Inhibition of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HTV-1) Replication In Vitro by Noncytotoxic Doses of Camptothecin, a Topoisomerase I Inhibitor
1 Jan 1991
Abstract excerpt
We examined the effects of topoisomerase inhibitors on human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection of H9 cells in cell culture. Infection is blocked or substantially reduced by the topoisomerase I inhibitor camptothecin (CPT), but not by two topoisomerase II inhibitors. Significant reduction (greater than or equal to 90%) in the amount of virus released, as measured by reverse transcriptase, is obtained...
