Abstract：
:Pyridine N-oxide derivatives represent a new class of anti-HIV compounds for which some members exclusively inhibit HIV-1 RT, whereas other members act, additionally or alternatively, at a post-integrational event in the replicative cycle of HIV. A prototype pyridine N-oxide derivative, JPL-32, inhibited tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha)-induced HIV-1 expression in latently HIV-1-infected OM-10.1 and U1 cells, which could be reversed by the addition of N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC). The reversal of the antiviral activity of JPL-32 by NAC suggested the possible role of a redox-sensitive factor as target of inhibition. Indeed, when nuclear extracts of TNF-alpha-stimulated OM-10.1 and U1 cells cultured in the presence of JPL-32 were analyzed by an electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA), a dose-dependent inhibition of DNA binding of nuclear NF-kappaB was observed, which could be reversed by the addition of NAC. JPL-32 did not inhibit the release and subsequent degradation of IkappaBalpha, nor did JPL-32 affect the nuclear translocation of NF-kappaB. EMSA revealed that the inhibition of the NF-kappaB DNA binding activity by JPL-32 could be reversed by the addition of reducing agents such as dithiothreitol or beta-mercaptoethanol. Moreover, JPL-32 was able to directly oxidize the thiol groups on the purified p50 subunit of recombinant NF-kappaB. The oxidative modification of the thiol groups on NF-kappaB by JPL-32 could be ascribed to the intracellular pro-oxidant effect of JPL-32. Consequently, JPL-32 was able to increase the intracellular glutathione (GSH) levels and to induce apoptosis in a dose-dependent way.
