Darunavir is an orally-bioavailable non-peptidic inhibitor of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) protease that selectively inhibits HIV-1 protease enzyme induced cleavage of gag and gag-pol poly-proteins preventing the maturation of virions and also inhibits the dimerization of HIV-1 protease suppressing proteolytic activity and subsequent replication of HIV-1. Study results have shown that darunavir exhibits potent inhibition against HIV-1 with a value of 50% inhibition concentration IC50 of 0.003 μmol/L in HIV-1 infected MT-2 cells. Darunavir binds to HIV-1 protease with considerably high affinity and fits closely with the substrate envelop leading to its potent ability to inhibit multidrug-resistant HIV strains.

Cell lines
MT-2 cells and phytohemagglutinin-activated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PHA-PBMCs)
Reaction Conditions
3 nM darunavir (IC50 in MT-2 cells) for 7 d incubation
Applications
Darunavir was active against HIV-1LAI in MT-2 cells (IC50 = 3 nM) with a 50% cytotoxic concentration (CC50) of 74.4 μM. Darunavir was also active against wild-type and multidrug-resistant clinical isolates of HIV-1 in PHA-PBMCs, with IC50 values being 3 and 3 ~ 29 nM, respectively.
