| pubmed-article:9362158 | pubmed:abstractText | When given during pregnancy, the drug 3'-azido-2',3'-dideoxythymidine (AZT) substantially reduces maternal-fetal transmission of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). However, AZT has been shown to be carcinogenic in adult mice after lifetime oral administration. In this study, we assessed the transplacental tumorigenic and genotoxic effects of AZT in the offspring of CD-1 mice and Erythrocebus patas monkeys given AZT orally during pregnancy. | lld:pubmed |
