title: Virus inhibitory effect of combination of 9-(S)-(2,3-dihydroxypropyl) adenine and 6-azauridine.
abstract: Combination of 9-(S)-(2,3-dihydroxypropyl)adenine [(S)-DHPA] and 6-azauridine (AzUrd) is highly active in the selective inhibition of vaccinia virus in chick embryo cell culture. Synergic effect of this combination of compounds was not encountered in HeLa cell culture. Of the 17 analogues related to DHPA studied in this paper, 3 showed medium activity against vaccinia virus, but none of them was as effective as (S)-DHPA in combination with AzUrd.
