T20 (generic name: Enfuvirtide, brand name: Fuzeon) is the only FDA-approved HIV fusion inhibitor that is being used for treatment of HIV/AIDS patients who have failed to respond to current antiretroviral drugs. However, it rapidly induces drug resistance in vitro and in vivo. On the basis of the structural and functional information of anti-HIV peptides from a previous study, we designed an HI...
Recent iPrEx clinical trial results provided evidence that systemic preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) with emtricitabine (FTC) and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) can partially prevent rectal HIV transmission in humans. Similarly, we have previously demonstrated that systemic administration of the same FTC-TDF combination efficiently prevented rectal transmission in humanized bone marrow/liver...
The HIV-1 gp41 protein promotes viral entry by mediating the fusion of viral and cellular membranes. A prominent pocket on the surface of a central trimeric coiled coil within gp41 was previously identified as a potential target for drugs that inhibit HIV-1 entry. We designed a peptide, IQN17, which properly presents this pocket. Utilizing IQN17 and mirror-image phage display, we identified cyc...
The first stage of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection involves the fusion of viral and host cellular membranes mediated by viral envelope glycoprotein gp120. Inhibitors that specifically target gp120 are gaining increased attention as therapeutics or preventatives to prevent the spread of HIV-1. One promising new group of inhibitors is the peptide triazoles, which bind to gp1...
A significant number of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections have become resistant to antiretroviral treatment, which means that there is a paramount need for novel drug targets to defeat the virus. Until recently, all HIV drugs inhibited HIV replication by mechanisms operating inside infected cells. In contrast, new antiretroviral drugs operate outside infected cells. Their mechanism ...
Soluble peptides derived from the C-terminal heptad repeat domain of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) gp41 are potent inhibitors of HIV-1 entry and gp41-induced fusion. Target membrane-anchored variants of these peptides have been shown to retain inhibitory activity. Both soluble and membrane-anchored C peptides (MACs) are thought to block fusion by binding to the N-terminal coiled c...
UNLABELLED HIV-1 Env glycoprotein-mediated fusion is initiated upon sequential binding of Env to CD4 and the coreceptor CXCR4 or CCR5. Whereas these interactions are thought to be necessary and sufficient to promote HIV-1 fusion, other host factors can modulate this process. Previous studies reported potent inhibition of HIV-1 fusion by selective P2X1 receptor antagonists, including NF279, and ...
The CC-chemokine receptor CCR5 mediates fusion and entry of the most commonly transmitted human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) strains. We have isolated six new anti-CCR5 murine monoclonal antibodies (MAbs), designated PA8, PA9, PA10, PA11, PA12, and PA14. A panel of CCR5 alanine point mutants was used to map the epitopes of these MAbs and the previously described MAb 2D7 to specific ami...
HIV entry inhibitors have emerged as a new generation of anti-retroviral drug that block viral fusion with the CXCR4 and CCR5 membrane co-receptors. In the last few years, many such entry inhibitors have been developed, and several are currently in clinical trials. However, because no crystal structures for the co-receptor proteins are available, the binding modes of the known inhibitors within...
