Biochem/physiol Actions

Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (tenofovir DF) is a nucleotide analogue with activity against retroviruses, such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1, HIV-2 and hepadnaviruses.
Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate is a prodrug of tenofovir, a nucleotide analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitor (nRTI) that causes premature termination of DNA transcription. In a T cell line and primary blood lymphocytes, the antiviral activity of tenofovir disoproxil was shown to be more than 100-fold greater than tenofovir because of its rapid intracellular uptake. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate has been used alone and in various combinations for the prevention and treatment of HIV/AIDS and chronic hepatitis B infections and is on the World Health Organization′s List of Essential Medicines.
Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate is a prodrug of tenofovir, a nucleotide analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitor (nRTI); anti-retroviral.

Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) and emtricitabine (FTC) are nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors approved as pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) against human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Prophylactic TDF-based regimens have been shown to reduce the risk of HIV infection by 74 to 92% among

The objective was to determine whether maraviroc (MVC) has unique neurocognitive benefits in the context of initial antiretroviral therapy (ART). Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 48-week trial. Participants were enrolled in US AIDS Clinical Trials Group clinical trial sites. Total 262 ART-naive

Bis(isopropyloxymethylcarbonyl) 9-R-(2-phosphonomethoxypropyl)adenine [bis(POC)PMPA] has been identified as a novel prodrug of PMPA. The anti-human immunodeficiency virus activity of bis(POC)PMPA was >100-fold greater than that of PMPA in both an established T-cell line and primary peripheral blood lymphocytes. This improved efficacy
Elisa De Crignis et al.

The molecular events that drive hepatitis B virus (HBV)-mediated transformation and tumorigenesis have remained largely unclear, due to the absence of a relevant primary model system. Here we propose the use of human liver organoids as a platform for modeling
