Genetic Engineering Methods in Primary T Cells
Primary T cells can be engineered to confer them with novel therapeutic functions, allowing them to treat a variety of conditions. Genetic engineering can be either stable or transient, aiming to either express or inhibit a target gene. This review discusses the various genetic engineering tools available as well as their characteristics and ...

Urinary eicosanoid metabolites in HIV-infected women with central obesity switching to raltegravir: an analysis from the women, integrase, and fat accumulation trial. [PDF]
Chronic inflammation is a hallmark of HIV infection. Eicosanoids reflect inflammation, oxidant stress, and vascular health and vary by sex and metabolic parameters. Raltegravir (RAL) is an HIV-1 integrase inhibitor that may have limited metabolic effects.

In SETD2‐mutant ccRCC, the original LEDGF recognition of the H3K36me3 regulatory axis no longer exists. LEDGF interacts with CARM1‐dependent H3R17me2a regulating the transcription of key enzymes in the de novo synthesis pathway. The abnormally elevated LEDGF leads to the accumulation of purine nucleotides in SETD2‐mutant ccRCC, thereby satisfying the ...

Comparative antiviral activity of integrase inhibitors in human monocyte-derived macrophages and lymphocytes [PDF]
The activity of raltegravir and 4 other integrase inhibitors (MK-2048, L870,810, IN2, and IN5) was investigated in primary human macrophages, PBMC and C8166-lymphocytic T cells, in order to determine their relative potency and efficacy in different ...

Probing chelation motifs in HIV integrase inhibitors [PDF]
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.

Background In resource-limited settings, multi-experienced HIV infected patients are often prescribed raltegravir for salvage therapy. Patients failing raltegravir-containing regimens require other drugs including other integrase inhibitors.

Approaches to repurposing reverse transcriptase antivirals in cancer
This review highlights the role of reverse transcriptase (RT) inhibition in cellular regulation associated with non‐terminal repeat retrotransposons and endogenous retroviruses. Based on their pleiotropic characteristics, RT inhibitors (RTIs) are discussed as potential anticancer agents.

Resistance to inhibitors of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 integration
This review will summarize the role of integrase in HIV-1 infection, the mechanism of integrase inhibitors and resistance with an emphasis on raltegravir (RAL), the first integrase inhibitor licensed to treat HIV-1 infection.

Effectiveness of dolutegravir-based regimens as either first-line or switch antiretroviral therapy: data from the Icona cohort [PDF]
Introduction: Concerns about dolutegravir (DTG) tolerability in the real-life setting have recently arisen. We aimed to estimate the risk of treatment discontinuation and virological failure of DTG-based regimens from a large cohort of HIV-infected ...
