Acrolein enhances epigenetic modifications, FasL expression and hepatocyte toxicity induced by anti-HIV drug Zidovudine

Abstract: Zidovudine (AZT) remains the mainstay of antiretroviral therapy against HIV in resource-poor countries; however, its use is frequently associated with hepatotoxicity. Not all HIV patients on AZT develop hepatotoxicity, and the determining factors are unclear. Alcohol consumption and cigarette smoking are known risk factors for HIV hepatotoxicity, and both are significant sources of acrolein, a highly reactive and toxic aldehyde. This study examines the potential hepatotoxic interactions between acrolein and AZ… Show more

“…The choice of drugs for immunosuppression and antiretroviral therapy is another key factor. Potential hepatotoxicity must be considered in the selection of HAART regimens to reduce liver-related mortality, such as stavudine (D4T) [ 39 ], azidothymidine (AZT) [ 40 ] or didanosine (ddI) [ 41 ]. All Chinese patients did not receive the above HAART drugs.…”

“…ZDV, SQV, and EFV remain the most commonly used anti‐HIV drugs in third‐world countries. [ 15 ] VACV is the first‐line treatment for HSV. [ 16 ] The sequence of 2019‐nCoV is similar to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus and Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS‐CoV).…”

“…[15,16] In 1987, zidovudine, the first nucleoside drug for blocking the HIV reverse transcription (RT), was born. [17] Subsequently, new drugs such as didanosine and zalcitabine continued to emerge. Although these drugs contributed to a significant inhibitory effect on HIV, they had widespread serious drawbacks such as poor selectivity and HIV susceptibility.…”
