Lopinavir
Lopinavir (also known as ABT-378) is a highly potent inhibitor of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) protease that potently inhibits wild-type and mutant HIV protease with inhibition constant Ki values ranging from 1.3 to 3.6 pM. Lopinavir, a ritonavir analog designed to have a diminished interaction with Val82 in HIV protease, maintains a high potency inhibiting Val82 mutant HIV selected by ritonavir with 50% effective concentration EC50 value lower than 0.06 μM. Although the antiviral activity of ritonavir is considerably attenuated by human serum, lopinavir is less affected by human serum proteins and is 10-fold greater in potency than ritonavir in the presence of human serum.

Preparation method |
The solubility of this compound in DMSO is > 31.5 mg/mL. General tips for obtaining a higher concentration: Please warm the tube at 37 °C for 10 minutes and/or shake it in the ultrasonic bath for a while. Stock solution can be stored below - 20 °C for several months. |
Reacting condition |

Applications |
HIV with multiple mutations was markedly less resistant to Lopinavir than to Ritonavir. Although the activity of Lopinavir declined significantly against the multiply mutated strains compared with its activity against the baseline strains, the extent of the decline was substantially less than that of Ritonavir. Furthermore, the EC50 value of Lopinavir against HIV with multiple mutations was 10-fold lower than that of Ritonavir. |

Dosage form |
10 mg/kg; p.o. |
Applications |
The Cmax and oral bioavailability of Lopinavir in rats were 0.8 μg/mL and 25%, respectively. At 6th hr, the plasma level of Lopinavir declined below the level of quantitation (0.01 μg/mL). However, co-administration of Lopinavir with Ritonavir (10 mg/kg) maintained the concentrations of Lopinavir in excess of 3 μg/mL with low variability. In addition, the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from 0 ~ 8 hrs for Lopinavir increased 14-fold due to Ritonavir co-administration. |
Other notes |
Please test the solubility of all compounds indoor, and the actual solubility may slightly differ with the theoretical value. This is caused by an experimental system error and it is normal. |
