Genetic predisposition to dideoxynucleoside-induced mitochondrial dysfunction might be related to mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) polymorphisms. Severe hyperlactataemia is probably the best model to assess such a predisposition. For this exploratory study in White European and Black African HIV-infected adults, hypervariable region

A series of new 5-alkyl-2-benzylsulfanylpyrimidin-4(3H)-ones (5a-y) bearing different substituted arylmethyl moieties at the C-6 position of the pyrimidine core have been synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro activities against HIV-1 and HIV-2 in MT-4 cell cultures. The majority of
In our search for potent anti-HIV and antiplasmodial agents, novel series of flavonoid derivatives and their chalcone intermediates were synthesized and evaluated for inhibition of HIV multiplication and antiproliferative activity on Plasmodium falciparum parasites. Chalcones exhibited a more selective antiplasmodial
Idiopathic noncirrhotic portal hypertension (INCPH) has been reported increasingly in patients with HIV infection. To evaluate the number of nationwide diagnosed HIV-associated INCPH cases and to assess its clinical features, risk factors and outcome. All HIV centres in the Netherlands
The buccal mucosal route offers several advantages but the delivery of certain drugs can be limited by low membrane permeability. This study investigated the buccal permeability properties of didanosine (ddI) and assessed the potential of Aloe vera gel (AVgel) as
