Web: www.taiclone.com Tel: +886-2-2735-9682 Email: [email protected] NITD008 is a potent and selective flaviviruse inhibitor which can inhibit Dengue Virus Type 2 (DENV-2) with an EC of 0.64 μM. 50 IC50 & Target: EC50: 0.64 μM (DENV-2)[1] In Vitro: NITD008 potently inhibits other, including Dengue virus (DENV), West Nile virus, yellow fever virus, and Poissan virus. NITD008 inhibits DENV-2 in a dose-responsive manner, with an EC value of 0.64 μM; treatment with 9 μM compound reduces viral 50 titer by >104-fold[1]. NITD008 also inhibits a luciferase-reporting replicon of hepatitis C virus (HCV, genotype 1b), a member from the genus Hepacivirus, with an EC value of 0.11 μM[1]. 50 In Vivo: NITD008 is orally bioavailable and has good pharmacokinetic properties. NITD008 exhibits the best pharmacokinetic parameters when formulated using 6 N of HCl (1.5 equimolar amount), 1 N of NaOH (pH adjusted to 3.5), and 100 mM citrate buffer (pH 3.5). Following i.v. injection, NITD008 has a high volume of distribution (3.71 L/kg) and a low systemic clearance (31.11 mL/min per kg), resulting in a long elimination half-life (t =4.99 h). After p.o. dosing, NITD008 is rapidly absorbed (time of peak plasma 1/2 concentration=0.5 h), with a maximal plasma concentration of 3 μM and bioavailability of 48%. Treatment of the mice immediately after viral infection with 1 mg/kg of NITD008 does not reduce mortality, but treatment with 3 mg/kg partially protects and treatment with ≥10 mg/kg completely protects the infected mice from death. NITD008 can suppress peak viremia, decrease cytokine elevation, and prevent death[1]. All products are for RESEARCH USE ONLY. Not for diagnostic & therapeutic purposes!

  • Antibiotic Fidaxomicin Is an Rdrp Inhibitor As a Potential New Therapeutic Agent Against Zika Virus
    Yuan et al. BMC Medicine (2020) 18:204 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12916-020-01663-1 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Antibiotic fidaxomicin is an RdRp inhibitor as a potential new therapeutic agent against Zika virus Jie Yuan1,2,3†, Jianchen Yu2,3,4†, Yun Huang3, Zhenjian He2,5, Jia Luo6, Yun Wu2,4,7, Yingchun Zheng8, Jueheng Wu2,4,7, Xun Zhu2,4, Haihe Wang1 and Mengfeng Li2,3,4* Abstract Background: Zika virus (ZIKV) infection is a global health problem, and its complications, including congenital Zika syndrome and Guillain-Barré syndrome, constitute a continued threat to humans. Unfortunately, effective therapeutics against ZIKV infection are not available thus far. Methods: We screened the compounds collection consisting of 1789 FDA-approved drugs by a computational docking method to obtain anti-ZIKV candidate compounds targeting ZIKV RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp). SPR (BIAcore) assay was employed to demonstrate the candidate compounds’ direct binding to ZIKV RdRp, and polymerase activity assay was used to determine the inhibitory effect on ZIKV RdRp-catalyzed RNA synthesis. The antiviral effects on ZIKV in vitro and in vivo were detected in infected cultured cells and in Ifnar1−/− mice infected by ZIKV virus using plaque assay, western blotting, tissue immunofluorescence, and immunohistochemistry. Results: Here, we report that a first-in-class macrocyclic antibiotic, which has been clinically used to treat Clostridium difficile infection, fidaxomicin, potently inhibits ZIKV replication in vitro and in vivo. Our data showed that fidaxomicin was effective against African and Asian lineage ZIKV in a wide variety of cell lines of various tissue origins, and prominently suppressed ZIKV infection and significantly improved survival of infected mice.

  • DNA/RNA Synthesis
    DNA/RNA Synthesis RNA synthesis, which is also called DNA transcription, is a highly selective process. Transcription by RNA polymerase II extends beyond RNA synthesis, towards a more active role in mRNA maturation, surveillance and export to the cytoplasm. Single-strand breaks are repaired by DNA ligase using the complementary strand of the double helix as a template, with DNA ligase creating the final phosphodiester bond to fully repair the DNA.DNA ligases discriminate against substrates containing RNA strands or mismatched base pairs at positions near the ends of the nickedDNA. Bleomycin (BLM) exerts its genotoxicity by generating free radicals, whichattack C-4′ in the deoxyribose backbone of DNA, leading to opening of the ribose ring and strand breakage; it is an S-independentradiomimetic agent that causes double-strand breaks in DNA. First strand cDNA is synthesized using random hexamer primers and M-MuLV Reverse Transcriptase (RNase H). Second strand cDNA synthesis is subsequently performed using DNA Polymerase I and RNase H. The remaining overhangs are converted into blunt ends using exonuclease/polymerase activity. After adenylation of the 3′ ends of DNA fragments, NEBNext Adaptor with hairpin loop structure is ligated to prepare the samples for hybridization. Cell cycle and DNA replication are the top two pathways regulated by BET bromodomain inhibition. Cycloheximide blocks the translation of mRNA to protein. www.MedChemExpress.com 1 DNA/RNA Synthesis Inhibitors, Agonists, Activators, Modulators & Chemicals (+)-TK216 (-)-TK216 Cat.

  • Zika Virus Induces Neuronal and Vascular Degeneration In
    Li et al. acta neuropathol commun (2021) 9:97 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40478-021-01195-6 RESEARCH Open Access Zika virus induces neuronal and vascular degeneration in developing mouse retina Yi Li1, Shuizhen Shi1, Fan Xia1, Chao Shan2, Yonju Ha1, Jing Zou2, Awadalkareem Adam3, Ming Zhang4, Tian Wang3, Hua Liu1,5*, Pei‑Yong Shi2,6* and Wenbo Zhang1,6,7* Abstract Zika virus (ZIKV), a mosquito‑borne favivirus, can cause severe eye disease and even blindness in newborns. However, ZIKV‑induced retinal lesions have not been studied in a comprehensive way, mechanisms of ZIKV‑induced retinal abnormalities are unknown, and no therapeutic intervention is available to treat or minimize the degree of vision loss in patients. Here, we developed a novel mouse model of ZIKV infection to evaluate its impact on retinal structure. ZIKV (20 plaque‑forming units) was inoculated into neonatal wild type C57BL/6J mice at postnatal day (P) 0 subcu‑ taneously. Retinas of infected mice and age‑matched controls were collected at various ages, and retinal structural alterations were analyzed. We found that ZIKV induced progressive neuronal and vascular damage and retinal infam‑ mation starting from P8. ZIKV‑infected retina exhibited dramatically decreased thickness with loss of neurons, initial neovascular tufts followed by vessel dilation and degeneration, increased microglia and leukocyte recruitment and activation, degeneration of astrocyte network and gliosis. The above changes may involve infammation and endo‑ plasmic reticulum stress‑mediated cell apoptosis and necroptosis. Moreover, we evaluated the efcacy of preclinical drugs and the safety of ZIKV vaccine candidate in this mouse model.

These authors contributed equally to this work. y Received: 1 March 2019; Accepted: 17 March 2019; Published: 17 April 2019 Abstract: Zika virus (ZIKV) infection was historically considered a disease with mild symptoms and no major consequences to human health. However, several long-term, late onset, and chronic neurological complications, both in congenitally-exposed babies and in adult patients, have been reported after ZIKV infection, especially after the 2015 epidemics in the American continent. The development or severity of these conditions cannot be fully predicted, but it is possible that genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors may contribute to determine ZIKV infection outcomes. This reinforces the importance that individuals exposed to ZIKV are submitted to long-term clinical surveillance and highlights the urgent need for the development of therapeutic approaches to reduce or eliminate the neurological burden of infection. Here, we review the epidemiology of ZIKV-associated neurological complications and the role of factors that may influence disease outcome.

In this brief study, we describe the in vitro antiviral activity of adenosine analog NITD008 against KFDV, AHFV, OHFV, as well as Tick-borne Encephalitis virus (TBEV). Alongside the well-established activity of NITD008 against mosquito-borne flaviviruses, our results have demonstrated the feasibility of identifying nucleoside analog inhibitors that have pan-flavivirus activity. Keywords Flavivirus; NITD008; Antiviral; Nucleoside analog; Tick-borne Tick-borne flaviviruses within the family Flaviviridae are among the most medically important arboviruses globally, with Tick-borne Encephalitis virus (TBEV) being the best- studied virus within the tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) serocomplex (Dobler, 2010). Despite the availability of several vaccines against TBEV, there are still thousands of human TBE cases detected annually across Eurasia (Amicizia et al., 2013).

Currently, the only vaccines approved against caliciviruses are for feline and rabbit-specific members of this group, and thus there is a growing effort towards the development of broad-spectrum antivirals for calicivirus infections. In this study, we evaluated the antiviral activity of the adenosine analogue NITD008 in vitro using three calicivirus model systems namely; feline calicivirus (FCV), murine norovirus (MNV), and the human norovirus replicon. We show that the nucleoside analogue (NA), NITD008, has limited toxicity and inhibits calicivirus replication in all three model systems with EC50 values of 0.94 µM, 0.91 µM, and 0.21 µM for MNV, FCV, and the Norwalk replicon, respectively.
