Stavudine

SKU: orb1308721

Description

Stavudine (BMY-27857) is a thymidine-analog nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) active against HIV-1. It has been widely used in antiretroviral research, with established applications in both in vitro antiviral assays and in vivo models of HIV infection.

Bioactivity

• In Vivo:
  Stavudine reduces lipid content and influences the expression of lipid metabolism markers, such as C/EBPα, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ, adipocyte lipid-binding protein 2, fatty acid synthase, and acetyl-CoA carboxylase. In 3T3-F442A cells, Stavudine induces apoptosis and reduces both lipid content and viability in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Furthermore, in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), Stavudine inhibits the production of p24 antigen by HIV-1, with an effective dose range of 0.04 μM to 0.2 μM (ED50 = 0.04 μM-0.2 μM).
• In Vitro:
  In lean mice, Stavudine (500 mg/kg/day) reduces mitochondrial DNA in the liver and muscle, inducing ketoacidosis during fasting periods. In obese mice, Stavudine (500 mg/kg/day) depletes mtDNA in White Adipose Tissue (WAT).
