Progressive Mitochondrial Compromise in Brains and Livers of Primates Exposed In Utero to Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors (NRTIs)
11 Aug 2010
Abstract excerpt
Mitochondrial compromise has been documented in infants born to women infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) who received nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) therapy during pregnancy. To model these human exposures, we examined mitochondrial integrity at birth and 1 year in brain cortex and liver from offspring of retroviral-free Erythrocebus patas dams-administered human-equivalent...
