Small CD4-mimetic neutralization of viral particles. Neutralization of VSV-G pseudovirus (A), HIV-1CH58TF (B), HIV-1JRFL (C), or HIV-1AD8 (D) virus was performed with the indicated amounts of different compounds or the same volume of DMSO in TZM-bl cells. Luciferase activity (RLU—relative light units) was measured. Relative infectivity was calculated as the percentage of the value seen in the absence of compounds. Cell viability for TZM-bl ((E), left) or primary CD4+ T cells ((E), right) with different CD4mcs was measured using CellTiter-Glo One Solution assay for the quantitation of ATP presented in live cells. Data shown are the mean ± SD of at least three independent experiments.
