Abstract

Purine nucleotide metabolism has been studied in T-lymphocyte population in healthy subjects and in AIDS bearing patients. Nucleotide content was determined by HPLC. The overall rate of purine nucleotide synthesis was measured following the incorporation of 14C-formate into the nucleotides of a T cell suspension. The authors discuss the results, which indicate interesting variations in nucleotide content and a lower nucleotide synthesis, determined by kinetic studies.
