9-([2-hydroxy-1-(hydroxymethyl)ethoxy]methyl)guanine: a selective inhibitor of herpes group virus replication

TL;DR: 2'NDG was at least 10-fold more potent than acyclovir (ACV) in inhibition of human cytomegalovirus replication and Epstein-Barr virus-induced lymphocyte transformation and was about as effective as ACV in inhibited of herpes simplex viruses 1 and 2 and varicella zoster virus.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activation of PPARδ alters lipid metabolism in db/db mice

TL;DR: It is shown that treatment of insulin resistant db/db mice with the PPARδ agonist L‐165 041, at doses that had no effect on either glucose or triglycerides, raised total plasma cholesterol concentrations, suggesting both that PPAR δ is involved in the regulation of cholesterol metabolism in db/ db mice and that PP ARδ ligands could potentially have therapeutic value.

Covalently-modified bacterial polysaccharides, stable covalent conjugates of such polysaccharides and immunogenic proteins with bigeneric spacers, and methods of preparing such polysaccharides and conjugates and of confirming covalency

TL;DR: Covalently modified bacterial polysaccharides and proteins, which are useful components of bacterial vaccines, can be found in this paper, and methods of preparing such poly-saccharide, proteins and conjugates and of confirming the covalency of the linkage between poly-charide and proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activation by thymidine kinase and potent antiherpetic activity of 2′-nor-2′-deoxyguanosine (2′NDG)

TL;DR: In an in vivo comparison of 2′NDG with five other known antiherpetic agents including acyclovir for protection of mice against HSV-1 induced encephalitis, 2′ NDG was at least 60-fold more effective.
