Abstract
During the drug development process, organ toxicity leads to an estimated failure of one-third of novel chemical entities. Drug-induced toxicity is increasingly associated with mitochondrial dysfunction, but identifying the underlying molecular mechanisms remains a challenge. Computational modeling techniques have proven to be a good tool in searching for drug off-targets. Here, we aimed to identify mitochondrial off-targets of the nephrotoxic drugs tenofovir and gentamicin using different in silico approaches (KRIPO, ProBis and PDID). Dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) and pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) were predicted as potential novel off-target sites for tenofovir and gentamicin, respectively. The predicted targets were evaluated in vitro, using (colorimetric) enzymatic activity measurements. Tenofovir did not inhibit DHODH activity, while gentamicin potently reduced PDH activity. In conclusion, the use of in silico methods appeared a valuable approach in predicting PDH as a mitochondrial off-target of gentamicin. Further research is required to investigate the contribution of PDH inhibition to overall renal toxicity of gentamicin.

Abstract
AIMS Maternal treatment with nucleoside analogues such as telbivudine (LdT) and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) has been applied worldwide. However, administration of LdT or TDF during pregnancy may affect the fetal neuromuscular development. We conducted the current study to investigate the histological pathology and transcriptomic changes pertaining to the neuromuscular system of the newborn exposed to LdT or TDF during pregnancy in rodent model. MAIN METHODS Pregnant C57/BL6 mice were randomly divided into three arms and administered either with LdT solution (0.1 ml, 78 mg/kg/d), TDF solution (0.1 ml, 39 mg/kg/d) or normal saline solution (0.1 ml). Pups in each arm were weighed and sacrificed after birth. Both sides of quadriceps femoris muscle of the newborn were obtained. The histological observation was conducted under light microscope. The transcriptional profiling was analyzed with RNA sequencing (RNA seq). KEY FINDINGS Four types of morphological abnormalities of the newborn neuromuscular system, being clusters of rhabdomyoblasts, skeletal muscle fibrosis, rhabdomyolysis and necrosis and immature muscle fiber bundles, were noted in both LdT group and TDF group. Moreover, both groups showed significantly decreased gross cross-sectional area of muscle fiber and significantly increased percentage of muscle lesion area. RNA seq identified a total of 164 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) essential to fetal neuromuscular development. These DEGs were involved in calcium regulation, phospholipid activity, muscle cell development, the functioning of mitochondria/endoplasmic reticulum/lysosome/cytoskeleton, the regulation of arachidonic acid and the development of nervous system. SIGNIFICANCE Our findings suggest maternal administration of LdT or TDF lead to abnormal neuromuscular development in offspring mice. Further study should be encouraged to investigate the down-stream signaling pathways.

Abstract
PURPOSE Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) is an accepted treatment option for patients with virus infection. Mounting evidence indicated that persistent HAART treatment is implicated with increased morbidity of HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND) in patients. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), a novel nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI), was used in patients with HIV co-infected with HBV. And it is still a vital first-line antiretroviral compounds in HAART. However, whether persistent treatment with TDF is involved in HAND development remains to be further elucidated. In this study, we aimed to discuss the neurotoxicity of TDF. METHODS We used SH-SY5Y cells and primary neuronal cells to evaluate the neurotoxicity of TDF in vitro. The cytotoxicity of TDF on SH-SY5Y cells and primary neuronal cells was evaluated by the cell viability and LDH levels by MTT assay and LDH kit, respectively. Hoechst 33342 staining, TUNEL assay and flow cytometry were performed to evaluate the cells apoptosis. The intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and malondialdehyde (MDA) production were measured by commercial kits. In addition, the activation level of caspase-3 was evaluated using spectrophotometry and western blotting. RESULTS Our results showed that TDF treatment significantly induced cell viability and induced apoptosis of SH-SY5Y cells and primary neuronal cells. Furthermore, the ROS levels and MDA productions were significantly up-regulated in nerve cells treated with TDF. CONCLUSION: Our findings indicated that TDF may induce neuronal cell apoptosis through increasing the intracellular ROS and the expression level of caspase-3, which may be related to the increasing prevalence of HAND.

Abstract
Background: Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) can induce proximal renal tubulopathy (PRT) and necessitate changes in treatment regimen. This prospective study aimed to compare tubular function recovery following early switching versus late switching of TDF in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients with TDF-induced PRT.Methods: For this prospective study, conducted during 2017-2019, we enrolled HIV-1-infected, virologically suppressed adults undergoing TDF-containing combination antiretroviral therapy. Patients were separated into a late-switching group (LSG) and an early-switching group (ESG). The LSG included patients having an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decrease ≥25% from the pretreatment level or Fanconi syndrome. The ESG included patients having ≥2 of the following indicators of PRT: fractional excretion of phosphate (FEUP) ≥10%, low tubular maximum reabsorption of phosphate (TmP)/GFR, or uricosuria; fractional uric acid excretion ≥10%; urine protein-creatinine index (UPCI) ≥500 mg/g creatinine, normoglycemic glycosuria, or decrease in eGFR of 15%-24%. Recovery of proximal tubular function at 6 and 12 months after TDF discontinuation was assessed. Complete recovery was defined as normalization of all abnormal tubular markers.Results: Thirty-three HIV-infected patients were enrolled (70% male). Except for tubular function markers, baseline characteristics were not significantly different between the two groups. The proportion of patients having complete recovery was significantly higher in the ESG (p = 0.007, log-rank test). FEUP improved significantly in the ESG after TDF discontinuation; improvements of eGFR and UPCI were greater in the LSG. An eGFR change of 10% from baseline was the only independent predictor of failure to achieve complete recovery after switching. After median follow-up of 2.25 years post-trial, sustained recovery of eGFR within 5% of pre-TDF eGFR was achieved only in the ESG.Conclusions: Early-switching of TDF in HIV patients with PRT may allow complete recovery of proximal renal tubular function.

Abstract
The toxicity of tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) hemifumarate (HF) was evaluated when administered by continuous subcutaneous (s.c.) infusion via an external infusion pump for 28 days to rats and dogs. The toxicokinetics of TAF and two metabolites, tenofovir (TFV) and tenofovir diphosphate (TFV-DP) were also evaluated. After administration of TAF HF in rats and dogs, primary systemic findings supported an inflammatory response that was considered minimal to mild. Gross pathology and histopathologic evaluation of tissue surrounding the s.c. infusion site revealed signs of inflammation, including edema, mass formation, fibrosis, and mononuclear cell inflammation in groups receiving ≥300 μg/kg/day in rats and ≥25 μg/day in dogs. Although these changes were observed in animals receiving vehicle, the severity was greater in animals receiving TAF HF. Changes in the local tissue were considered a TAF HF-mediated exacerbation of an inflammatory response to the presence of the catheter. In rats, systemic and local findings were considered not adverse due to their low severity and reversibility; therefore, the "no observed adverse effect level" (NOAEL) was set at 1,000 μg/kg/day. Because none of the systemic findings were related to systemic exposure to TAF, the systemic NOAEL was set at 250 μg/kg/day in dogs. Due to the severity of the observations noted, a NOAEL for local toxicity could not be established. Although these results might allow for exploration of tolerability and pharmacokinetics of s.c. administered TAF HF in humans, data suggest a local reaction may develop in humans at doses below a clinically relevant dose. IMPORTANCE Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection continues to be a serious global human health issue, with ∼38 million people living with HIV worldwide at the end of 2019. HIV preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) has introduced the use of antiretroviral therapies as another helpful tool for slowing the spread of HIV worldwide. One possible solution to the problem of inconsistent access and poor adherence to HIV PrEP therapies is the development of subcutaneous (s.c.) depots or s.c. implantable devices that continuously administer protective levels of an HIV PrEP therapy for weeks, months, or even years at a time. We evaluate here the toxicity of tenofovir alafenamide, a potent inhibitor or HIV replication, after continuous s.c. infusion in rats and dogs for HIV PrEP.

Abstract
Antiretroviral therapy (ART) in pregnancy has dramatically reduced HIV vertical transmission rates. Consequently, there is a growing number of children that are HIV exposed uninfected (CHEUs). Studies suggest that CHEUs exposed in utero to ART may experience developmental delays compared to their peers. We investigated the effects of in utero ART exposure on perinatal neurodevelopment in mice, through assessment of developmental milestones. Developmental milestone tests (parallel to reflex testing in human infants) are reflective of brain maturity and useful in predicting later behavioral outcomes. We hypothesized that ART in pregnancy alters the in utero environment and thereby alters developmental milestone outcomes in pups. Throughout pregnancy, dams were treated with boosted-atazanavir combined with either abacavir/lamivudine (ATV/r/ABC/3TC), or tenofovir/emtricitabine (ATV/r/TDF/FTC), or water as control. Pups were assessed daily for general somatic growth and on a battery of tests for primitive reflexes including surface-righting, negative-geotaxis, cliff-aversion, rooting, ear-twitch, auditory-reflex, forelimb-grasp, air-righting, behaviors in the neonatal open field, and olfactory test. In utero exposure to either ART regimen delayed somatic growth in offspring and evoked significant delays in the development of negative geotaxis, cliff-aversion, and ear-twitch reflexes. Exposure to ATV/r/ABC/3TC was also associated with olfactory deficits in male and forelimb grasp deficits in female pups. To explore whether delays persisted into adulthood we assessed performance in the open field test. We observed no significant differences between treatment arm for males. In females, ATV/r/TDF/FTC exposure was associated with lower total distance travelled and less ambulatory time in the centre, while ATV/r/ABC/3TC exposure was associated with higher resting times compared to controls. In utero PI-based ART exposure delays the appearance of primitive reflexes that involve vestibular and sensory-motor pathways in a mouse model. Our findings suggest that ART could be disrupting the normal progress/maturation of the underlying neurocircuits and encourage further investigation for underlying mechanisms.

Abstract
Antiretroviral (ARV) treatment may induce metabolic complications in HIV patients on long-term therapy that can affect bone health. In this study, the effects of the ARVs Stavudine (d4T), Tenofovir (TDF) and Lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r) on bone metabolism and lipodystrophy were directly compared in rats to negate the consequences of HIV-associated confounding factors. Healthy 12-14-week-old male Wistar rats (n = 40) were divided into four treatment groups and received an oral animal equivalent dose of either Stavudine (6.2 mg/kg/day), TDF (26.6 mg/kg/day), LPV/r (70.8 mg/kg/day) or water (Control 1.5 mL water/day) for a period of 9 weeks. Whole-body DXA measurements, a biomechanical three-point breaking test and histomorphometric analysis were performed on the femurs and tibias at the end of the treatment period. Stavudine monotherapy was found to be associated with decreased femoral bone mineral density that translated into reduced bone strength, whereas histomorphometric analysis demonstrated that Stavudine induces an imbalance in bone metabolism at tissue level, evident in higher resorption (eroded surfaces, osteoclast surfaces and osteoclast number) and lower formation parameters (osteoblast surfaces and osteoid surfaces). This was less clear in the rats treated with either TDF or LPV/r. Furthermore, both Stavudine and TDF treatment resulted in significant bone marrow adiposity, although no significant redistribution of body fat was noted in the treated rats compared to controls. The data from this study suggest that in the absence of HIV-associated factors, LPV/r is less detrimental to bone metabolism compared to Stavudine and TDF.

Abstract
RATIONALE Recently tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) has been widely used as a first-line therapy for chronic hepatitis B (CHB) infection. Although TDF demonstrates successful viral suppression, the possibility of renal failure and lactic acidosis has been proposed with TDF administration, especially in human immunodeficiency virus co-infected patients. However, TDF induced lactic acidosis has never been reported in CHB mono-infected patients. PATIENT CONCERNS A 59-year-old man received TDF for hepatitis B associated with cirrhosis. After ten days of TDF administration, nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain developed. High anion gap acidosis with elevated lactate level (pH 7.341, pCO2 29.7 mmHg, HCO3- 15.6mmHg, lactate 3.2mmol/L, anion gap 15.4 mEq/L) was developed. DIAGNOSIS With no infection, normal diagnostic paracentesis, and urinalysis together with high anion gap and increased blood lactate levels suggested lactic acidosis. INTERVENTIONS TDF was stopped, and haemodialysis was performed to control lactic acidosis. OUTCOMES Although stopping TDF instantly and treating lactic acidosis using hemodialysis, the patient died. LESSONS Although, Fatal lactic acidosis is very rare in TDF patient, however, decompensated cirrhotic patients should be closely observed to keep the possibility of lactic acidosis in mind.
