“In a resting cell model of T lymphocytes which were infected with HTLV‐IIIB, RV plus ddI in combination, but not individually, suppressed establishment of a productive viral infection.”
“In addition, RV plus ddI markedly inhibited the replication of four ddI‐resistant viral isolates, three of which presented mutations in the RT gene conferring RT‐multidrug resistance.”
“In phytohemagglutinin (PHA)‐activated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) infected with HTLV‐IIIB, 10 &mgr;M RV reduced the 90 % inhibitory concentration (IC90) of AZT, ddC, and ddI by 3.5‐, 5.5‐, and 17.8‐fold, respectively.”
“We now report that resveratrol (RV) synergistically enhances the anti‐HIV‐1 activity of the nucleoside analogues zidovudine (AZT), zalcitabine (ddC), and didanosine (ddl).”
