Design, Synthesis, and Antiviral Evaluation of Chimeric Inhibitors of HIV Reverse Transcriptase.

ABSTRACT: In a continuing study of potent bifunctional anti-HIV agents, we rationally designed a novel chimeric inhibitor utilizing thymidine (THY) and a TMC derivative (a diarylpyrimidine NNRTI) linked via a polymethylene linker (ALK). The nucleoside, 5'-hydrogen-phosphonate (H-phosphonate), and 5'-triphosphate forms of this chimeric inhibitor (THY-ALK-TMC) were synthesized and the antiviral activity profiles were evaluated at the enzyme and cellular level. The nucleoside triphosphate (11) and the H-phosphonate (10) derivatives inhibited RT polymerization with an IC50 value of 6.0 and 4.3 nM, respectively. Additionally, chimeric nucleoside (9) and H-phosphonate (10) derivatives reduced HIV replication in a cell-based assay with low nanomolar antiviral potencies.

Project description:BackgroundAcquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) is the advanced stage of infection caused by Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). HIV/AIDS had a great impact on society, both as an illness and as a source of discrimination. Non-Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors (NNRTIs) are structurally diverse group of compounds which binds to Reverse Transcriptase (RT) enzyme of HIV. Like other anti-HIV drugs, long-term clinical effectiveness of approved NNRTIs has been hampered due to the rapid development of drug resistance. So, there is an urgent need to discover the NNRTIs, which can be effective against the drug sensitive as well as drug resistant strains of HIV-1 RT.ResultsTwo series of novel thirty, 6,7-dimethoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline analogues (5a-o) and (8a-o) were designed and synthesized as inhibitor of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase. All the synthesized compounds were characterized by infrared spectroscopy, proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, mass spectroscopy and evaluated for in-vitro RT inhibitory activity. Among the tested compounds, eighteen compounds exhibited more than 50 % inhibition at tested 100 μM concentration, in which two compounds 8h and 8l showed promising inhibition (74.82 and 72.58 %) respectively. The preliminary structure-activity relationship (SAR) of the test compounds and docking studies of the two significantly active compounds 8h and 8l were performed to examine their putative binding with HIV-RT. Predicted physiochemical parameters of the synthesized compounds were within the acceptable range of drugable properties.ConclusionThe results obtained from this investigation revealed that, the synthesized compounds (5a-o) and (8a-o) showed moderate to promising HIV-1 RT inhibition activity. The overall SAR studies can help in identification of further lead as well as in designing of newer potential inhibitor of HIV-1 RT. Graphical AbstractBest docked pose of compound 8h inside the non-nucleoside inhibitory binding pocket of 3MEE enzyme.
