Abstract excerpt
The heterosubstituted nucleoside analogue dOTC [( )-2'-deoxy-3'-oxa-4'-thiocytidine, BCH-10652] is a racemic compound structurally related to 3TC (lamivudine), but has the oxygen and sulphur in the furanosyl ring transposed. Both the enantiomers (-)dOTC (BCH-10618) and (+)dOTC (BCH-10619) had equivalent activity against wild-type strains of HIV-1 in C8166 T-cells (EC50 1.0-10.0 microM) and in PBMCs (EC50 0.1-3.0...
