MATERIALS AND METHODSChemicals.[sH] D4T (20 Ci/mmol) was obtained from Moravek Biochemicals (Brea, CA). All other chemicals and reagents were of the highest analytical grade available. Ql&. Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) obtained from whole blood of healthy HIV and hepatitis B virus-seronegative volunteers were separated either by sedimentation of heparinized fresh whole blood in a LeucoPREP cell separation tube at 23’or by single-step Ficoll-Hypaque discontinuous gradient centrifugation. The mononuclear cell layer was collected and washed with cold phosphate-buffered solution (PBS). The cell pellet was then resuspended in RPM1 1640 medium supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum, 1% sodium pyruvate, 1% non-essential amino acids and 1% Penicillin-Streptomycin-Fungizone at a concentration of 1 x 106 cells/ml. For experiments performed with phytohemagglutinin(PHA)-stimulated PBMC, PHA was added to the cultures at a final concentration of 5 pg./t&. All cultures were incubated at 37’under 5% CO2 for specified time periods.To examine the activation of D4T in stimulated PBMC and its degree of variation among different individuals, cultures were prepared by preincubation with PHA for 48-72 hr. Following removal of PHA from culture, drug was then added with fresh medium and incubated for time periods up to 48 hr. In resting PBMC, drug was added to the freshly prepared culture and incubated for 24 hr.@ After incubation with 2, 10 or 25 pM [sH] D4T, cells were pelleted by centrifugation and washed with cold PBS, and then pellets were extracted twice at-20’with 1 mL of cold 60% methanol. Following removal of
