Anti-human immunodeficiency virus type 1 activity and in vitro toxicity of 2'-deoxy-3'-thiacytidine (BCH-189), a novel heterocyclic nucleoside analog
1 Jul 1991
Abstract excerpt
We describe a novel nucleoside analog, 2'-deoxy-3'-thiacytidine (BCH-189), in which the 3' carbon of the ribose ring of 2'-deoxycytidine has been replaced by a sulfur atom. In MT-4 T cells, this compound had significant time- and dose-dependent antiviral activity against five different strains of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) (mean 50% inhibitory dose, 0.73 microM); known 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine...
