Gemcitabine-O-Si(di-iso)-O-Mc, a drug-linker conjugate for Antibody-Drug Conjugates (ADC), exhibits potent antitumor activity. It incorporates Gemcitabine, a pyrimidine nucleosideanalog antimetabolite and antineoplastic agent, connected through the ADC linker[1].
GS-441524tris-isobutyryl ester is a prodrug form of the antiviral nucleosideanalog and remdesivir metabolite GS-441524 .1It reduces the cytopathic effect of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in infected HEp-2 cells with an EC50value of 0.26 μM. 1.Mackman, R.L., Hui, H.C., Perron, M., et al.Prodrugs of a 1’-CN-4-aza-7,9-dideazaadenosine C-nucleoside leading to the discovery of remdesivir (GS-5734) as a potent inhibitor of respiratory syncytial virus with efficacy in the african green monkey model of RSVJ.

Ribavirin-13C5is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of ribavirin by GC- or LC-MS. Ribavirin is an antiviral guanosine nucleosideanalog.1,2Upon entry into cells, ribavirin is metabolized to an active triphosphate form that induces viral RNA chain termination and inhibits viral polymerases. It reduces replication in a panel of seven RNA and four DNA viruses in Vero cells (EC50s = 2-95 μg/ml).3Ribavirin also reduces replication of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in Vero cells (EC50= 109.5 μM).4Aerosol administration of ribavirin (30 mg/kg) reduces mortality in a mouse model of influenza A infection.5Formulations containing ribavirin have been used in the treatment of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), and viral hemorrhagic fevers. 1.Gilbert, B.E., and Knight, V.Biochemistry and clinical applications of ribavirinAntimicrob.
