The normal metabolism of mitochondria in T lymphocytes is unknown, as are the effects from nucleoside-analogue reverse-transcriptase inhibitors that impair mitochondrial polymerase- gamma . We isolated peripheral-blood CD4 and CD8 T lymphocytes from 6 healthy men and stimulated them with anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 antibodies, in the presence and in the absence of didanosine (ddI).
