carbovir

10/23/1990 - "Carbovir (CBV) is a highly selective carbocyclic nucleoside inhibitor of HIV replication in human lymphocytes and is potentially useful in the treatment of AIDS [Vince et al. (1988) Biochem. "
04/14/1989 - "Carbovir is a novel carbocyclic guanosine derivative that has potent in vitro activity against human immunodeficiency virus, the causative agent of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). "
02/01/1989 - "Carbovir is a novel carbocyclic nucleoside which has been shown to have potent in vitro activity against human immunodeficiency virus, the causative agent of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. "
10/31/1988 - "Its hydrolytic stability and its ability to inhibit the infectivity and replication of HIV in T-cells at concentrations of approximately 200- to 400-fold below toxic concentrations make carbovir a top-priority candidate for development as a potential antiretroviral agent in the treatment of AIDS patients."
02/25/1992 - "Carbocyclic 2',3'-didehydro-2',3'-dideoxyguanosine (carbovir, NSC 614846) is an anti-retroviral agent that may be useful in the treatment of AIDS. "

05/23/2003 - "Mutation of Tyr955 in pol gamma causes the degenerative disease progressive external ophthalmoplegia in humans, and we show that this residue partially accounts for the ability of pol gamma to incorporate D4T-MP and carbovir. "

01/25/1991 - "Given the potent activity of carbovir-TP against HIV-1 reverse transcriptase and its lack of activity against human DNA polymerases, we believe that further evaluation of this compound as a potential drug for the treatment of HIV-1 infection is warranted."

02/01/2001 - "We investigated the replication fitness and susceptibility of the wild-type and five mutant HBVs (L528M, M552I, M552V, L528M/M552I, and L528M/M552V) to 11 compounds [lamivudine, adefovir, entecavir (BMS-200475) (+)-BCH-189 (+/-)-FTC (racivir) (-)-FTC (emtricitabine) (+)-FTC, L-D4FC, L-FMAU (clevudine), D-DAPD, and (-)-carbovir] by transfecting HBV DNA into hepatoma cells and monitoring viral products by Southern blotting. "

02/01/1989 - "Six rats received carbovir (20 mg/kg of body weight) through the jugular vein, and blood samples were collected through the femoral vein 2, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 120, 150, 180, and 240 min after the dose. "
