In vitro Plasmodium falciparum drug sensitivity assay: inhibition of parasite growth by incorporation of stomatocytogenic amphiphiles into the erythrocyte membrane.

abstract：:We recently reported that HIV-1 resistant to 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT) is not cross-resistant to 3'-azido-2',3'-dideoxypurines. This finding suggested that the nucleoside base is a major determinant of HIV-1 resistance to nucleoside analogs. To further explore this hypothesis, we conducted in vitro selection ex...
