Biological activities

Decitabine is a DNA methyltransferase inhibitor. Decitabine induces cell cycle arrest at the G1 and G2/M phases. Decitabine also increases phosphorylation of p38 MAP kinase. Decitabine prevents growth by inducing cell cycle arrest at the G1 phase mediated by p21(WAF1) and the G2/M phase through activation of the p38 MAP kinase pathway. [1] Decitabine decreases the levels of ABCB1 mRNA and P-gp expressions in MOLT4/daunorubicin-resistant and Jurkat/doxorubicin-resistant cells.[2] The combination of decitabine and SAHA (a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor) produces synergistic prevention of Hey and SKOv3 cell growth by apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. Decitabine gives rise to autophagy in Hey cells that is enhanced by SAHA.[3] Decitabine induces significant levels of Gadd45a protein in U2OS xenografts.[4]

Protocols

In vivo Decitabine is dissolved in saline.[4]
