Abstract
The HIV-1 entry inhibitor temsavir prevents CD4 from interacting with the envelope glycoprotein (Env) and blocks its conformational changes. To do this temsavir relies on the presence of a residue with small side chain at position 375 in Env and is unable to neutralize viral strains like CRF01_AE carrying His375. Here we investigate the mechanism of temsavir-resistance and show that residue 375 is not the sole determinant of resistance. At least six additional residues within the gp120 inner domain layers, including five distant from the drug-binding pocket, contribute to resistance. A detailed structure-function analysis using engineered viruses and soluble trimer variants reveal that the molecular basis of resistance is mediated by crosstalk between His375 and the inner domain layers. Furthermore, our data confirm that temsavir can adjust its binding mode to accommodate changes in Env conformation, a property that likely contributes to its broad-antiviral activity.

Enhancing HIV-1 Neutralization by Increasing the Local Concentration of Membrane-Proximal External Region-Directed Broadly Neutralizing Antibodies. J Virol 2023; 97:e0164722.

Abstract
Broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) against the membrane-proximal external region (MPER) of the gp41 component of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) envelope (Env) are characterized by long, hydrophobic, heavy chain complementarity-determining region 3s (HCDR3s) that interact with the MPER and some viral membrane lipids to achieve increased local concentrations. Here, we show that increasing the local concentration of MPER-directed bNAbs at the cell surface via binding to the high-affinity Fc receptor FcγRI potentiates their ability to prevent viral entry in a manner analogous to the previously reported observation wherein the lipid-binding activity of MPER bNAbs increases their concentration at the viral surface membrane. However, binding of MPER-directed bNAb 10E8 to FcγRI abolishes the neutralization synergy that is seen with the N-heptad repeat (NHR)-targeting antibody D5_AR and NHR-targeting small molecule enfuvirtide (T20), possibly due to decreased accessibility of the NHR in the FcγRI-10E8-MPER complex. Taken together, our results suggest that lipid-binding activity and FcγRI-mediated potentiation function in concert to improve the potency of MPER-directed bNAbs by increasing their local concentration near the site of viral fusion. Therefore, lipid binding may not be a strict requirement for potent neutralization by MPER-targeting bNAbs, as alternative methods can achieve similar increases in local concentrations while avoiding potential liabilities associated with immunologic host tolerance. IMPORTANCE The trimeric glycoprotein Env, the only viral protein expressed on the surface of HIV-1, is the target of broadly neutralizing antibodies and the focus of most vaccine development efforts. Broadly neutralizing antibodies targeting the membrane proximal external region (MPER) of Env show lipid-binding characteristics, and modulating this interaction affects neutralization. In this study, we tested the neutralization potencies of variants of the MPER-targeting antibody 10E8 with different viral-membrane-binding and host FcγRI-binding capabilities. Our results suggest that binding to both lipid and FcγRI improves the neutralization potency of MPER-directed antibodies by concentrating the antibodies at sites of viral fusion. As such, lipid binding may not be uniquely required for MPER-targeting broadly neutralizing antibodies, as alternative methods to increase local concentration can achieve similar improvements in potency.

Development of an efficient reproducible cell-cell transmission assay for rapid quantification of SARS-CoV-2 spike interaction with hACE2. CELL REPORTS METHODS 2022; 2:100252. [PMID: 35757815 PMCID: PMC9213030 DOI: 10.1016/j.crmeth.2022.100252] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2022] [Revised: 04/28/2022] [Accepted: 06/14/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Efficient quantitative assays for measurement of viral replication and infectivity are indispensable for future endeavors to develop prophylactic or therapeutic antiviral drugs or vaccines against SARS-CoV-2. We developed a SARS-CoV-2 cell-cell transmission assay that provides a rapid and quantitative readout to assess SARS-CoV-2 spike hACE2 interaction in the absence of pseudotyped particles or live virus. We established two well-behaved stable cell lines, which demonstrated a remarkable correlation with standard cell-free viral pseudotyping for inhibition by convalescent sera, small-molecule drugs, and murine anti-spike monoclonal antibodies. The assay is rapid, reliable, and highly reproducible, without a requirement for any specialized research reagents or laboratory equipment and should be easy to adapt for use in most investigative and clinical settings. It can be effectively used or modified for high-throughput screening for compounds and biologics that interfere with virus-cell binding and entry to complement other neutralization assays currently in use.

Temsavir Treatment of HIV-1-Infected Cells Decreases Envelope Glycoprotein Recognition by Broadly Neutralizing Antibodies. mBio 2022; 13:e0057722.

Abstract
The heavily glycosylated HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein (Env) is the sole viral antigen present at the surface of virions and infected cells, representing the main target for antibody responses. The FDA-approved small molecule temsavir acts as an HIV-1 attachment inhibitor by preventing Env-CD4 interaction. This molecule also stabilizes Env in a prefusion "closed" conformation that is preferentially targeted by several broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs). A recent study showed that an analog of temsavir (BMS-377806) affects the cleavage and addition of complex glycans on Env. In this study, we investigated the impact of temsavir on the overall glycosylation, proteolytic cleavage, cell surface expression, and antigenicity of Env. We found that temsavir impacts Env glycosylation and processing at physiological concentrations. This significantly alters the capacity of several bNAbs to recognize Env present on virions and HIV-1-infected cells. Temsavir treatment also reduces the capacity of bNAbs to eliminate HIV-1-infected cells by antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). Consequently, the impact of temsavir on Env glycosylation and antigenicity should be considered for the development of new antibody-based approaches in temsavir-treated individuals. IMPORTANCE FDA-approved fostemsavir, the prodrug for the active moiety small molecule temsavir (GSK 2616713 [formally BMS-626529]), acts as an attachment inhibitor by targeting the HIV-1 envelope (Env) and preventing CD4 interaction. Temsavir also stabilizes Env in its "closed," functional state 1 conformation, which represents an ideal target for broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs). Since these antibodies recognize conformation-dependent epitopes composed of or adjacent to glycans, we evaluated the impact of temsavir treatment on overall Env glycosylation and its influence on bNAb recognition. Our results showed an alteration of Env glycosylation and cleavage by temsavir at physiological concentrations. This significantly modifies the overall antigenicity of Env and therefore reduces the capacity of bNAbs to recognize and eliminate HIV-1-infected cells by ADCC. These findings provide important information for the design of immunotherapies aimed at targeting the viral reservoir in temsavir-treated individuals.

Abstract
Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have proven effective for the treatment of ebolavirus infection in humans, with two mAb-based drugs Inmazeb™ and Ebanga™ receiving FDA approval in 2020. While these drugs represent a major advance in the field of filoviral therapeutics, they are composed of antibodies with single-species specificity for Zaire ebolavirus. The Ebolavirus genus includes five additional species, two of which, Bundibugyo ebolavirus and Sudan ebolavirus, have caused severe disease and significant outbreaks in the past. There are several recently identified broadly neutralizing ebolavirus antibodies, including some in the clinical development pipeline, that have demonstrated broad protection in preclinical studies. In this review, we describe how structural biology has illuminated the molecular basis of broad ebolavirus neutralization, including details of common antigenic sites of vulnerability on the glycoprotein surface. We begin with a discussion outlining the history of monoclonal antibody therapeutics for ebolaviruses, with an emphasis on how structural biology has contributed to these efforts. Next, we highlight key structural studies that have advanced our understanding of ebolavirus glycoprotein structures and mechanisms of antibody-mediated neutralization. Finally, we offer examples of how structural biology has contributed to advances in anti-viral medicines and discuss what opportunities the future holds, including rationally designed next-generation therapeutics with increased potency, breadth, and specificity against ebolaviruses.

Abstract
Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is caused by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and remains a global health problem four decades after the report of its first case. Despite success in viral load suppression and the increase in patient survival due to combined antiretroviral therapy (cART), the development of new drugs has become imperative due to strains that have become resistant to antiretrovirals. In this context, there has been a continuous search for new anti-HIV agents based on several chemical scaffolds, including nitrogenated heterocyclic pyrrole rings, which have been included in several compounds with antiretroviral activity. Thus, this review aims to describe pyrrole-based compounds with anti-HIV activity as a new potential treatment against AIDS, covering the period between 2015 and 2020. Our research allowed us to conclude that pyrrole derivatives are still worth exploring, as they may provide highly active compounds targeting different steps of the HIV-1 replication cycle and act with an innovative mechanism.

Abstract
COVID-19 is a global crisis of unimagined dimensions. Currently, Remedesivir is only fully licensed FDA therapeutic. A major target of the vaccine effort is the SARS-CoV-2 spike-hACE2 interaction, and assessment of efficacy relies on time consuming neutralization assay. Here, we developed a cell fusion assay based upon spike-hACE2 interaction. The system was tested by transient co-transfection of 293T cells, which demonstrated good correlation with standard spike pseudotyping for inhibition by sera and biologics. Then established stable cell lines were very well behaved and gave even better correlation with pseudotyping results, after a short, overnight co-incubation. Results with the stable cell fusion assay also correlated well with those of a live virus assay. In summary we have established a rapid, reliable, and reproducible cell fusion assay that will serve to complement the other neutralization assays currently in use, is easy to implement in most laboratories, and may serve as the basis for high throughput screens to identify inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 virus-cell binding and entry.

Abstract
PURPOSE The pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, and role in therapy of fostemsavir in management of HIV-1 infection are reviewed, with an emphasis on clinical efficacy and safety data from phase 2 and phase 3 clinical trials. SUMMARY Fostemsavir (Rukobia, ViiV Healthcare), is a prodrug of temsavir, a novel pyridine compound with potent activity against HIV-1. Fostemsavir, the first oral attachment inhibitor, was approved and granted the breakthrough therapy designation by the Food and Drug Administration for use in combination with other antiretroviral agents for the treatment of HIV-1 infection in heavily treatment-experienced adults. As absorption of temsavir is not altered with increased gastric pH, patients may take acid suppressive agents such as famotidine during fostemsavir therapy.Temsavir is primarily metabolized through hydrolysis but also via cytochrome P-450 (CYP) oxidation; therefore, coadministration of fostemsavir with strong CYP3A inducers such as rifampin, carbamazepine, phenytoin, mitotane, enzalutamide, or St John's wort is contraindicated because it may result in significantly lower temsavir exposure, which can ultimately impair virologic response. The most common adverse reactions associated with fostemsavir use include nausea, diarrhea, headache, abdominal pain, dyspepsia, fatigue, rash, and sleep disturbance. CONCLUSION Fostemsavir may be an effective option for heavily treatment-experienced adults with multidrug-resistant HIV-1 infection. Fostemsavir is a particularly attractive treatment option for patients who are no longer able to achieve viral suppression with use of currently available antiretroviral therapies and who are able to adhere to a twice-daily oral regimen.

IgG Fc-binding motif-conjugated HIV-1 fusion inhibitor exhibits improved potency and in vivo half-life: Potential application in combination with broad neutralizing antibodies. PLoS Pathog 2019; 15:e1008082.

Abstract
The clinical application of conventional peptide drugs, such as the HIV-1 fusion inhibitor enfuvirtide, is limited by their short half-life in vivo. To overcome this limitation, we developed a new strategy to extend the in vivo half-life of a short HIV-1 fusion inhibitory peptide, CP24, by fusing it with the human IgG Fc-binding peptide (IBP). The newly engineered peptide IBP-CP24 exhibited potent and broad anti-HIV-1 activity with IC50 values ranging from 0.2 to 173.7 nM for inhibiting a broad spectrum of HIV-1 strains with different subtypes and tropisms, including those resistant to enfuvirtide. Most importantly, its half-life in the plasma of rhesus monkeys was 46.1 h, about 26- and 14-fold longer than that of CP24 (t1/2 = 1.7 h) and enfuvirtide (t1/2 = 3 h), respectively. IBP-CP24 intravenously administered in rhesus monkeys could not induce significant IBP-CP24-specific antibody response and it showed no obvious in vitro or in vivo toxicity. In the prophylactic study, humanized mice pretreated with IBP-CP24 were protected from HIV-1 infection. As a therapeutic treatment, coadministration of IBP-CP24 and normal human IgG to humanized mice with chronic HIV-1 infection resulted in a significant decrease of plasma viremia. Combining IBP-CP24 with a broad neutralizing antibody (bNAb) targeting CD4-binding site (CD4bs) in gp120 or a membrane proximal external region (MPER) in gp41 exhibited synergistic effect, resulting in significant dose-reduction of the bNAb and IBP-CP24. These results suggest that IBP-CP24 has the potential to be further developed as a new HIV-1 fusion inhibitor-based, long-acting anti-HIV drug that can be used alone or in combination with a bNAb for treatment and prevention of HIV-1 infection.
