Abstract

Bivalent ligands which bind to MOR-CCR5 heterodimers are provided. The bivalent ligands comprise two discrete pharmacophores, naltrexone and maraviroc, linked by a spacer and bind to MOR-CCR5 heterodimers, e.g. at the surface of a cell. The bivalent ligands are useful in assays to detect MOR-CCR5 heterodimers, as therapeutic agents to prevent and/or treat diseases characterized by the presence of MOR-CCR5 heterodimers.
