HIV protease inhibitors stimulate hepatic triglyceride synthesis.

Hyperlipidemia may complicate the use of HIV protease inhibitors (PIs) in AIDS therapy. To determine the cause of hyperlipidemia, the effect of PIs on lipid metabolism was examined with HepG2 liver cells and AKR/J mice. In HepG2 cells, the PIs ABT-378, nelfinavir, ritonavir, and saquinavir stimulated triglyceride synthesis; ritonavir increased cholesterol synthesis; and amprenavir and indinavir...

Design of new potent HTLV-1 protease inhibitors: in silico study

HTLV-1 and HIV-1 are two major causes for severe T-cell leukemia disease and acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS). HTLV-1 protease, a member of aspartic acid protease family, plays important roles in maturation during virus replication cycle. The impairment of these proteases results in uninfectious HTLV-1virions.Similar to HIV-1protease deliberate mutations that confer drug resistance on...

Resistance mechanism of human immunodeficiency virus type-1 protease to inhibitors: A molecular dynamic approach

Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) protease inhibitors comprise an important class of drugs used in HIV treatments. However, mutations of protease genes accelerated by low fidelity of reverse transcriptase yield drug resistant mutants of reduced affinities for the inhibitors. This problem is considered to be a serious barrier against HIV treatment for the foreseeable future. In this st...

THE DESIGN, MODELING AND EVALUATION OF POTENTIAL HIV PROTEASE INHIBITORS USING BLITZ, AN INTERACTIVE COMPUTER GRAPHICS WORKING TOOL

Several nonpeptide small molecules were designed as potential inhibitors of HIV protease and their structures were constructed by computer-aided molecular modeling and docked iwo the active site of HIV protease. Models of the complexes of inhibitors and the HIV protease were refined using nonbonded and H-bonding terms. The refined energy of selected complexes showed that the designed inhib...
