  • Title: Small molecular CD4 mimics as HIV entry inhibitors.
    Author: Narumi T, Arai H, Yoshimura K, Harada S, Nomura W, Matsushita S, Tamamura H.
    Journal: Bioorg Med Chem; 2011 Nov 15; 19(22):6735-42. PubMed ID: 22014753.
    Abstract:
    Derivatives of CD4 mimics were designed and synthesized to interact with the conserved residues of the Phe43 cavity in gp120 to investigate their anti-HIV activity, cytotoxicity, and CD4 mimicry effects on conformational changes of gp120. Significant potency gains were made by installation of bulky hydrophobic groups into the piperidine moiety, resulting in discovery of a potent compound with a higher selective index and CD4 mimicry. The current study identified a novel lead compound 11 with significant anti-HIV activity and lower cytotoxicity than those of known CD4 mimics.
