Life cycle synchronization is a viral drug resistance mechanism. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2018
Viral infections are one of the major causes of death worldwide, with HIV infection alone resulting in over 1.2 million casualties per year. Antiviral drugs are now being administered for a variety of viral infections, including HIV, hepatitis B and C ...

Conquering viral drug resistance: Structural and mechanistic paradigms for antiresistance drug design

open access: yesPharmaceutical Science Advances
Viral drug resistance remains a critical challenge in antiviral therapy. This perspective highlights five studies on severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), monkeypox virus (MPXV ...

Improving Viral Protease Inhibitors to Counter Drug Resistance [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Microbiology, 2016
Drug resistance is a major problem in health care, undermining therapy outcomes and necessitating novel approaches to drug design. Extensive studies on resistance to viral protease inhibitors, particularly those of HIV-1 and hepatitis C virus (HCV) protease, revealed a plethora of information on the structural and molecular mechanisms underlying ...

Viral Rebound Occurrence Immediately after Drug Discontinuation Involving Neither Drug Resistance Nor Latent Reservoir

open access: yesJournal of Theoretical Biology, 2023
AbstractSome viruses exhibit "rebound" when the administration of antiviral drugs is discontinued. Viral rebound caused by resistance mutations or latent reservoirs has been studied mathematically. In this study, we investigated the viral rebound due to other causes.

Hepatitis C virus cell-cell transmission and resistance to direct-acting antiviral agents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is transmitted between hepatocytes via classical cell entry but also uses direct cell-cell transfer to infect neighboring hepatocytes.

Reviewing HIV-1 Gag Mutations in Protease Inhibitors Resistance: Insights for Possible Novel Gag Inhibitor Designs

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
HIV protease inhibitors against the viral protease are often hampered by drug resistance mutations in protease and in the viral substrate Gag. To overcome this drug resistance and inhibit viral maturation, targeting Gag alongside protease rather than ...

Lack of Detection of Xenotropic Murine Leukemia Virus-Related Virus in HIV-1 Lymphoma Patients

open access: yesAdvances in Virology, 2011
Xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related virus (XMRV) is a gammaretrovirus reported to be associated with human prostate cancer and chronic fatigue syndrome. Since retroviruses cause various cancers, and XMRV replication might be facilitated by HIV-1 co-

Quantifying the fitness cost of HIV-1 drug resistance mutations through phylodynamics. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2018
Drug resistant HIV is a major threat to the long-term efficacy of antiretroviral treatment. Around 10% of ART-naïve patients in Europe are infected with drug-resistant HIV type 1.

Combined Treatment with Host-Directed and Anticytomegaloviral Kinase Inhibitors: Mechanisms, Synergisms and Drug Resistance Barriers

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2023
Despite the availability of currently approved antiviral drugs, infections with human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) still cause clinically challenging, sometimes life-threatening situations.
