Abstract
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) causes one of the most dangerous diseases-acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). An estimated about 40 million people are currently living with HIV worldwide, most of whom are already on antiretroviral therapy. This makes the development of effective drugs to combat this virus very relevant. Currently, one of the dynamically developing areas of organic and medicinal chemistry is the synthesis and identification of new compounds capable of inhibiting HIV-1 integrase-one of the HIV enzymes. A significant number of studies on this topic are published annually. Many compounds inhibiting integrase incorporate pyridine core. Therefore, this review is an analysis of the literature on the methods for the synthesis of pyridine-containing HIV-1 integrase inhibitors since 2003 to the present.

Abstract
Between 10 and 20 million people worldwide are infected with the human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1). Despite causing life-threatening pathologies there is no therapeutic regimen for this deltaretrovirus. Here, we screened a library of integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI) candidates built around several chemical scaffolds to determine their effectiveness in limiting HTLV-1 infection. Naphthyridines with substituents in position 6 emerged as the most potent compounds against HTLV-1, with XZ450 having highest efficacy in vitro. Using single-particle cryo-electron microscopy we visualised XZ450 as well as the clinical HIV-1 INSTIs raltegravir and bictegravir bound to the active site of the deltaretroviral intasome. The structures reveal subtle differences in the coordination environment of the Mg2+ ion pair involved in the interaction with the INSTIs. Our results elucidate the binding of INSTIs to the HTLV-1 intasome and support their use for pre-exposure prophylaxis and possibly future treatment of HTLV-1 infection.

Integrase strand transfer inhibitors
(INSTIs) block the integration
step of the retroviral lifecycle and are first-line drugs used for
the treatment of HIV-1/AIDS. INSTIs have a polycyclic core with heteroatom
triads, chelate the metal ions at the active site, and have a halobenzyl
group that interacts with viral DNA attached to the core by a flexible
linker. The most broadly effective INSTIs inhibit both wild-type (WT)
integrase (IN) and a variety of well-known mutants. However, because
there are mutations that reduce the potency of all of the available
INSTIs, new and better compounds are needed. Models based on recent
structures of HIV-1 and red-capped mangabey SIV INs suggest modifications
in the INSTI structures that could enhance interactions with the 3′-terminal
adenosine of the viral DNA, which could improve performance against
INSTI resistant mutants. We designed and tested a series of INSTIs
having modifications to their naphthyridine scaffold. One of the new
compounds retained good potency against an expanded panel of HIV-1
IN mutants that we tested. Our results suggest the possibility of
designing inhibitors that combine the best features of the existing
compounds, which could provide additional efficacy against known HIV-1
IN mutants.

Abstract
Introduction:
Integrase is a validated drug target for anti-HIV-1 therapy. The second
generation integrase inhibitors display π-stacking interaction ability with 3’-end nucleotide as a
streamlined metal chelating pharmacophore.
Method:
In this study, we introduced benzoxazin-3-one scaffold for integrase inhibitory potential
as bioisostere replacement strategy of 2-benzoxazolinone.
Results:
Molecular modeling studies revealed that amide functionality alongside oxadiazole heteroatoms
and sulfur in the second position of oxadiazole ring could mimic the metal chelating
pharmacophore. The halobenzyl ring occupies hydrophobic site created by the cytidylate nucleotide
(DC-16).
Conclusion:
The most potent and selective compound displayed 110 μM IC50 with a selectivity
index of more than 2.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although major efforts have been devoted to the effective treatment of HIV-1 infection, it has remained one of the leading causes of deaths around the world. So, development of anti-HIV-1 agents featuring novel structure is essential. OBJECTIVE To synthesize novel quinazolinone derivatives and evaluate their anti-HIV-1 activity. METHOD In this study, we designed and synthesized a series of novel 2,3-diaryl-4-quinazolinone derivatives using a one-pot multicomponent reaction. Then, the resulting derivatives were evaluated for anti-HIV-1 activity using Hela cell-based single-cycle replication assay. RESULTS Most of the compounds showed efficacy against HIV-1 replication and the compound 9c exhibited the highest activity with EC50 value of 37 μM. Docking studies indicated that synthesized compounds can interact with the key residues of the HIV-1 integrase active site. Binding of the most active compound was consistent with the HIV-1 integrase inhibitors. CONCLUSION Based on our results, these derivatives represent novel lead compounds for the development of new promising anti-HIV-1 agents.

Abstract
Integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs) are important components of drug formulations that are used to treat people living with HIV, and second-generation INSTIs dolutegravir and bictegravir impart high barriers to the development of drug resistance. Reported 10 years ago, X-ray crystal structures of prototype foamy virus (PFV) intasome complexes explained how INSTIs bind integrase to inhibit strand transfer activity and provided initial glimpses into mechanisms of drug resistance. However, comparatively low sequence identity between PFV and HIV-1 integrases limited the depth of information that could be gleaned from the surrogate model system. Recent high-resolution structures of HIV-1 intasomes as well as intasomes from a closely related strain of simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV), which were determined using single-particle cryogenic electron microscopy, have overcome this limitation. The new structures reveal the binding modes of several advanced INSTI compounds to the HIV/SIV integrase active site and critically inform the structural basis of drug resistance. These findings will help guide the continued development of this important class of antiretroviral therapeutics.

Abstract
Although a relatively wide range of therapeutic options is currently available for the treatment of HIV/AIDS, it is still among the most serious and virulent diseases and is associated with a high mortality rate. Integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs), e.g., FDA-approved dolutegravir (DTG), bictegravir (BIC) and cabotegravir (CAB), have recently been included in standard highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) schemes as one of the five major components responsible for the most beneficial clinical outcome. In this paper, we describe a combinatorial amide synthesis, biological evaluation and in silico modeling of new INSTIs containing heteroaromatic bioisosteric substitution instead of the well-studied halogen-substituted benzyl fragment. With the focus on the mentioned diversity point, a medium-sized library of compounds was selected for synthesis. A biological study revealed that many molecules were highly active INSTIs (EC50 < 10 nM). Two compounds 1{4} and 1{26} demonstrated picomolar antiviral activity that was comparable with CAB and were more active than DTG and BIC. Molecular docking study was performed to evaluate the binding mode of compounds in the active site of HIV-1 IN. In rats, lead compound 1{26} showed two-fold greater bioavailability than CAB and had a similar half-life. Compound 1{26} and its sodium salt were considerably more soluble in water than the parent drugs. Both molecules were very stable in human liver microsomes and plasma, demonstrated high affinity towards plasma proteins and did not show cytochrome (CYP) inhibition. This benefit profile indicates the great potential of these molecules as attractive candidates for subsequent evaluation as oral long-acting drugs and long-acting nanosuspension formulations for intramuscular injection.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has been widely adopted to control the HIV-1 infection successfully. HIV-1 integrase (IN) inhibitors are primary drugs in HAART regimens targeting integration step in the HIV-1 life cycle. However, due to the emergence of viral resistance and cross-resistance amongst drugs, there is a pressing need for new and potent IN inhibitors. This review covers the three patents describing spirocyclic and phosphate substituted quinolizine derivatives as novel HIV-1 IN inhibitors for the discovery of new anti-HIV-1 drug candidates. Areas covered: This review is focused on spirocyclic and phosphate substituted quinolizine derivatives bearing the same metal chelation scaffold as novel HIV-1 IN inhibitors. Expert opinion: Generally, privileged structure-based optimizations have emerged as an effective approach to discover newly antiviral agents. More generally, due to the similar Mg2+ catalytic active centers of endoribonucleases, some divalent metal ion chelators were found to be versatile binders targeting multiple metalloenzymes. Therefore, privileged structure-based scaffold re-evolution is an important tactic to identify new chemotypes, to explore unknown biological activities, or to provide effective ligands for multiple targets by modifying the existing active compounds.
