Amprenavir (agenerase), an N,N-disubstituted hydroxyethylamino sulfonamide, is a novel inhibitor of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) protease that potently inhibits the activity of HIV-1 protease with a value of 50% inhibition concentration IC50 of 0.6 nM and also weakly inhibits HIV-2 protease with IC50 value of 19 nM. Amprenavir binds to the catalytic aspartate residues of the HIV-1 protease and hence inhibits the processing of the gag and gag-pol polyprotein precursors, which cleave to yield structural proteins and replication enzymes of HIV, resulting in immature and noninfectious viral particles. Amprenavir has been effectively used for the treatment of HIV disease in patients with primary HIV infection.

Cell lines
HepaRG hepatoma cells and LS180 intestinal cells
Preparation method
The solubility of this compound in DMSO is >10 mM. 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.
Reaction Conditions
10 μM; 24 hrs
Applications
Amprenavir induced PXR target gene expression in both HepaRG hepatoma cells and LS180 intestinal cells.
Animal models
WT and PXR-/- mice
Dosage form
10 mg/kg; p.o.; for 1 week
In the intestine of WT mice, Amprenavir-mediated PXR activation stimulated the expression of both LipF and LipA.
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.
