A sensitive high-performance liquid chromatographic assay has been developed to determine the levels of 3'-amino-3'-deoxythymidine (AMT), a cytotoxic metabolite of 3'-azido-3'-deoxy-thymidine (AZT, zidovudine), in human plasma. The sample pretreatment involved solid-phase extraction using cation-exchange extraction columns. Chromatography was carried out on a C8 column, using a mobile phase of methanol-0.01 M ammonium acetate (pH 5)-0.25 M sodium dioctylsulfosuccinate (60:40:4, v/v/v) and ultraviolet detection at 265 nm. The method has been validated, and stability tests under various conditions have been performed. The lower limit of quantitation is 5 ng/ml (using 500-microliters human plasma samples). The bioanalytical assay has been used for the determination of AMT in patients with AIDS who used AZT.

D000163 Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome An acquired defect of cellular immunity associated with infection by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), a CD4-positive T-lymphocyte count under 200 cells/microliter or less than 14% of total lymphocytes, and increased susceptibility to opportunistic infections and malignant neoplasms. Clinical manifestations also include emaciation (wasting) and dementia. These elements reflect criteria for AIDS as defined by the CDC in 1993.

D015215 Zidovudine A dideoxynucleoside compound in which the 3'-hydroxy group on the sugar moiety has been replaced by an azido group.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.

D015224 Dideoxynucleosides Nucleosides that have two hydroxy groups removed from the sugar moiety. The majority of these compounds have broad-spectrum antiretroviral activity due to their action as antimetabolites. The nucleosides are phosphorylated intracellularly to their 5'-triphosphates and act as chain-terminating inhibitors of viral reverse transcription. 2',3'-Dideoxynucleosides,Dideoxyribonucleosides,ddNus,2',3' Dideoxynucleosides
