Six serinal derivatives were synthesized and tested for their anti-human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) activity against HIV-1-infected cells. Of the 6 serinal derivatives tested, only N,O-didecanoyl serinal dimethylacetal (DDSD) was found to strongly suppress progeny virus production from acute HIV-1-infected CEM cells, while not suppressing the HIV-1 p24 production from latent HIV-1-infected ACH-2 cells after stimulation with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. DDSD also inhibited the synthesis of HIV-1 proviral DNA at 20-50 microM, not only 1 h but also 24 h after HIV-1 infection. Taken together, DDSD is a potent inhibitor of HIV-1 production, and may become a unique leading compound for chemotherapy of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D011533 Proviruses Duplex DNA sequences in eukaryotic chromosomes, corresponding to the genome of a virus, that are transmitted from one cell generation to the next without causing lysis of the host. Proviruses are often associated with neoplastic cell transformation and are key features of retrovirus biology. Provirus

D000080 Acetals Diethers with the structure -C(OR'')(OR'''), where R'' and R''' are not hydrogen. Mixed acetals have R'' and R''' groups which differ. Acetal
D012694 Serine A non-essential amino acid occurring in natural form as the L-isomer. It is synthesized from GLYCINE or THREONINE. It is involved in the biosynthesis of PURINES; PYRIMIDINES; and other amino acids. L-Serine,L Serine
D013601 T-Lymphocytes Lymphocytes responsible for cell-mediated immunity. Two types have been identified - cytotoxic (T-LYMPHOCYTES, CYTOTOXIC) and helper T-lymphocytes (T-LYMPHOCYTES, HELPER-INDUCER). They are formed when lymphocytes circulate through the THYMUS GLAND and differentiate to thymocytes. When exposed to an antigen, they divide rapidly and produce large numbers of new T cells sensitized to that antigen.
