Pharmacogenomics and HIV therapeutics.
AIDS offers perhaps the greatest threat to humans by any infectious disease in history. In response to this challenge, at least 19 distinct antiretroviral agents that target HIV reverse transcriptase, protease, or viral entry have been approved for clinical use. Such a broad armamentarium is critical , given the nature of antiretroviral therapy , which requires the lifelong administration of mu...
متن کاملFragment screening and HIV therapeutics.
Fragment screening has proven to be a powerful alternative to traditional methods for drug discovery. Biophysical methods, such as X-ray crystallography, NMR spectroscopy, and surface plasmon resonance, are used to screen a diverse library of small molecule compounds. Although compounds identified via this approach have relatively weak affinity, they provide a good platform for lead development...
متن کاملRedox-Responsive Self-Assembled Chain-Shattering Polymeric Therapeutics.
We report the design and development of redox-responsive chain-shattering polymeric therapeutics (CSPTs). CSPTs were synthesized by condensation polymerization and further modified with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) via "Click" reaction. Size-controlled CSPT nanoparticles (NPs) were formed through nanoprecipitation with high drug loading (up to 18%); the particle size increased in a concentration...
متن کاملChain-shattering polymeric therapeutics with on-demand drug-release capability.
Polymer–drug conjugates are an important polymeric therapeutic (PT) platform with drug molecules being attached by cleavable linkages to the pendant functional groups of linear, branched, brushed polymers that are typically synthesized prior to drug conjugation. The synthesis and conjugation processes developed to date, however, may not provide precise control over the composition and the struc...
متن کاملDevelopment of Core-Corona Type Polymeric Nanoparticles as an Anti-HIV- 1 Vaccine
We developed a novel technology for core-corona polymeric nanoparticles having hydrophilic polymer chains with functional groups. Polystyrene nanoparticles immobilized with the mannose-specific lectin concanavalin A could efficiently capture human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) particles and gp120 antigens on their surface. Since the antigen-capturing nanoparticles were capable of induci...
