Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) completely reverses the activity of azidothymidine (AZT) against human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) in MOLT-4 cell cultures. The 50% effective concentration of AZT, required to protect MOLT-4 cells against the cytopathic effect of HIV-1, increased from 5.8 nM in the absence of TNF-alpha to greater than 125 microM in the presence of TNF-alpha (100 U/ml). TNF-alpha also antagonized the anti-HIV-1 activity of dideoxycytidine but did not markedly affect the anti-HIV-1 activity of dextran sulfate. The intracellular phosphorylation pattern of AZT was not changed upon the presence of TNF-alpha.
肿瘤坏死因子α(TNF-α)在MOLT-4细胞培养物中完全逆转了叠氮胸苷(AZT)对1型人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV-1)的活性。保护MOLT-4细胞免受HIV-1细胞病变效应所需的AZT的50%有效浓度,在不存在TNF-α时为5.8 nM,在存在TNF-α(100 U/ml)时增加至大于125 μM。TNF-α还拮抗了双脱氧胞苷的抗HIV-1活性,但对硫酸葡聚糖的抗HIV-1活性没有明显影响。在存在TNF-α的情况下,AZT的细胞内磷酸化模式没有改变。
