Abstract
Entry inhibitors are a class of antiretroviral (ARV) drugs that prevent HIV replication by blocking viral entry into the host cell. The investigation of naturally occurring mutations associated with entry inhibitors across subtypes is required because genetic differences between HIV-1 variants may influence the emergence of drug resistance. Despite the importance of subtype C, which predominates globally, the majority of studies include only subtype B strains. To investigate the presence of natural resistance mutations to entry inhibitors in HIV-1 subtypes B, C, and CRF31_BC strains. Eighty samples were collected from antiretroviral-naïve patients. The gp41 gene from 67 patients and the gp120 gene from 65 patients were partially sequenced. Resistance mutations to entry inhibitors Enfuvirtide, Maraviroc, and Vicriviroc were screened. ENF resistance-associated mutations of HR1 and HR2 on gp41 were not associated with any subtype. However, the major polymorphisms detected in HR1: N42S, L54M, and A67T were most prevalent in subtype C (p<0.001). Mutations A316T and R315Q in gp120, which are related to MVC and VCV reduced susceptibility respectively, were predominant in subtype C (p<0.05). This study shows that many more resistance-a...Continue Reading
