In the present work, we described the design, synthesis and biological evaluation of a novel series of potential dual-target prodrugs targeting the HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) and nucleocapsid protein 7 (NCp7) simultaneously. Among them, the most effective compound 7c was found to inhibit HIV-1 wild-type (WT) strain at double-digit nanomolar concentration (EC50 = 42 nM) in MT-4 cells, and sub-micromole
在本工作中,我们描述了同时靶向HIV-1逆转录酶(RT)和核衣壳蛋白7(NCp7)的一系列潜在的双靶标前药的设计,合成和生物学评估。其中,发现最有效的化合物7c 在MT-4细胞中以两位数纳摩尔浓度(EC 50 = 42 nM)和亚微摩尔(EC 50 = 0.308 )抑制HIV-1野生型(WT)菌株。(μM)抑制TZM-bl细胞中的HIV-1 NL4-3株。这是对母体药物MT的重大改进。此外,它对 HIV-1 K103N / Y181C双突变株(MT-4细胞)显示出中等抑制力(EC 50 = 1.329μM)。化合物7c在人血浆中的代谢稳定性 指出它可以以线性时间独立的方式释放母体药物MT和AZT的活性形式,并证明是潜在的前药。
