Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Current drugs against HIV-1 inhibit the function of viral enzymes, namely, RT, integrase, and protease. While these are especially proving useful in combination therapy, drug resistance could still be generated. Therefore, future directions towards a more effective therapy for HIV-1 infection will rely on the development of novel therapeutic strategies rather than conventional strategies, which target only viral proteins. HIV-1 exploits multiple host proteins during infection, suggesting that the possibility of interrupting virus-host interactions may be an important pathway for the development of antiviral therapies. In concept, this type of antiviral agent developed through this pathway could minimize the generation of drug-resistant mutants because the virus must maintain the ability to interact with the relatively immutable host proteins. Thus, the interaction between the host and viral proteins may offer some potential applications for therapies against HIV-1.
