The chemical syntheses of nuclease-resistant, nontoxic bioactive (2'-5')agonists, 3'-deoxyadenylyl-(2'->5')-3'-deoxyadenylyl-(2'->5')-3'-deoxyadenylyl-(2'->2")-9-[(2"-hydroxyethoxy)methyl]adenine (d3A-d3A-d3A-etherA; 36), 1-benzyl-3'-deoxyadenylyl-(2'->5')-3'-deoxyadenylyl-(2'->5')-3'-deoxyadenylyl-(2'->2")-9-[2"-hydroxyethoxy)methyl]adenine (N1-benzyl-d3A-d3A-d3A-etherA; 37), N6-benzyl-3'-deoxyadenylyl-(2'->5')-3'-deoxyadenylyl-(2'->5')-3'-deoxyadenylyl-(2'->2")-9-[(2"-hydroxyethoxy)methyl]adenine (N6-benzyl-d3A-d3A-d3A-etherA; 38), N6-benzyladenylyl-(2'->5')-adenylyl-(2'->5')-adenylyl-(2'->2")-9-[(2"-hydroxyethoxy)methyl]adenine (N6-benzyl-A-A-A-etheA; 39), as well as the biological activities of 37, 38, and already synthesized and published adenylyl-(2'->5')-adenylyl-(2'->5')-adenylyl-(2'->2")-9-[(2"-hydroxyethoxy)methyl]adenine (A-A-A-etherA; 40), are described. The above (2'-5')A derivatives 37-40 inhibit HIV-1 replication as measured by inhibition of syncytia formation, HIV-1 reverse transcriptase activity, or HIV-1 p24-antigen expression, with no evidence of cytotoxicity. Oligonucleotides 37, 38, and 40 were taken up intact into T cells in culture of cytoplasmic concentrations sufficient to activate the latent endoribonuclease, RNase L. N6-Benzyl-d3A-d3A-d3A-etherA (38) also exerts immunostimulatory effects by increasing expression of monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), and thereby, competing with HIV-1 for binding to a critical HIV-coreceptor.

A partial DNA duplex containing a high efficiency topoisomerase I cleavage site was substituted singly at each of three sites with 3'- deoxyadenosine. Depending on the site of substitution, the facility of the topoisomerase I-mediated cleavage or ligation
