There are two major classes of antiviral agents that inhibit HIV- 1 RT have been identified, nucleoside RT inhibitors （NRTIs） and non-nucleoside RT inhibitors （NNRTIs）. In this report, a noval class of non-nucleoside compound with potential RT inhibitory activity were found from the traditional Chinese medicines database （TCMD） using a combination of virtual screening, docking, molecular dynamic simulations, where results were ranked by scoring function of the docking tool. The result indicates that M4753 （a compound derived from TCMD） has not only the lowest bonding energy but also the best match in geometric conformation with the forthcoming NNRTIs. Accordingly M4753 might possibly become a promising lead compound of NNRTIs for AIDS therapy.展开更多
We have designed and synthesized a series of new phthalimidopiperazines, biological activity test show that the target compounds(Ic, Ie, ii) can inhibit HIV-I RT with IC50 20.0, 43.8, and 63.7 mu M, respectively.

Data on liver injury in human immunodeficiency virus-1-infected patients receiving antiretroviral therapy are limited in China. The purpose of this study was to investigate the features of liver injury in human immunodeficiency virus type 1-infected patients receiving non-nucleosides reverse transcriptase inhibitors-based antiretroviral therapy in China.Methods Seventy-five patients on antiretroviral therapy containing non-nucleosides reverse transcriptase inhibitors were retrospectively studied. The patients were divided into 2 groups： group 1 （with liver injury, n=45） and group 2（without liver injury, n=30）. The features of liver injury were analyzed. The sex, age, baseline CD4 counts, hepatitis B virus （HBV） and/or hepatitis C virus （HCV） co-infection, hepatotoxic drug use and nevirapine or efavirenz use were compared between two groups.Results Forty-five patients （60.0%）, 31 （68.9%） males and 14 （31.1%） females, aged 12 to 52 years （averaged （3g±9）years）, experienced at least one episode of liver injury. Forty （53.3%） patients were co-infected with HBV and/or HCV, 42 （56%） patients had concomitant use of antituberculosis drugs or cotrimoxazole, 46 （61.3%） and 29 （38.7%） patients received regimen containing nevirapine and efavirenz, respectively. Grade 1 liver injuries were observed in 26 （57.8%）patients, grade 2 in 16 （35.6%）, grade 3 in 2 （4.0%） and grade 4 in 1 （2.2%）. Three （6.7%） patients discontinued highly active antiretroviral therapy （HAART） due to liver injury. In group 1, there were 29 （64.4%） patients co-infected with HBV and/or HCV, 32 （71.1%） patients received regimen containing nevirapine, and 30 （66.7%） patients had concomitant use of anti-tuberculosis drugs or cotrimoxazole, respectively, significantly higher than those in group 2 （11 （36.7%）, 14 （46.7%）and 12 （40%）, respectively; P=0.018, 0.033, 0.023, respectively）. The sex, age, baseline CD4 counts and disease stage were not factors associated with liver injury.Conclusions Liver injury associated with HAART containing non-nucleosides reverse transcriptase inhibitors was mild to moderate and those who were co-infected with HBV and/or HCV, had concomitant use of antituberculosis drugs or cotrimoxazole and received a regimen containing nevirapine were prone to liver injury while receiving HAART.展开更多
