Abstract: Raltegravir-related mutations emerged in 9 of 11 failing patients (82%): Q148H/R (n = 5), N155S/H (n = 3) and S230N (n = 1).

Abstract: The primary mutations N155H, Q148R/H or Q143R were observed during raltegravir therapy.
Abstract: We detected an association between the presence of the T206S in the baseline genotype and the absence of the primary Q148R/H mutation or any secondary mutation accompanying the N155H following raltegravir failure.
The dynamics of appearance and disappearance of HIV-1 integrase mutations during and after withdrawal of raltegravir therapy.
Abstract: In three other patients, viruses with N155H emerged at viral rebound either alone (2 months), followed by V151I (8 months) or alone (10 months), or together with V151I/G163RG (7 months).
Abstract: Loss of virus with the N155H mutation occurred in these patients when RAL therapy was terminated, despite maintenance of reverse transcriptase/polymerase resistance mutations.
Selective-advantage profile of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 integrase mutants explains in vivo evolution of raltegravir resistance genotypes.
Abstract: After prolonged viral escape, mutants of the N155H pathway are replaced by mutants of the Q148HKR pathway.
Abstract: The emergence of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 resistance to raltegravir, an integrase strand transfer inhibitor, follows distinct and independent genetic pathways, among which the N155H and Q148HKR pathways are the most frequently encountered in treated patients.
Abstract: These selective-advantage curves revealed that among single mutants, N155H had the highest and the widest (1 to 500 nM) selective-advantage profile.
Abstract: This finding likely explains why N155H can be selected early in the course of RAL resistance evolution in vivo but is later replaced by genotypes tha

Abstract: The treatment failure of an RAL regimen in the HIV-2 patient studied was associated with the emergence of mutations via the N155H resistance pathway and subsequent switching to the Y143C mutational route.

Abstract: Virologic failure during treatment with raltegravir, the first effective drug targeting HIV integrase, is associated with two exclusive pathways involving either Q148H/R/K, G140S/A or N155H mutations.
Mutation N155H in HIV-2 integrase confers high phenotypic resistance to raltegravir and impairs replication capacity.
Abstract: CONCLUSION: A continued low HIV-2 viral load seems to be enough to select the N155H mutation, which despite significantly impairing viral replication, shows a level of resistance sufficient to give a selective advantage to the virus that maintains this pathway of resistance to raltegravir overtime.
Abstract: Genotypic analysis at month 8 with raltegravir, revealed the development of N155H resistant mutation along with other changes in the HIV-2 integrase: V72I, I84V, A153G, N160K and S163S/G.
Loss of raltegravir susceptibility by human immunodeficiency virus type 1 is conferred via multiple nonoverlapping genetic pathways.
Abstract: Analysis of site-directed mutants indicated that E92Q in combination with N155H resulted in a higher level of resistance to raltegravir than N155H alone.
Abstract: Both N155H and Q148R(H)(K) mutations reduced the replication capacity, while the addition of secondary mutations either improved or reduced the replication capacity depending on the primary mutation.
Abstract: Clonal analysis demonstrated that N155H and Q148R(H)(K) occur independently, not in combination.

Effects of HIV type-1 immune selection on susceptability to integrase inhibitor resistance.
Introduction: Major genetic pathways to integrase resistance, initially through N155H and shifting to Q148H/K/R-G140S or directly to Q148H/K/R-G140S, have been reported.
Discussion: In this population-based review of all sites associated with integrase inhibitor resistance in 342 natural isolates of HIV-1 obtained from two geographically distinct cohorts in Switzerland and Australia, we observed that the primary raltegravir and elvitegravir resistance mutations T66I, E92Q, G140S, Y143C/H/R, Q148H/R/K and

Introduction: A genotypic resistance test could be performed in 38 of these patients of whom 35 selected resistance mutations in the integrase gene following the N155H or the Q148H/R/K path almost always associated with one additional mutation.
Introduction: Overall, by week 96 resistance tests were available for 112 raltegravir treated patients of whom 73% had integrase mutations at one of the three positions (Y143C/H/R, Q148H/K/R N155H) almost always in combination with at least one other mutation.
Introduction: The N155H or the Q148H/R/K alone are associated with high or intermediate levels of resistance that beca
