Integrase inhibitors in the treatment of HIV-1 infection.
Agents active against HIV type 1 (HIV-1) that target the viral integrase by inhibiting the strand transfer step of integration have now entered the clinical arena. Raltegravir is the first in this new class. Clinical trials in treatment-experienced and in treatment-naive patients have shown that raltegravir-containing regimens have potent antiretroviral activity and are well tolerated. Drug res...
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...

متن کاملEmerging role of integrase inhibitors in the management of treatment-experienced patients with HIV infection
Integrase is an essential HIV-1-specific enzyme that is an active target for antiretroviral drug development. Recently, a new class of drugs that specifically inhibits strand transfer, one of the three steps of HIV integration into the host DNA, has been developed. Two drugs in this class have reached late stages of development for use in HIV-1 infected individuals: raltegravir, which has just ...
متن کاملCharacterization of natural polymorphic sites of the HIV-1 integrase before the introduction of HIV-1 integrase inhibitors in Germany
INTRODUCTION The aim of our study was to analyze the occurrence and evolution of HIV-1 integrase polymorphisms during the HIV-1 epidemic in Germany prior to the introduction of the first integrase inhibitor raltegravir in 2007. MATERIALS AND METHODS Plasma samples from drug-naïve HIV-1 infected individuals newly diagnosed between 1986 and 2006 were used to determine PCR-based population seque...
