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.

Three main mutational pathways in HIV-2 lead to high-level raltegravir and elvitegravir resistance: implications for emerging HIV-2 treatment regimens. [PDF]
Human immunodeficiency virus type 2 (HIV-2) is intrinsically resistant to non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors and exhibits reduced susceptibility to several of the protease inhibitors used for antiretroviral therapy of HIV-1. Thus, there is a

Long-acting formulation of the integrase inhibitor cabotegravir (CAB LA) is in clinical development for HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). Here, using a SHIV macaque model, the authors show emergence of integrase mutations associated to CAB LA PrEP ...

Comparative biochemical analysis of HIV-1 subtype B and C integrase enzymes
Background Integrase inhibitors are currently being incorporated into highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). Due to high HIV variability, integrase inhibitor efficacy must be evaluated against a range of integrase enzymes from different subtypes ...

Multimodal Functionalities of HIV-1 Integrase
Integrase is the retroviral protein responsible for integrating reverse transcripts into cellular genomes. Co-packaged with viral RNA and reverse transcriptase into capsid-encased viral cores, human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) integrase has long ...

Case report: Emergence of dolutegravir resistance in a patient on second-line antiretroviral therapy
Introduction: The integrase strand transfer inhibitor dolutegravir (DTG) has a high genetic barrier to resistance. Only rare cases of resistance to DTG have been reported when it is used as a component of antiretroviral therapy regimens in treatment ...

HIV-2 integrase variation in integrase inhibitor-naïve adults in Senegal, West Africa. [PDF]
Antiretroviral therapy for HIV-2 infection is hampered by intrinsic resistance to many of the drugs used to treat HIV-1. Limited studies suggest that the integrase inhibitors (INIs) raltegravir and elvitegravir have potent activity against HIV-2 in ...

Lipid abnormality correction by integrase inhibitor among children taking ARt
Goal. To estimate a possibility of correction laboratory abnormalities (increased level of cholesterol and/or triglycerides at blood of HIV-positive children) by switch the boosted PI on HIV integrase inhibitor (Raltegravir). Methods.
