RNA interference approaches for treatment of HIV-1 infection. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
HIV/AIDS is a chronic and debilitating disease that cannot be cured with current antiretroviral drugs. While combinatorial antiretroviral therapy (cART) can potently suppress HIV-1 replication and delay the onset of AIDS, viral mutagenesis often leads to

G-quadruplexes and G-quadruplex ligands: targets and tools in antiviral therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
G-quadruplexes (G4s) are non-canonical nucleic acids secondary structures that form within guanine-rich strands of regulatory genomic regions. G4s have been extensively described in the human genome, especially in telomeres and oncogene promoters; in ...

Design, synthesis, molecular dynamics studies and biological evaluations of 4-hydroxy-5-pyrrolinone-3-carbohydrazides as HIV-1 integrase inhibitors

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Medicinal Chemistry Reports
Acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) diseases despite the efficacy of anti-HIV therapy, remain one of the human's most serious problems. Hence, the introduction of novel anti-HIV agents as first-line therapy is still required. HIV integrase lacking

Dendrimers as Potential Therapeutic Tools in HIV Inhibition

open access: yesMolecules, 2013
The present treatments for HIV transfection include chemical agents and gene therapies. Although many chemical drugs, peptides and genes have been developed for HIV inhibition, a variety of non-ignorable drawbacks limited the efficiency of these ...

An expert consensus for the management of chronic hepatitis B in Asian Americans. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BACKGROUND: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is common with major clinical consequences. In Asian Americans, the HBsAg carrier rate ranges from 2% to 16% which approximates the rates from their countries of origin.

Induction maintenance concept for HAART as initial treatment in HIV infected infants

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Medical Research, 2011
Background Early initiated antiretroviral therapy (ART) in HIV infected infants leads to improved long-term viral suppression and survival. Guidelines recommend initiating therapy with a triple ART consisting of two nucleoside reverse transcriptase ...

Electrochemistry of anti-HIV agents

open access: yesElectrochemistry Communications, 2000
Square wave voltammetry has been used to study the electrochemical behaviour of anti-HIV drugs in aqueous solutions. The oxidation reaction of Carbovir (1) at a Pt microelectrode occurs at 1.12 V versus SCE and the peak current is proportional to the concentration. An electroanalytical technique for the determination of trace concentrations of Carbovir

Combinations of isoform-targeted histone deacetylase inhibitors and bryostatin analogues display remarkable potency to activate latent HIV without global T-cell activation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Current antiretroviral therapy (ART) for HIV/AIDS slows disease progression by reducing viral loads and increasing CD4 counts. Yet ART is not curative due to the persistence of CD4+ T-cell proviral reservoirs that chronically resupply active virus ...

Identifying transcription factors controlling the basal expression of human MRP4 highlights a substantial role for Sp1

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The MRP4 transporter exports several drugs and signaling molecules. Here, we identified key promoter elements regulating basal MRP4 expression. Using reporter assays, we defined a conserved region with essential Sp1 and contributory Ets sites, which controlled basal MRP4 expression.

Targeting the PI3K/Akt cell survival pathway to induce cell death of HIV-1 infected macrophages with alkylphospholipid compounds. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
HIV-1 infected macrophages and microglia are long-lived viral reservoirs persistently producing viral progenies. HIV-1 infection extends the life span of macrophages by promoting the stress-induced activation of the PI3K/Akt cell survival pathway ...
