Resistance to Integrase Inhibitors [PDF]
Integrase (IN) is a clinically validated target for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus infections and raltegravir exhibits remarkable clinical activity. The next most advanced IN inhibitor is elvitegravir.

Two cases of possible transmitted HIV drug resistance to all currently available integrase inhibitors, the Netherlands, 2025 [PDF]
Transmitted integrase inhibitor resistance in newly diagnosed HIV remains rare. We report two cases with baseline resistance to all currently available integrase inhibitors in the Netherlands in 2025.

Weight gain and integrase inhibitors. [PDF]
Purpose of review Weight gain and obesity among people living with HIV (PLWH) is a serious problem that occurs often after initiation of antiretroviral therapy but may be worse with integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs).

Retrovirus-based pseudotyped virus neutralisation assays overestimate neutralising activity in sera from participants receiving integrase inhibitors [PDF]
Retroviral pseudotype-based virus neutralisation assays are widely used to estimate functional immunity, but may be unsuitable for testing human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected individuals receiving integrase inhibitor treatment. We evaluated these

Structural Studies of the HIV-1 Integrase Protein: Compound Screening and Characterization of a DNA-Binding Inhibitor. [PDF]
Understanding the HIV integrase protein and mechanisms of resistance to HIV integrase inhibitors is complicated by the lack of a full length HIV integrase crystal structure. Moreover, a lentiviral integrase structure with co-crystallised DNA has not been

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 ...

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 ...

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.

Small molecule inhibitors of the LEDGF site of human immunodeficiency virus integrase identified by fragment screening and structure based design. [PDF]
A fragment-based screen against human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV) integrase led to a number of compounds that bound to the lens epithelium derived growth factor (LEDGF) binding site of the integrase catalytic core domain.
