InformationHydroxyurea (NSC-32065) Hydroxyurea (NSC-32065, NCI-C04831, Hydroxycarbamide) is an antineoplastic agent that inhibits DNA synthesis through the inhibition of ribonucleoside diphosphate reductase . Hydroxyurea activates apoptosis and autophagy . HydroxyIn vitrohydroxyurea can inhibit HIV-1 replication. In vitro experiments have shown that the 90% inhibitory concentration (IC90) of hydroxyurea for laboratory strains of HIV-1 in activated PBMC is 0.4 mM. Hydroxyurea was also found to be synergistic with the nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor didanosine and to inhibit HIV-1 replication in activated PBMC; this inhibition may be due to a reduction in deoxynucleoside triphosphate pool sizes. Hydroxyurea has been shown to sensitize didanosine-resistant mutants.hydroxyurea has demonstrated activity in the treatment of sickle cell anemia by increasing the production of fetal hemoglobin, which reduces hemolysis in patients with this disease. Hydroxyurea exerts its cytostatic effect through inhibition of ribonucleotide reductase—the rate-limiting enzyme responsible for the conversion of ribonucleotides to deoxyribonucleotides, which are essential for DNA synthesis. As a result, cellular division is arrested in the S phase.In vivoCell Datacell lines：Concentrations：30 μMIncubation Time：96 hPowder Purity:≥97%.
