Biological Activity
Abacavir (15 and 150 μM, 0-120 h) monosulfate inhibits cell growth, affects cell cycle progression, induces senescence and modulates LINE-1 mRNA expression in prostate cancer cell lines[1].
Abacavir (15 and 150 μM, 18 h) monosulfate significantly reduces cell migration and inhibits cell invasion[1].
Abacavir monsulfate induces fat apoptosis[4].
