Peptide HIV-1 integrase inhibitors from HIV-1 gene products.

ABSTRACT: Anti-HIV peptides with inhibitory activity against HIV-1 integrase (IN) have been found in overlapping peptide libraries derived from HIV-1 gene products. In a strand transfer assay using IN, inhibitory active peptides with certain sequential motifs related to Vpr- and Env-derived peptides were found. The addition of an octa-arginyl group to the inhibitory peptides caused a remarkable inhibition of the strand transfer and 3'-end-processing reactions catalyzed by IN and significant inhibition against HIV replication.

Peptidic HIV integrase inhibitors derived from HIV gene products: structure-activity relationship studies.

Project description:Structure-activity relationship studies were conducted on HIV integrase (IN) inhibitory peptides which were found by the screening of an overlapping peptide library derived from HIV-1 gene products. Since these peptides located in the second helix of Vpr are considered to have an alpha-helical conformation, Glu-Lys pairs were introduced into the i and i+4 positions to increase the helicity of the lead compound possessing an octa-arginyl group. Ala-scan was also performed on the lead compound for the identification of the amino acid residues responsible for the inhibitory activity. The results indicated the importance of an alpha-helical structure for the expression of inhibitory activity, and presented a binding model of integrase and the lead compound.

Cell-permeable stapled peptides based on HIV-1 integrase inhibitors derived from HIV-1 gene products.

Project description:HIV-1 integrase (IN) is an enzyme which is indispensable for the stable infection of host cells because it catalyzes the insertion of viral DNA into the genome and thus is an attractive target for the development of anti-HIV agents. Earlier, we found Vpr-derived peptides with inhibitory activity against HIV-1 IN. These Vpr-derived peptides are originally located in an ?-helical region of the parent Vpr protein. Addition of an octa-arginyl group to the inhibitory peptides caused significant inhibition against HIV replication associated with an increase in cell permeability but also relatively high cytotoxicity. In the current study, stapled peptides, a new class of stabilized ?-helical peptidomimetics were adopted to enhance the cell permeability of the above lead peptides. A series of stapled peptides, which have a hydrocarbon link formed by a ruthenium-catalyzed ring-closing metathesis reaction between successive turns of ?-helix, were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for biological activity. In cell-based assays some of the stapled peptides showed potent anti-HIV activity comparable with that of the original octa-arginine-containing peptide (2) but with lower cytotoxicity. Fluorescent imaging experiments revealed that these stapled peptides are significantly cell permeable, and CD analysis showed they form ?-helical structures, whereas the unstapled congeners form ?-sheet structures. The application of this stapling strategy to Vpr-derived IN inhibitory peptides led to a remarkable increase in their potency in cells and a significant reduction of their cytotoxicity.

Authentic HIV-1 integrase inhibitors.

Project description:HIV-1 integrase (IN) is indispensable for HIV-1 replication and has become a validated target for developing anti-AIDS agents. In two decades of development of IN inhibition-based anti-HIV therapeutics, a significant number of compounds were identified as IN inhibitors, but only some of them showed antiviral activity. This article reviews a number of patented HIV-1 IN inhibitors, especially those that possess high selectivity for the strand transfer reaction. These compounds generally have a polar coplanar moiety, which is assumed to chelate two magnesium ions in the binding site. Resistance to those compounds, when given to patients, can develop as a result of IN mutations. We refer to those compounds as authentic IN inhibitors. Continued drug development has so far delivered one authentic IN inhibitor to the market (raltegravir in 2007). Current and future attention will be focused on the development of novel authentic IN inhibitors with the goal of overcoming viral resistance.

Probing chelation motifs in HIV integrase inhibitors.

Project description:A series of HIV integrase (HIV-1 IN) inhibitors were synthesized to evaluate the role of the metal-binding group (MBG) in this class of metalloenzyme inhibitors. A total of 21 different raltegravir-chelator derivative (RCD) compounds were prepared that differed only in the nature of the MBG. These IN strand-transfer inhibitors (INSTIs) were evaluated in vitro in cell-free enzyme activity assays, and the in vitro results were further validated in cell culture experiments. All of the active compounds showed selective inhibition of the strand-transfer reaction over 3'-processing, suggesting a common mode of action with raltegravir. The results of the in vitro activity suggest that the nature of the MBG donor atoms, the overall MBG structure, and the specific arrangement of the MBG donor atom triad are essential for obtaining maximal HIV-1 IN inhibition. At least two compounds (RCD-4, RCD-5) containing a hydroxypyrone MBG were found to display superior strand-transfer inhibition when compared to an abbreviated analogue of raltegravir (RCD-1). By isolating and examining the role of the MBG in a series of INSTIs, we have identified a scaffold (hydroxypyrones) that may provide access to a unique class of HIV-1 IN inhibitors, and may help overcome rising raltegravir resistance.

Integrase Strand Transfer Inhibitors in HIV Therapy.

Project description:HIV drug resistance has been one of the major obstacles to HIV eradication and has contributed to the need for the constant development of new antiretroviral drugs over the past 25 years. With the recent approval of dolutegravir for human therapy by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, health practitioners may soon have access to three integrase strand transfer inhibitors to treat individuals living with HIV. Here, we review the use of raltegravir, elvitegravir, and dolutegravir for use in first- and second-line HIV treatment regimens and the issue of HIV resistance against integrase inhibitors.

HIV-1 Integrase Inhibitors That Are Active against Drug-Resistant Integrase Mutants.

Project description:The currently recommended first-line therapy for HIV-1-infected patients is an integrase (IN) strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI), either dolutegravir (DTG) or bictegravir (BIC), in combination with two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs). Both DTG and BIC potently inhibit most INSTI-resistant IN mutants selected by the INSTIs raltegravir (RAL) and elvitegravir (EVG). BIC has not been reported to select for resistance in treatment-naive patients, and DTG has selected for a small number of resistant viruses in treatment-naive patients. However, some patients who had viruses with substitutions selected by RAL and EVG responded poorly when switched to DTG-based therapies, and there are mutants that cause a considerable decrease in the potencies of DTG and BIC in in vitro assays. The new INSTI cabotegravir (CAB), which is in late-stage clinical trials, has been shown to select for novel resistant mutants in vitro Thus, it is important to develop new and improved INSTIs that are effective against all the known resistant mutants. This led us to test our best inhibitors, in parallel with DTG, BIC, and CAB, in a single-round infection assay against a panel of the new CAB-resistant mutants. Of the INSTIs we tested, BIC and our compound 4d had the broadest efficacy. Both were superior to DTG, as evidenced by the data obtained with the IN mutant T66I/L74M/E138K/S147G/Q148R/S230N, which was selected by CAB using an EVG-resistant lab strain. These results support the preclinical development of compound 4d and provide information that can be used in the design of additional INSTIs that will be effective against a broad spectrum of resistant mutants.

HIV integrase inhibitors: 20-year landmark and challenges.

Project description:Since the discovery of HIV as the cause for AIDS 30 years ago, major progress has been made, including the discovery of drugs that now control the disease. Here, we review the integrase (IN) inhibitors from the discovery of the first compounds 20 years ago to the approval of two highly effective IN strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs), raltegravir (Isentress) and elvitegravir (Stribild), and the promising clinical activity of dolutegravir. After summarizing the molecular mechanism of action of the INSTIs as interfacial inhibitors, we discuss the remaining challenges. Those include: overcoming resistance to clinical INSTIs, long-term safety of INSTIs, cost of therapy, place of the INSTIs in prophylactic treatments, and the development of new classes of inhibitors (the LEDGINs) targeting IN outside its catalytic site. We also discuss the role of chromatin and host DNA repair factor for the completion of integration.

Indole-based allosteric inhibitors of HIV-1 integrase.

Project description:Employing a scaffold hopping approach, a series of allosteric HIV-1 integrase (IN) inhibitors (ALLINIs) have been synthesized based on an indole scaffold. These compounds incorporate the key elements utilized in quinoline-based ALLINIs for binding to the IN dimer interface at the principal LEDGF/p75 binding pocket. The most potent of these compounds displayed good activity in the LEDGF/p75 dependent integration assay (IC50=4.5?M) and, as predicted based on the geometry of the five- versus six-membered ring, retained activity against the A128T IN mutant that confers resistance to many quinoline-based ALLINIs.

Structural Biology of HIV Integrase Strand Transfer Inhibitors.

Project description:Integrase (IN) strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs) are recent compounds in the antiretroviral arsenal used against HIV. INSTIs work by blocking retroviral integration; an essential step in the viral lifecycle that is catalyzed by the virally encoded IN protein within a nucleoprotein assembly called an intasome. Recent structures of lentiviral intasomes from simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) and HIV have clarified the INSTI binding modes within the intasome active sites and helped elucidate an important mechanism of viral resistance. The structures provide an accurate depiction of interactions of intasomes and INSTIs to be leveraged for structure-based drug design. Here, we review these recent structural findings and contrast with earlier studies on prototype foamy virus intasomes. We also present and discuss examples of the latest chemical compounds that show promising inhibitory potential as INSTI candidates.

Variability in HIV-1 Integrase Gene and 3'-Polypurine Tract Sequences in Cameroon Clinical Isolates, and Implications for Integrase Inhibitors Efficacy.

Project description:: Integrase strand-transfer inhibitors (INSTIs) are now included in preferred first-line antiretroviral therapy (ART) for HIV-infected adults. Studies of Western clade-B HIV-1 show increased resistance to INSTIs following mutations in integrase and nef 3'polypurine tract (3'-PPT). With anticipated shifts in Africa (where 25.6-million HIV-infected people resides) to INSTIs-based ART, it is critical to monitor patients in African countries for resistance-associated mutations (RAMs) affecting INSTIs efficacy. We analyzed HIV-1 integrase and 3'-PPT sequences in 345 clinical samples from INSTIs-naïve HIV-infected Cameroonians for polymorphisms and RAMs that affect INSTIs. Phylogeny showed high genetic diversity, with the predominance of HIV-1 CRF02_AG. Major INSTIs RAMs T66A and N155K were found in two (0.6%) samples. Integrase polymorphic and accessory RAMs found included T97A, E157Q, A128T, M50I, S119R, L74M, L74I, S230N, and E138D (0.3%-23.5% of samples). Ten (3.2%) samples had both I72V+L74M, L74M+T97A, or I72V+T97A mutations; thirty-one (9.8%) had 3'-PPT mutations. The low frequency of major INSTIs RAMs shows that INSTIs-based ART can be successfully used in Cameroon. Several samples had 1 INSTIs accessory RAMs known to reduce INSTIs efficacy; thus, INSTIs-based ART would require genetic surveillance. The 3'-PPT mutations could also affect INSTIs. For patients failing INSTIs-based ART with no INSTIs RAMs, monitoring 3'-PPT sequences could reveal treatment failure etiology.
