D-arabinofuranose via a β-N1-glycosidic bond. Used mainly in the treatment of leukaemia, especially acute non-lymphoblastic leukaemia, cytarabine is an antimetabolite antineoplastic agent that inhibits the synthesis of DNA. It also has antiviral and immunosuppressant properties.

Roles Classification
Biological Roles:
antimetabolite  A substance which is structurally similar to a metabolite but which competes with it or replaces it, and so prevents or reduces its normal utilization.
immunosuppressive agent  An agent that suppresses immune function by one of several mechanisms of action. Classical cytotoxic immunosuppressants act by inhibiting DNA synthesis. Others may act through activation of T-cells or by inhibiting the activation of helper cells. In addition, an immunosuppressive agent is a role played by a compound which is exhibited by a capability to diminish the extent and/or voracity of an immune response.
antiviral agent  A substance that destroys or inhibits replication of viruses.
antimalarial  A drug used in the treatment of malaria. Antimalarials are usually classified on the basis of their action against Plasmodia at different stages in their life cycle in the human.

anti-anaemic agent  A compound which increases either the number of red cells or the amount of haemoglobin in the blood.
antineoplastic agent  A substance that inhibits or prevents the proliferation of neoplasms.
anti-inflammatory agent  Any compound that has anti-inflammatory effects.
antimalarial  A drug used in the treatment of malaria. Antimalarials are usually classified on the basis of their action against Plasmodia at different stages in their life cycle in the human.
antifibrotic agent  Any agent which acts to reduce fibrosis.
anticoagulant  An agent that prevents blood clotting.
