We examined in vitro the effect of high, but clinically achievable and non-toxic, concentrations of 2'-deoxycytidine (dCyd) (greater than or equal to 100 mumols/l on the metabolism and cytotoxicity of 2',3'-dideoxycytidine (DDC) in normal human bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMMCs) and a cultured T-lymphocyte (HUT-102) cell line. Colony formation in semi-solid medium by bone marrow progenitor cells (CFU-GM and CFU-GEMM) was significantly protected by dCyd against the cytotoxic effects of high doses of DDC. In contrast, in HIV-infected HUT-102 cells, anti-HIV effect of DDC (10 mumols/l) was preserved in the presence of 100 mumols/l dCyd but partially reversed by higher levels of dCyd. dCyd reduced the generation of DDC triphosphate (DDC-TP) relative to dCyd triphosphate (dCTP) pools to a significantly greater extent in BMMCs versus HUT-102 cells. This might explain dCyd-mediated abrogation of DDC cytotoxicity against marrow progenitor cells with relative preservation of its anti-HIV-1 activity in HUT-102 cells.

D015215 Zidovudine A dideoxynucleoside compound in which the 3'-hydroxy group on the sugar moiety has been replaced by an azido group. This modification prevents the formation of phosphodiester linkages which are needed for the completion of nucleic acid chains. The compound is a potent inhibitor of HIV replication, acting as a chain-terminator of viral DNA during reverse transcription. It improves immunologic function, partially reverses the HIV-induced neurological dysfunction, and improves certain other clinical abnormalities associated with AIDS. Its principal toxic effect is dose-dependent suppression of bone marrow, resulting in anemia and leukopenia.

D015683 Gene Products, gag Proteins coded by the retroviral gag gene. The products are usually synthesized as protein precursors or POLYPROTEINS, which are then cleaved by viral proteases to yield the final products. Many of the final products are associated with the nucleoprotein core of the virion. gag is short for group-specific antigen.

D016655 HIV Core Protein p24 A major core protein of the human immunodeficiency virus encoded by the HIV gag gene. HIV-seropositive individuals mount a significant immune response to p24 and thus detection of antibodies to p24 is one basis for determining HIV infection by ELISA and Western blot assays. The protein is also being investigated as a potential HIV immunogen in vaccines.
