Prolonged hepatitis C infection is the leading cause for cirrhosis of the liver and hepatocellular carcinoma. The etiological agent HCV virus codes a single polyprotein of approximately 3000 amino acids that is processed with the help of a serine protease NS3A to produce structural and
Nineteen patients, (2 adults, 17 children) with inherited bleeding disorders were infused with n-heptane-suspended-heated clotting factor concentrates. Twelve of the nineteen were previously untreated. Six patients were infused with Profilnine Heat-Treated and 13 with Profilate Heat-Treated. Five
Synthesis of a novel 2'-deoxy-guanine carbocyclic nucleoside 4 constructed with spiro[2.4]heptane core structure in the aglycon moiety was carried out. Radical-mediated 5-exo-dig mode cyclization and following cyclopropanation proceeded efficiently to furnish the spiro alcohol 10. Subsequent
An efficient method was developed for the synthesis of 6-exocyclic methylene carbocyclic intermediate 4. The Simmons-Smith cyclopropanation protocol was applied on the 6-exocyclic methylene of intermediate 4 and demonstrated its utility for the synthesis of novel class of a spiro-carbocyclic
BACKGROUND
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA was measured in commercial factor VIII concentrates, that is, antihemophilic factor (human) (AHF), to allow the retrospective evaluation of the effect of various virus-inactivation procedures. The impact on AHF of recent anti-HCV screening of plasma was also
Thromboembolic complications associated with prothrombin complex concentrate treatment may be related to the high levels of factors II and X in these products. We report here results from preclinical safety studies with a human coagulation factor IX product (AlphaNine; Alpha Therapeutic Corp., Los
It is well established that repeated immobilization stress (RIS) is induced by increased levels of cytokines and the emergence of lesions in the liver. Our data prove that interleukin-1 (IL-1) causes liver lesions in stressed Wistar rats. In essence, the relationship between IL-1 and stress-induced
Earlier commercial clotting factor concentrates transmitted hepatitis viruses to 100% and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome viruses to 60% to 80% of patients with hemophilia. Transmission of the human immunodeficiency virus was nearly eliminated by heating concentrates in the lyophilized state,
A method is described to assay sulphated and non-sulphated bile acids in serum using gas-liquid chromatography. Previously described techniques have been substantially modified to allow analysis of free and conjugated salts of the four major bile acids with particular care to ensure quantitative
