Q

Protease inhibitors (PI)

A

inhibit the post-translational, final activation step of viral polyproteins as the nascent viral particles are released
high genetic barrier

42
Q

fusion inhibitors (aka entry inhibitors) (FI)

A

block attachment and/or entry of the viral particle to cell

43
Q

CCR5 co-receptor Antagonists (CCR5I)

A

block attachment of certain strains of HIV to the R5 co-receptor & thus prevent entry & infection

44
Q

HIV integrase strand transfer inhibitors (ISTI)

inhibit the transfer & integration of the viral DNA into host cell DNA in the genome of infected cells
inhibit HIV-1 integrase
low genetic barrier

45
Q

many toxicities of NRTIs relate to

A

inhibition of mitochondriald DNA

46
Q

black box warning for NRTIs

A

lactic acidosis & liver damage

47
Q

NRTIs vs NNRTIs

A

both have good oral bioavailabilty
half-life: NNRTI>NRTI

NRTI mostly tenal

48
Q

what NNRTIs are both inhibitors & inducers of P450?

A

Efavirenz & nevirapine

49
Q

inhibition

A

drug directly interacting with a molecule of p450 (direct interaction)

50
Q

induction

A

totally different process; binds to a nuclear receptor & travels to the nucleus of the cell & changes gene expression so that more of a particular p450 is made (change in gene expression)

51
Q

with PIs, viral particles are released, but

A

they are not mature and infectious

52
Q

HIV-1 protease is an

A

aspartyle protease

PIs cleave between PHE and PRO

Q

ritonavir is a PI drug with special uses as a

pharmacoenhancer or booster- given in combo
inhibits CYP3A4 so inhibits other HIV drug metabolism
inhibit PGP efflux sytsem

54
Q

fusion inhibitors-enfuvirtide MOA

A

binds to hydrophobic groove in GP41 & prevents membrane fusion
active on HIV-1 only!!
