ABSTRACT
Marine micro-organisms have been proven to be excellent sources of bioactive compounds against HIV-1. Several natural products obtained from marine-derived Aspergillus fungi were screened for their activities to inhibit HIV-1 infection. Penicillixanthone A (PXA), a natural xanthone dimer from jellyfish-derived fungus Aspergillus fumigates, displayed potent anti-HIV-1 activity by inhibiting infection against CCR5-tropic HIV-1 SF162 and CXCR4-tropic HIV-1 NL4-3, with IC50 of 0.36 and 0.26 µM, respectively. Molecular docking study was conducted to understand the possible binding mode of PXA with the CCR5/CXCR4. The results revealed that, the marine-derived PXA, as a CCR5/CXCR4 dual-coreceptor antagonist, presents a new type of potential lead product for the development of anti-HIV therapeutics.
