Abstract

HIV-1 was identified in 1983 as the causative agent of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, which has been responsible for more than 39 million deaths till date. There are presently more than 26 molecules and their analogs approved by US FDA for antiretroviral therapy. With these regimens, we have been able to control the disease to a great extent but have failed to eradicate HIV from the patients. Natural resources such as plant derivatives are a rich source of bioactive molecules with great pharmacological importance. We present here an overview of major groups of plant derivatives including alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenes, etc., with respect to their anti-HIV potential, along with the stage/s of virus life cycle interfered or inhibited by these molecules.
