Handling Instructions Technical Support

Acyclovir (Aciclovir) sodium is a potent, orally active antiviral agent. Acyclovir sodium has antiherpetic activity with IC50 values of 0.85 μM and 0.86 μM for HSV-1 and HSV-2, respectively. Acyclovir sodium induces cell cycle perturbation and apoptosis. Acyclovir sodium prevents bacterial infections during induction therapy for acute leukaemia.

    In Vitro

    Acyclovir (Aciclovir) sodium (3-100 µM; 24-72 hours; Jurkat, U937, and K562 leukemia cells) reduces cell viability in a dose- and time-dependent[1].
    Acyclovir (Aciclovir) sodium (10-100 µM; 24-72 hours; Jurkat cells) blocks DNA synthesis, thereby arresting the cell cycle in G2/M and S phases and increasing the sub-G1 hypodiploid peak in a dose-dependent manner[1].
    Acyclovir (Aciclovir) sodium (10-100 µM; 24-72 hours; Jurkat cells) induces apoptosis through activates caspase-3 and presences nuclear DNA fragmentation[1].

    Apoptosis Analysis[1]

    Cell Line: Jurkat cells
    Concentration: 10 and 100 µM
    Incubation Time: 24, 48 and 72 hours
    Result: Increased of caspase-3 activity and cleavaged the internucleosomal DNA.

    Cell Cycle Analysis[1]

    Cell Line: Jurkat cells
    Concentration: 10 and 100 µM
    Incubation Time: 24, 48 and 72 hours
    Result: Revealed a dose-dependent accumulation of cells in S phase after 24 and 48 h. Showed a dose-dependent increase of the sub-G1 hypodiploid peak after 72 h.
    In Vivo

    Acyclovir (Aciclovir) sodium (20 mg/kg; p.o.; three times daily; for 10 d; BALB/c mice) suppresses the development of skin lesions and results in a dissociation between DTH response and antibody production[3]

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
