| Abstract | Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) strains were isolated from nine patients before and after prolonged therapy with either an alternating regimen of 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT) and 2',3'-dideoxycytidine (ddC) (AZT/ddC) or 2',3'-dideoxyinosine (ddI) alone. All strains obtained from four patients who received AZT/ddC for up to 41 mo were highly insensitive to AZT in vitro. Only one strain obtained after AZT/ddC therapy showed reduced susceptibility to ddC in addition to AZT and had previously unreported amino acid substitutions in the viral polymerase-encoding pol region, whereas three other strains had one or more of the five previously reported AZT-related mutations. In five HIV-1 strains from patients who received ddI for up to 29 mo, no appreciable decrease in sensitivity to ddI was detected. Two strains isolated after ddI therapy had no significant amino acid mutations, although three strains had a mutation reportedly associated with ddI administration. These data suggest that HIV-1 develops reduced susceptibility to AZT more readily than to ddC and ddI and/or that the reduced susceptibility to ddC and ddI is modest in degree. Moreover, the present data suggest that an alternating regimen of AZT and ddC does not block the emergence of AZT-insensitive variants. It should be noted, however, that the current results do not provide a basis for concluding that AZT/ddC or ddI is inferior, equivalent, or superior to AZT as therapy of AIDS. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
