Cell disposition of raltegravir and newer antiretrovirals in HIV-infected patients: high inter-individual variability in raltegravir cellular penetration [PDF]
Objectives The site of pharmacological activity of raltegravir is intracellular. Our aim was to determine the extent of raltegravir cellular penetration and whether raltegravir total plasma concentration (Ctot) predicts cellular concentration (Ccell ...

Longitudinal sequencing of HIV-1 infected patients with low-level viremia for years while on ART shows no indications for genetic evolution of the virus [PDF]
HIV-infected patients on antiretroviral therapy (ART) may present low-level viremia (LLV) above the detection level of current viral load assays.

Marked increase in etravirine and saquinavir plasma concentrations during atovaquone/proguanil prophylaxis [PDF]
The case of a 32-year-old Caucasian female with multi-drug resistant HIV-1 subtype B infection treated with a salvage regimen including maraviroc, raltegravir, etravirine and unboosted saquinavir who started atovaquone/proguanil prophylaxis, is reported.

HIV/HCV-coinfection: which role can new antiretrovirals such as integrase inhibitors play?
End-stage liver disease has become one of the most frequent causes of death in HIV/HCV-coinfected patients. The role of new antiretrovirals in the progression of liver fibrosis has yet to be defined.

Quantitative PCR used to Assess HIV-1 Integration and 2-LTR Circle Formation in Human Macrophages, Peripheral Blood Lymphocytes and a CD4+ Cell Line [PDF]
Background Integration is an intermediate step in the HIV life cycle and is defined as the insertion of HIV-1 proviral DNA into the host chromosome. If integration does not occur when HIV-1 cDNA enters the nucleus, it circularizes upon itself

A Review on Medicinal Chemistry and Biological Activity of Dihydropyrimidinones Against HIV
This article presents the latest advances in the development of dihydropyrimidinone (DHPM) derivatives as promising candidates against HIV. By exploring their interactions with essential viral targets and highlighting innovative compounds with potent antiviral activity, we provide an updated perspective on the opportunities for new antiretroviral ...
