 Deoxyadenosine-resistant human T lymphoblasts with elevated 5'-nucleotidase activity.
Other enzymes of potential importance for deoxyadenosine metabolism were indistinguishable in the two cell types.
In medium supplemented with the adenosine deaminase inhibitor deoxycoformycin, the T cells with increased 5'-nucleotidase accumulated less nucleotides from exogenously added deoxyadenosine, or 9-beta-D-arabinofuranosyladenine, than did parental T lymphocytes.
These metabolic changes were associated with resistance to the growth inhibitory effects of these nucleosides, and also to deoxyguanosine and to 9-beta-D-arabinofuranosylguanine.

 Purine Excretion by Mouse Peritoneal Macrophages Lacking Adenosine Deaminase Activity -- Chan 76 (2): 925 -- ...
Deoxyadenosine, a cytotoxic purine nucleoside, is excreted in large amounts by patients with severe combined immunodeficiency disease associated with deficiency of adenosine deaminase (adenosine aminohydrolase, EC 3.5.4.4).
Furthermore, phagocytosis of nucleated erythrocytes augmented the excretion of deoxyadenosine.
A hypothesis is proposed that macrophages of the reticuloendothelial system are a source of deoxyadenosine, which is one of the two cytotoxic purine nucleosides (the other is adenosine) apparently responsible for the suppression of immune functions in patients with adenosine deaminase deficiency.

Cladribine, an analogue of deoxyadenosine, is highly toxic for both non-dividing and proliferating cells and has shown activity in the treatment of several malignancies.
All aspects of apoptosis are now under intense investigation, from the effects of drugs in both cultured and primary cancer cells of all types, to the study of specific genetic pathways controlling the process.
One such drug is 2-chloro-2¢-deoxyadenosine (cladribine), an analogue of deoxyadenosine, which is resistant to degradation by adenosine deaminase [4-7].

It is imperative that treatment with ADAGEN® (pegademase bovine) Injection be carefully monitored by measurement of the level of ADA activity in plasma.
Monitoring of the level of deoxyadenosine triphosphate (dATP) in erythrocytes is also helpful in determining that the dose of ADAGEN® (pegademase bovine) Injection is adequate.
In patients with ADA deficiency, inadequate elimination of 2'-deoxyadenosine caused a marked elevation in dATP and a decrease in SAHase level in red blood cells.

DDI also known as didanosine is a purine nucleoside that is the structural analogue to deoxyadenosine.
However, DDI differes from deoxyadenosine in DNA by one single 3’-hydroxyl group the DDI group contains a hydrogen substituent [2].
The greater the amount of creatinine clearance results in a smaller half-life quantity for didanosine, as result patients with advanced to moderate renal failure have a greater chance of missing out on the antiviral benefits of DDI.

Adenosine deaminase (ADA) is an enzyme present in all organisms that catalyzes the irreversible deamination of adenosine and deoxyadenosine to inosine and deoxyinosine.
Both adenosine and deoxyadenosine are biologically active purines that can have a deep impact on cellular physiology; notably, ADA deficiency in humans causes severe combined immunodeficiency.
We have established a Drosophila model to study the effects of altered adenosine levels in vivo by genetic elimination of adenosine deaminase-related growth factor-A (ADGF-A), which has ADA activity and is expressed in the gut and hematopoietic organ.

ADA is a key enzyme in the purine salvage pathway that catalyzes the deamination of adenosine and deoxyadenosine to inosine and deoxyinosine, respectively.
Genetic loss of ADA causes a significant increase in adenosine and deoxyadenosine levels, with toxic effects on lymphocytes.

 Deoxyadenosine monophosphate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
You can discuss the issue on the talk page.
Deoxyadenosine monophosphate is a derivative of the common nucleic acid ATP, or adenosine triphosphate, in which the -OH (hydroxyl) group on the 2' carbon on the nucleotide's pentose has been removed (hence the deoxy- part of the name).
Additionally, the diphosphate of the name indicates that two of the phosphoryl groups of GTP have been removed, most likely by hydrolysis.
