Ritonavir
(Synonyms: RTV, ABT 538, Abbott 84538, A 84538) Copy Product InfoRitonavir (ABT 538) is a peptidomimetic agent that inhibits both HIV-1 and HIV-2 proteases. Ritonavir is highly inhibited by serum proteins but boosts the effect of other HIV proteases by blocking their degradation by cytochrome P450.

Product Introduction
Ritonavir AI Summary
Ritonavir demonstrates potent bioactivity against HIV-1 protease with a high binding affinity, indicated by a Ki value of 0.37 nM. It shows strong antiviral activity against HIV-1, with an effective concentration (IC90) of 150.0 nM in MT-4 cells. Its inhibitory activity extends to various mutant strains of the virus, exhibiting resistance values ranging from 2.4 to 30.0 fold, depending on the specific strain. The compound also exhibits pharmacokinetic properties with high oral bioavailability in rats, showing a maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) of 2600.0 nM and a moderate half-life of 1.2 hours. Furthermore, Ritonavir inhibits CYP3A4 enzyme activities, as demonstrated by an IC50 of 50.0 nM. Additionally, it shows inhibitory activity against ritonavir and nelfinavir-resistant HIV-1 strains, with EC50 values of 16.0 nM and 220.0 nM respectively, suggesting its potential as a promising candidate for HIV therapy..

Storage & Solubility Information
| Description | Ritonavir (ABT 538) is a peptidomimetic agent that inhibits both HIV-1 and HIV-2 proteases. Ritonavir is highly inhibited by serum proteins but boosts the effect of other HIV proteases by blocking their degradation by cytochrome P450. |
| In vivo | Ritonavir is a potent inhibitor of CYP3A-mediated biotransformation (terfenadine hydroxylation, IC50 of 0.14 mM; 17alpha-ethynylestradiol 2-hydroxylation, IC50 of 2 mM; nifedipine oxidation, IC50 of 0.07 mM).Ritonavir is a a potent inhibitor of CYP3A4-mediated testicular 6β-hydroxylation (Ki: 19 nM), and also inhibited hydroxylation by toluenesulfonylurea (IC50: 4.2 μM).Ritonavir also inhibited CYP2D6 (IC50: 2.5 mM) and CYP2C9/10 (IC50: 8.0 mM)-mediated responses.Ritonavir Ritonavir increased the cellular activity of uninfected human PBMC cultures.Ritonavir inhibited p-glycoprotein-mediated saquinavir solubilization (IC50: 0.2 μM), suggesting that Ritonavir has a high affinity for p-glycoprotein.Ritonavir significantly inhibited the metabolism of human hepatic microsomes ABT-378 (Ki: 13 nM). Ritonavir binding to ABT-378 ( in 3:1 and 29:1 ratios) was able to inhibit CYP3A (IC50: 1.1 and 4.6 μM). In cultures of uninfected human PBMCs, Ritonavir significantly reduced the susceptibility of PBMCs to apoptosis (associated with low levels of caspase-1 expression), decreased caspase-3 activity, and reduced membrane-bound protein staining. Ritonavir inhibited the induction of tumor necrosis factor produced by PBMCs and monocytes at nontoxic concentrations in a time- and dose-dependent manner. |
