Table 1 Toxicity and antiviral activity of zinc tetra-ascorbo-camphorate derivative ("C14") on macrophages, dendritic cells and peripheral blood lymphocytes by using the primary X4-tropic HIV-1NDK and R5-tropic HIV-1Ba-L.

From: Pre-clinical development as microbicide of zinc tetra-ascorbo-camphorate, a novel terpenoid derivative: Potent in vitro inhibitory activity against both R5- and X4-tropic HIV-1 strains without significant in vivo mucosal toxicity
