Abstract:Lipophilic 6-chloro-2',3'-dideoxyguanosine (6-Cl-ddG) was evaluated for its improved lymph node delivery by comparison with the parental nucleoside (ddG) in vitro and in vivo. The in vitro studies with rat plasma, lymph node homogenate and stomach content indicated that 6-Cl-ddG converted to ddG more effectively in the lymph node homogenate and that 6-Cl-ddG was more stable than ddG in the stomach content. In an in vivo study, plasma and lymph nodes were collected from rats after a subcutaneous or oral adminis… Show more
