Identification of Authentic Inhibitors of HIV-1 Integration
Current strategies for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection are based on cocktails of drugs that target the viral entry step and the enzymes reverse transcriptase or protease. At present, the clinical benefit of this combination therapy for HIV-infected patients is considerable, although it is not clear how long this effect will last taking into account the emergence of...
متن کاملIdentification of minimal sequence for HIV-1 fusion inhibitors.
Emergence of multi-drug resistant HIV-1 is a serious problem for AIDS treatment. Recently, the virus-cell membrane fusion process has been identified as a promising target for the development of novel drugs against these resistant variants. In this study, we identified a 29-residue peptide fusion inhibitor, SC29EK, which shows activity comparable to the previously reported inhibitor SC35EK. Som...
متن کاملIdentification of potent maturation inhibitors against HIV-1 clade C
Antiretroviral therapy has led to a profound improvement in the clinical care of HIV-infected patients. However, drug tolerability and the evolution of drug resistance have limited treatment options for many patients. Maturation inhibitors are a new class of antiretroviral agents for treatment of HIV-1. They act by interfering with the maturation of the virus by blocking the last step in Gag pr...
متن کاملProgress in HIV-1 integrase inhibitors: A review of their chemical structure diversity
HIV-1 integrase (IN) enzyme, one of the three main enzymes of HIV-1, catalyzed the insertion of the viral DNA into the genome of host cells. Because of the lack of its homologue in human cells and its essential role in HIV-1 replication, IN inhibition represents an attractive therapeutic target for HIV-1 treatment. Since identification of IN as a promising therapeutic target, a major progress h...
