  • Title: Differential cell-cycle-dependent inhibition of DNA synthesis by hydroxyurea and cytosine arabinoside in cultured L5178Y mouse lymphoma cells.
    Author: Malec J, Kornacka L, Sawecka J.
    Journal: Arch Immunol Ther Exp (Warsz); 1979; 27(4):539-45. PubMed ID: 518260.
    Abstract:
    The effect of various concentrations of hydroxyurea and cytosine arabinoside on DNA synthesis, measured as 3H-thymidine incorporation, in exponentially growing and synchronized L5178Y cells in culture was investigated. The experiments revealed that each compound causes differential inhibition of DNA synthesis at various times of the S-phase. Maximum sensitivity to hydroxyurea occurred in cells in the late S, and maximum sensitivity to cytosine arabinoside in the early S-phase. When they were given simultaneously in low concentrations an additive effect was observed.
