The results, collectively, suggest that carzelesin is absorbed and distributed well and that it was therapeutically more efficacious against mouse L1210 leukemia than was U-76074 or adozelesin (U-73975), another cyclopropylpyrroloindole analogue which is currently in phase I clinical trials.
Pyrrolopyrimidines: novel brain-penetrating antioxidants with neuroprotective activity in brain injury and ischemia models.

The results suggest that antioxidant compounds with improved brain parenchymal penetration are better able to limit certain types of ischemic brain damage than those which are localized in the cerebral microvasculature.
Increased lipophilicity and subsequent cell partitioning decrease passive transcellular diffusion of novel, highly lipophilic antioxidants.

These in vitro cell monolayer models do not adequately mimic the in vivo situation by underestimating in vivo bioavailability of highly lipophilic compounds unless acceptors, such as serum proteins, are added to the receiving buffer.

The results of this investigation indicate that ferric bleomycin catalyzes the homolytic cleavage of the O-O bond of 1 almost exclusively while supporting various oxidative reactions.

The enantiomeric ratio remained unchanged after multiple dose administration in the rat, dog, and human although enzyme induction and increased plasma clearance were observed for both enantiomers.
Bioactivation of 6,7-dimethyl-2,4-di-1-pyrrolidinyl-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine (U-89843) to reactive intermediates that bind covalently to macromolecules and produce genotoxicity.

- 27 November 1996
Observations suggest that the positive in vitro UDS results of U-89843 are mediated by the bioactivation of the novel pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine antioxidant, leading to reactive electrophilic intermediates derived from the (hydroxymethyl)pyrrole metabolite U-97924.
