Abstract

3'-Azido-2',3'-dideoxythymidine is known to cause severe anemia and neutropenia. Although these are rare for 2',3'-dideoxycytidine, it frequently impairs thrombocytogenesis. These differential myelossuppressive features correlated well with the in vitro toxicities of the drugs for a megakaryoblastic cell line and for colony formation of erythroid and granulocytic cells.
