Abstract
3'-fluoro-2',3'-dideoxy- (3) and 3'-azido-2',3'-dideoxy- (4) beta-L-ribofuranonucleoside derivatives of guanine have been synthesized and their antiviral properties examined. All these derivatives were regioselectively and stereospecifically prepared by glycosylation of 2-N-acetyl-6-O-(diphenylcarbamoyl)guanine 5 with a suitable peracylated L-xylo-furanose sugar 6, followed by appropriate chemical modifications. The prepared compounds were tested for their activity against HIV and HBV viruses, but they did not show significant activity.

Abstract
Oxidative stress and glutathione (GSH) deficit may play an important role in HIV infection pathogenesis, and oral administration of GSH-replenishing drugs such as N-acetylcysteine (NAC) and 2-oxothiazolidine-4(R)-carboxylic acid (OTC) may be associated with an increased survival rate of HIV-infected patients. Nevertheless, beneficial effects of these molecules are restricted in vivo by the high concentrations that are necessary to obtain biological effects, rapid extracellular metabolization, and low availability and plasma concentrations. We synthesized OTC derivatives that are more lipophilic than OTC and theoretically able to overcome these limitations and to generate, in addition to cysteine, other substrates of the gamma-glutamyl cycle. Their antiviral effects were investigated in human HIV-1/Ba-L-infected monocyte-derived macrophages. In our experimental conditions, OTC exhibited anti-HIV-1 effects and little cytotoxicity at high doses. None of the nine tested derivatives showed higher cytotoxicity than OTC, nor anti-HIV-1/Ba-L activity.

Abstract
For the first time, the stereospecific synthesis of 9-(beta-L-arabinofuranosyl) adenine was carried out. Unfortunately, and unlike its "natural" D-counterpart Vidarabine, this L-enantiomer did not show significant activity when evaluated against a broad range of viruses.

Abstract
The antiviral activity of L-nucleoside analogs depends in part on the enantioselectivity of nucleoside kinases which catalyse their monophosphorylation. The substrate properties of human recombinant deoxycytidine kinase (dCK) and human recombinant deoxyguanosine kinase (dGK) with respect to L-adenosine and L-guanosine analogs, in the presence of saturating amounts of ATP and relatively high concentrations of substrates, demonstrated a marked lack of enantioselectivity of both these enzymes. Human dCK catalysed the phosphorylation of D- and L-enantiomers of beta-dA, beta-araA, and beta-dG with enantioselectivities favoring the unnatural enantiomer for the adenosine derivatives and the natural enantiomer for 2'-deoxyguanosine. No other tested L-adenosine or L-guanosine analog was a substrate of dCK. Similarly, D- and L-enantiomers of beta-dA, beta-araA, and beta-dG were substrates of human dGK but with different enantioselectivities compared to dCK, especially concerning beta-dA. The present results indicate that human dCK and dGK have similar properties including substrate properties, relaxed enantioselectivities, and possibly catalytic cycles.

Abstract
Model t-Bu-SATE pro-dodecathymidines labeled with fluorescein and exhibiting various lipophilicities were evaluated for their uptake by cells in culture. Pro-oligonucleotides with appropriate lipophilicity were found to permeate across the HeLa cell membrane much more extensively than the control phosphorothioate oligo or than the hydrophilic pro-oligos. Fluorescence patterns of internalization were consistent with a diffusion mechanism resulting in the appearance of a uniform cytoplasmic distribution and nuclear accumulation, as confirmed by confocal microscopy.

Abstract
A simple and efficient protocol for the preparation of various symmetrical dinucleoside phosphoramidates derived from AZT, is presented. It consists of the phosphonylation of AZT with phosphonic acid in the presence of DCC to produce the symmetrical H-phosphonate diester, followed by its oxidative conversion to various phosphoramidate analogues. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their anti-HIV activity in different cell cultures.

Abstract
The synthesis, in vitro anti-HIV activity, and stability studies of AZT 5'-fluorophosphate (F-AZTMP) are reported. The present results demonstrate that such compound is a bioprecursor of its parent 5'-mononucleotide (AZTMP) but its biotransformation does not allow its selective intracellular delivery. Moreover, several attempts were carried out in order to improve the biological activity of this compound by the use of a SATE prodrug strategy.

Abstract
We have compared the HIV-1 RT mutants containing the single substitutions L100I, K103N, V106A, V179D, Y181I and Y188L, known to confer NNI-resistance in treated patients, to HIV-1 RT wt for their sensitivity towards inhibition by D- and L-deoxy- and dideoxy-nucleoside tiphosphates. The results showed a differential effect of the substitutions on the affinity for both D- and L-enantiomers of deoxy- and dideoxy-nucleoside triphosphates and provide a rationale for the utilization of L-dideoxynucleoside analogs with NNI in combination chemotherapy.

Abstract
We demonstrate that L-ATP: 1) as well as its natural D-enantiomer, acts as a phosphate donor in the reaction catalysed by human deoxycytidine kinase; 2) inhibits human DNA-primase and the ATP-dependent T4 DNA ligase. Thus, the lack of enantioselectivity of the enzymes is more frequent than it was believed a few years ago and we suggest that it would depend on chance more than on an evolutionary strategy.

Abstract
beta-L-ddAMP-bis(tbutylSATE) is a potent inhibitor of HBV replication with an EC50 = 0.1 microM. Following a 0- to 72-hrs exposure of human hepatocytes to a 10 microM [2',3'-3H] beta-L-ddAMP-bis(tbutylSATE), the pharmacologically active beta-L-ddATP was the predominant metabolite attaining a concentration of 268.53 +/- 107.97 pmoles/10(6) cells at 2 hrs. In Hep-G2 cell, beta-L-ddATP accounted for 146.8 +/- 29.8 pmoles/10(6) cells at 2 hrs with an half life of approximately 5.4 hrs. This study reveals that extensive intracellular concentrations of beta-L-ddATP after incubation of cells to the parent drug is accounting for its potent antiviral activity.

Abstract
beta-L-2',3'-Dideoxy-5-fluorocytidine (beta-L-FddC), a novel cytidine analog with an unnatural beta-L sugar configuration, has been demonstrated by our group and others to exhibit highly selective in vitro activity against human immunodeficiency virus types 1 and 2 and hepatitis B virus. This encouraging in vitro antiviral activity prompted us to assess its pharmacokinetics in rhesus monkeys. Three monkeys were administered an intravenous dose of [3H] beta-L-FddC at 5 mg/kg of body weight. Following a 3-month washout period, an equivalent oral dose was administered. Plasma and urine samples were collected at various times for up to 24 h after dosing, and drug levels were quantitated by high-pressure liquid chromatography. Pharmacokinetic parameters were obtained on the basis of a two-compartment open model with a first-order elimination from the central compartment. After intravenous administration, the mean peak concentration in plasma (Cmax) was 29.8 +/- 10.5 microM. Total clearance, steady-state volume of distribution, terminal-phase plasma half-life (t1/2 beta), and mean residence time were 0.7 +/- 0.1 liters/h/kg, 1.3 +/- 0.1 liters/kg, 1.8 +/- 0.2 h, and 1.9 +/- 0.2 h, respectively. Approximately 47% +/- 16% of the intravenously administered radioactivity was recovered in the urine as the unchanged drug with no apparent metabolites. beta-L-FddC exhibited a Cmax of 3.2 microM after oral administration, with a time to peak drug concentration of approximately 1.5 h and a t1/2 of 2.2 h. One monkey in the oral administration arm of the study had a significant delay in the absorption of the aqueous administered dose. The absolute bioavailability of orally administered beta-L-FddC ranged from 56 to 66%.
