CCR5 and HIV Infection

Receptors and Channels, 2002
Chemokines and chemokine receptors play a crucial role in the trafficking of leukocyte populations across the body, and are involved in the development of a large variety of human diseases. CCR5 is the main coreceptor used by macrophage (M)-tropic strains of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and HIV-2, which are responsible for viral ...

The chemokine receptor, CCR5

The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 2004
The chemokine receptor, CCR5, is a G protein coupled receptor responsible for some of the effects of the chemokines CCL3, CCL4 and CCL5. It is also one of the co-receptors for the entry of human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) into cells. Regulation of CCR5 number on cells is, therefore, important for determining the infection rate by HIV-1.

Spiropiperidine CCR5 antagonists

Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2009
A novel series of CCR5 antagonists has been identified, utilizing leads from high-throughput screening which were further modified based on insights from competitor molecules. Lead optimization was pursued by balancing opposing trends of metabolic stability and potency. Selective and potent analogs with good pharmacokinetic properties were successfully

Lymphocyte adhesion to CCR5 ligands is reduced by anti-CCR5 gene delivery

Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2011
Immune-mediated damage to the central nervous system (CNS) is an important contributor to many CNS diseases, including epilepsy. Chemokines play a role in leukocyte recruitment to, and migration across, the blood-brain barrier (BBB) during many such processes. We previously investigated the role of the chemokine receptor CCR5 in a rat model of epilepsy

Maraviroc: A Ccr5 Antagonist [PDF]

open access: possibleFuture HIV Therapy, 2008
HIV requires binding to both the CD4 molecule and a coreceptor to enable entry into the cell. CCR5 is a chemokine receptor that is utilized as a coreceptor by the majority of virus in early asymptomatic HIV infection. Maraviroc is a novel small molecule CCR5 antagonist which, in Phase IIb/III clinical trials up to 48 weeks, has been shown to be ...

CCR5 and inflammatory storm

Ageing Research Reviews
Chemokines and their corresponding receptors play crucial roles in orchestrating inflammatory and immune responses, particularly in the context of pathological conditions disrupting the internal environment. Among these receptors, CCR5 has garnered considerable attention due to its significant involvement in the inflammatory cascade, serving as a ...

Middle management of CCR5

Nature Reviews Immunology, 2019
Levels of CCR5 expression by CD4+ T cells, which influence the outcome of HIV-1 infection, are modulated by polymorphism of a non-coding RNA that affects mRNA stability.

Resistance to CCR5 antagonists

Current Opinion in HIV and AIDS, 2007
CCR5 antagonists disrupt crucial interactions between HIV envelope glycoprotein gp120 and CCR5, preventing virus binding and entry. Current antiretroviral agents target viral proteins, whereas CCR5 antagonists bind to the host cell. This novel mechanism of action is posing new challenges to our understanding of drug resistance.Possible mechanisms of ...

Structure prediction of the protein ccr5 delta 32 and structure comparison with ccr5 [PDF]

open access: possibleInternational Journal of Pharma and Bio Sciences, 2016
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is an obligate intracellular parasite of the CD4 + T-cells. This virus targets and kills helper T cells that play a vital role in immune response. Studies have shown that the interaction between the viral glycoprotein and host proteins like CD4 and Chemokine receptor type 5 (CCR5) enable the virus to get into the ...
