title: Anti-HBV nucleotide prodrug analogs: synthesis, bioreversibility, and cytotoxicity studies.
abstract: Several pronucleotide analogs of the model anti-HBV dinucleotide 3'-dA-U(2'OMe) have been synthesized and evaluated for stability, bioreversibility and cytotoxicity. These studies have helped identify potential candidates for further evaluation.
