9 Jan 2003
Abstract excerpt
Naphthyridine 7 inhibits the strand transfer of the integration process catalyzed by integrase with an IC50 of 10 nM and inhibits 95% of the spread of HIV-1 infection in cell culture at 0.39 microM. It does not exhibit cytotoxicity in cell culture at < or =12.5 microM and shows a good pharmacokinetic profile when dosed orally to rats. The antiviral activity of 7 and its effect on integration were confirmed using...
