Title: Enhancement of host defense by Y-25510, (+-)-3-[4-(2-dimethylamino-1-methylethoxy)phenyl]-1H-pyrazolo[3,4 -b] pyridine-1-acetic acid, a novel synthetic compound. A comparison with recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor in 5-fluorouracil-treated mice. Author: Hisadome M, Fukuda T, Terasawa M, Oe T, Takahata H, Goto K, Tsuru S, Nomoto K. Journal: Int J Immunopharmacol; 1992 Oct; 14(7):1195-201. PubMed ID: 1280628. Abstract: The effect of a novel synthetic compound, Y-25510, (+-)-3-[4-(2-dimethylamino-1-methylethoxy)phenyl]-1H-pyrazolo[3,4 -b] pyridine-1-acetic acid, on recovery from long-lasting leukopenia induced by 5-fluorouracil was compared with that of recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rhG-CSF). When mice were administered i.p. with 5-FU (200 mg/kg) on days 0 and 7, intravenous administration of Y-25510 (100 and 1000 micrograms/kg) prevented the decrease in the peripheral leukocyte and neutrophil number and accelerated the recovery from leukopenia. Subcutaneous administration of rhG-CSF (50 micrograms/kg) did not prevent leukopenia but accelerated the recovery from leukopenia. In particular, peripheral neutrophil number increased over a normal level. The administration of Y-25510 (10, 100 and 1000 micrograms/kg) restored the decrease in the number of bone marrow cells, spleen cells, lymphocytes, neutrophils and monocytes. The administration of rhG-CSF (50 micrograms/kg) restored the decrease in the number of bone marrow cells, spleen cells, and neutrophils but not that of lymphocytes and monocytes. In fractions of bone marrow cells on day 21, the administration of Y-25510 (1000 micrograms/kg) showed a tendency of restoring the decrease in neutrophil number. In conclusion, the administration of Y-25510 prevented leukopenia and accelerated the recovery from leukopenia in the 5-FU-treated mice. It is suggested that the mechanism of the restorative action of Y-25510 is different from that of rhG-CSF. In a number of immature bone marrow cells Y-25510 has a potent stimulatory effect on the recovery from the decrease in number of hematopoietic cells, keeping a balance in number of each blood cell.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
