This study compares the antitumor activity of five mono- and polyesters of n-butyric acid derived from monosaccharides in the murine model of Crocker 180 TG Sarcoma. Tumor incidence at ten days, mean survival time and final survival rate were significantly affected in all cases. Combined treatment
The use of n-butyric acid has been associated with induction of cell differentiation and bypassing of genetic defects in the suppression of malignancy. This biological response modifier satisfies the requirements for specificity and low toxicity, and its use can be considered as an alternative
Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) infection is associated with Kaposi's sarcoma, primary effusion lymphoma (PEL), and multicentric Castleman's disease. In this study, we used monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) directed against HHV-8 lytic cycle-associated proteins encoded by open reading frame (ORF) 59 (nuclear
The rational design of drugs that can inhibit the action of viral proteases depends on obtaining accurate structures of these enzymes. The crystal structure of chemically synthesized HIV-1 protease has been determined at 2.8 angstrom resolution (R factor of 0.184) with the use of a model based on
