Overview
Hypoxanthine (6-hydroxypurine), a purine derivative is a naturally occurring compound. It is the deaminated form of adenine and a breakdown product of adenosine monophosphate (AMP).
Application
Hypoxanthine is a nutrient additive for a variety of cell culture applications involving bacterial, parasite ( Plasmodium falciparum ) and animal cells. Hypoxanthine is a component of selection media used in hybridoma technologies. Hypoxanthine has been used: as a supplement in HEPES (4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid) -buffered Roswell park memorial institute (RPMI) to culture Plasmodium falciparum strain IT/FCR3 in the preparation of Dulbecco′s modified eagle′s medium (DMEM) + MXH for the selection of chimeric modified vaccinia virus ankara (MVA) to generate superoxide anions to prepare hybridoma selection and maintenance media.
Hypoxanthine is capable of stimulating cell death. It can also induce reactive oxygen species (ROS). It results in endothelial dysfunction via apoptosis, stimulated by oxidative stress.
