Discovery of dihydro-alkyloxy-benzyl-oxopyrimidines as promising anti-influenza virus agents

A series of novel dihydro-alkyloxy-benzyl-oxopyrimidine derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their activity against influenza virus in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells. Four dihydro-alkyloxy-benzyl-oxopyrimidine derivatives (4a1, 4a2, 4a3, and 4d1) showed potent activity against influenza virus. Among them, compound 4a3 was the most promising lead with broad activity against influenza A (antiviral EC(50) values of 9 and 18 μm for the A/H1N1 and A/H3N2 subtype, respectively) and influenza B viruses (EC(50) : 33 μm). The antiviral mechanism of action of these dihydro-alkyloxy-benzyl-oxopyrimidine derivatives must be quite different from that of the currently approved anti-influenza virus drugs that target the viral M2 or neuraminidase proteins. The dihydro-alkyloxy-benzyl-oxopyrimidine derivatives represent a new avenue for further optimization and development of novel anti-influenza virus agents.     

Sheng Jiang San,traditional multi-herb formulation,exerts anti-influenza effects in vitro and in vivo via neuraminidaseinhibition and immune regulation

OBJECTIVE Sheng Jiang San(SJS), a multi-herb formulation, is used in treating high fever, thirsty and anxiety in ancient China and it is sometimes used to treat seasonal influenza in modern. However, there is no evidencebased investigation and mechanism research to support SJS′s anti-influenza efficacy. This study aims to investigate the anti-influenza effect of SJS and its possible mechanisms. METHODS In this study, we examined the inhibitory effect of SJS against different influenza viruses on Madin-Darby canine kidney cells. Influenza virus infected BALB/c mice were employed as in vivo model to evaluate the efficacy. Mice challenged with A/PR/8/34(H1 N1) were orally administrated SJS 1 g·kg~(-1) daily for seven days and monitored for 14 d. The survival rate, body mass changes, lung index, lung viral load, histopathologic changes and immune-regulation of the mice were measured. The underlying anti-influenza virus mechanisms were studied by a series of biological assays in vitro to determine if hemagglutinin, ribonucleoprotein complex or nerauminidase were targets of SJS. RESULTS SJS exerted a broad spectrum of inhibitory effects on multiple influenza strains in a dose-dependent manner. And IC50 of SJS against A/WSN/33(H1 N1) was lower than 35 mg·L~(-1). SJS also protected50% of mice from influenza virus PR8 infection. The lung index and the lung viral load of SJS treated mice were significantly decrease compared with untreated mice. SJS 2 g·L~(-1) inhibited 80% of neuraminidase enzymatic activity. SJS also up-regulated TNF-α and IFN-α and down-regulated IL-2 of influenza virus induced mice. CONCLUSION SJS is a useful formulation for treating influenza virus infection.

In vivo anti-influenza virus activity of plant flavonoids possessing inhibitory activity for influenza virus sialidase.

Isoscutellarein (5,7,8,4'-tetrahydroxyflavone) from the leaf of Scutellaria baicalensis non-competitively inhibited (IC50, 20 microM) the hydrolysis of sodium p-nitrophenyl-N-acetyl-alpha-D-neuraminate by influenza virus sialidase with an apparent Ki value of 41 microM. Negligible inhibitory activity was observed for mouse liver sialidase at a concentration of 79 microM. Isoscutellarein also inhibited the replication of influenza virus A/WSN/33 in Madin-Darby bovine kidney cells with 50% virus inhibitory dose at 16 nmol/well and influenza virus A/PR/8/34 in the allantoic sac of embryonated egg with little toxic effects. The flavone showed significant anti-influenza virus activity in vitro similar to isoscutellarein-8-methylether (F36) (Nagai, T., Miyaichi, Y., Tomimori, T., Suzuki, Y. and Yamada H., 1990, Chem. Pharm. Bull. 38, 1329-1332), and more potent virucidal activity in ovo than F36. However, F36 completely prevented proliferation of mouse-adapted influenza virus A/PR/8/34 in mouse lung by the intranasal (0.5 mg/kg) and intraperitoneal (4 mg/kg) administrations, and it was more potent than the known anti-influenza virus substance, amantadine. Intranasal administration of F36 (0.5 mg/kg) also protected mice against a lethal influenza virus A/PR/8/34 infection. Isoscutellarein significantly inhibited lung virus proliferation when administered intranasally or orally to mice. F36 and isoscutellarein showed negligible toxic effect against mice. These results suggested that flavones, which have potent influenza virus sialidase inhibitory activity, have anti-influenza virus activity in vivo.     

Influenza virosome/DNA vaccine complex as a new formulation to induce intra-subtypic protection against influenza virus challenge

Influenza virosome is one of the commercially available vaccines that have been used for a number of years. Like other influenza vaccines, the efficacy of the virosomal vaccine is significantly compromised when circulating viruses do not have a good match with vaccine strains due to antigenic drift or less frequent emergence of a pandemic virus. A major advantage of virosome over other influenza vaccine platforms is its intrinsic adjuvant activity and potential carrier capability which have been exploited in this study to broaden vaccine protectivity by incorporating a conserved component of influenza virus in seasonal vaccine formulation. Influenza nucleoprotein (NP)-encoding plasmid was adsorbed onto surface of influenza virosomes as a virosome/DNA vaccine complex. Mice were immunized with a single dose of the influenza virosome attached with the NP plasmid or NP plasmid alone where both influenza virosomes and NP gene were derived from influenza A virus H1N1 New/Caledonia strain. Analysis of the cellular immune responses showed that 5μg (10-fold reduced dose) of the NP plasmid attached to the virosomes induced T cell responses equivalent to those elicited by 50μg of NP plasmid alone as assessed by IFN-γ and granzyme B ELISPOT. Furthermore, the influenza virosome/NP plasmid complex protected mice against intra-subtypic challenge with the mouse adapted H1N1 PR8 virus, while mice immunized with the virosome alone did not survive. Results of hemagglutination inhibition test showed that the observed intra-subtypic cross-protection could not be attributed to neutralizing antibodies. These findings suggest that influenza virosomes could be equipped with an NP-encoding plasmid in a dose-sparing fashion to elicit anti-influenza cytotoxic immune responses and broaden the vaccine coverage against antigenic drift.     

Antiviral effects of Psidium guajava Linn. (guava) tea on the growth of clinical isolated H1N1 viruses: its role in viral hemagglutination and neuraminidase inhibition

Rapid evolution of influenza RNA virus has resulted in limitation of vaccine effectiveness, increased emergence of drug-resistant viruses and occurrence of pandemics. A new effective antiviral is therefore needed for control of the highly mutative influenza virus. Teas prepared by the infusion method were tested for their anti-influenza activity against clinical influenza A (H1N1) isolates by a 19-h influenza growth inhibition assay with ST6Gal I-expressing MDCK cells (AX4 cells) using fluorogenic quantification and chromogenic visualization. Guava tea markedly inhibited the growth of A/Narita/1/2009 (amantadine-resistant pandemic 2009 strain) at an IC(50) of 0.05% and the growth of A/Yamaguchi/20/06 (sensitive strain) and A/Kitakyushu/10/06 (oseltamivir-resistant strain) at similar IC(50) values ranging from 0.24% to 0.42% in AX4 cells, being 3.4- to 5.4-fold more potent than green tea (IC(50) values: 0.27% for the 2009 pandemic strain and 0.91% to 1.44% for the seasonal strains). In contrast to both teas, oseltamivir carboxylate (OC) demonstrated high potency against the growth of A/Narita/1/09 (IC(50) of 3.83nM) and A/Yamaguchi/20/06 (IC(50) of 11.57nM) but not against that of A/Kitakyushu/10/06 bearing a His274-to-Tyr substitution (IC(50) of 15.97μM). Immunofluorescence analysis under a confocal microscope indicated that both teas inhibited the most susceptible A/Narita/1/2009 virus at the initial stage of virus infection. This is consistent with results of direct inhibition assays showing that both teas inhibited viral hemagglutination at concentrations comparable to their growth inhibition concentrations but inhibited sialidase activity at about 8-times higher concentrations. Guava tea shows promise to be efficacious for control of epidemic and pandemic influenza viruses including oseltamivir-resistant strains, and its broad target blockage makes it less likely to lead to emergence of viral resistance.     

The quest for a nanoparticle-based vaccine inducing broad protection to influenza viruses

Influenza virus infections are a significant public threat and the best approach to prevent them is through vaccination. Because of the perpetual changes of circulating influenza strains, the efficacy of influenza vaccines rarely exceeds 50%. To improve the protection efficacy, we have designed a novel vaccine formulation that shows a broad range of protection. The formulation is made of the matrix protein 2 (M2e) and the nucleoprotein (NP) antigens. The multimerization of NP into nanoparticles improved significantly the immune response to NP. The combination of the NP nanoparticles with the PapMV-M2e nanoparticles enhances significantly the immune response directed to NP revealing the adjuvant property of the PapMV platform. The vaccine formulation combining these two types of nanoparticles protects mice from infectious challenges by two different influenza strains (H1N1 and H3N2) and is a promising influenza A vaccine capable to elicit a broad protection.     

Effective small interfering RNAs targeting matrix and nucleocapsid protein gene inhibit influenza A virus replication in cells and mice

RNA interference (RNAi) is a powerful tool to silence gene expression. Small interfering RNA (siRNA)-induced RNA degradation has been recently used as an antivirus agent to inhibit specific virus replication. Here, we showed that several siRNAs specific for conserved regions of influenza virus matrix (M2) and nucleocapsid protein (NP) genes could effectively inhibit expression of the corresponding viral protein. We also evaluated the antiviral potential of these siRNAs targeting M2 and NP of H5N1 avian influenza virus (AIV), which are essential to viral replication. We investigated the inhibitory effect of M2-specific siRNAs and NP-specific siRNAs on influenza A virus (H5N1, H1N1 and H9N2) replication in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells and BALB/c mice. The results showed that treatment with these siRNAs could specifically inhibit influenza A virus replication in MDCK cells (0.51-1.63 TCID(50) reduction in virus titers), and delivery of pS-M48 and pS-NP1383 significantly reduced lung virus titers in the infected mice (16-50-fold reduction in lung virus titers) and partially protected the mice from lethal influenza virus challenge (a survival rate of 4/8 for H1N1 virus-infected mice and 2/8 for H5N1 virus infected mice). Moreover, the treatment of pS-M48 and pS-NP1383 could suppress replication of different subtypes of influenza A viruses, including a H5N1 highly pathogenic avian isolate strain. The results provided a basis for further development of siRNA for prophylaxis and therapy of influenza virus infection in humans and animals.     

In vitro anti-influenza virus and anti-inflammatory activities of theaflavin derivatives

The theaflavins fraction (TF80%, with a purity of 80%) and three theaflavin (TF) derivatives from black tea have been found to exhibit potent inhibitory effects against influenza virus in vitro. They were evaluated with a neuraminidase (NA) activity assay, a hemagglutination (HA) inhibition assay, a real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) assay for gene expression of hemagglutinin (HA) and a cytopathic effect (CPE) reduction assay. The experimental results showed that they all exerted significant inhibitory effects on the NA of three different subtypes of influenza virus strains [A/PR/8/34(H1N1), A/Sydney/5/97(H3N2) and B/Jiangsu/10/2003] with 50% inhibitory concentration (IC(50)) values ranging from 9.27 to 36.55 μg/mL, and they also displayed an inhibitory effect on HA; these inhibitory effects might constitute two major mechanisms of their antiviral activity. Time-of-addition studies demonstrated that TF derivatives might have a direct effect on viral particle infectivity, which was consistent with the inhibitory effect on HA. Subsequently, the inhibitory effect of TF derivatives on the replication of the viral HA gene as assayed by qPCR and on the nuclear localization of the influenza virus vRNP further demonstrated that they may primarily act during the early stage of infection. Interestingly, besides the activity against functional viral proteins, TF derivatives also decreased the expression level of the inflammatory cytokine IL-6 during viral infection, expression of which may result in serious tissue injury and apoptosis. Our results indicated that TF derivatives are potential compounds with anti-influenza viral replication and anti-inflammatory properties. These findings will provide important information for new drug design and development for the treatment of influenza virus infection.     

High molecular weight constituents of cranberry interfere with influenza virus neuraminidase activity in vitro

Cranberry juice contains high molecular weight non-dialyzable material (NDM) which was found to inhibit hemagglutination induced by the influenza virus (IV) as well as to neutralize the cytotoxicity of IV in cell cultures. Because influenza virus surface glycoproteins hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA) are involved in viral replication and in the infectious process, we sought in the present study to examine the effect of NDM on neuraminidases which are the target of most anti-influenza drugs today. NDM inhibited the NA enzymatic activity of influenza A and B strains as well as that of Streptococcus pneumoniae. This finding is of importance considering the emergence of influenza isolates resistant to antiviral drugs, reaching 90 % in some places. The anti-NA activity of NDM, evaluated by the MUNANA method and expressed as the concentration required for 50 % inhibition (IC??), was most potent against N1 (IC??, 192 μg/mL), less active against BN and N2 (IC??, 509 μg/mL and 1128 μg/mL, respectively), and moderately active against Streptococcus pneumoniae NA (IC??, 594 μg/mL). The in vitro findings of the present study suggest that cranberry constituents may have a therapeutic potential against both A and B influenza virus infections and might also interfere with the development of secondary bacterial complications.     

Arylazolyl(azinyl)thioacetanilide. Part 9: Synthesis and biological investigation of thiazolylthioacetamides derivatives as a novel class of potential antiviral agents

In continuation of our endeavor to develop new, potent, selective and less toxic antiviral agents, a novel series of 2-(2-amino/chloro-4-(2,4-dibromophenyl) thiazol-5-ylthio)acetamide derivatives was synthesized via an expeditious route and evaluated for their anti-HIV activities against wild-type virus and clinically relevant mutant strains, and for their anti-influenza virus activities against influenza A (H1N1 and H3N2) and influenza B in cellular assays. The selected active compounds were also assayed for their enzymic inhibitory activities. The results showed that some 2-chloro substituted thiazolylthioacetamide derivatives possessed potent activity against wild type HIV-1 and several key mutant strains (E138K, K103N, L100I) of HIV-1 in MT-4 cells with EC(50) values in micromolar range. Two 2-amino substituted thiazole derivatives 8a7 and 8a8 displayed significant potency against influenza A/H1N1 in MDCK cells with EC(50) values much lower than that of oseltamivir carboxylate, ribavirin, amantadine and rimantadine. Though the mechanism of actions is still unclear, these novel thiazolylthioacetamides might serve as original leads for further pharmacological investigations as potential therapeutic agents against HIV-1 or influenza virus.     

In vitro inhibition of human influenza A virus infection by fruit-juice concentrate of Japanese plum (Prunus mume SIEB. et ZUCC)

Using a plaque reduction assay, treatment of human influenza A viruses with the fruit-juice concentrate of Japanese plum (Prunus mume SIEB. et ZUCC) showed strong in vitro anti-influenza activity against human influenza A viruses before viral adsorption, but not after viral adsorption, with 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) values against A/PR/8/34 (H1N1) virus, A/Aichi/2/68 (H3N2) virus and A/Memphis/1/71 (H3N2) virus of 6.35+/-0.17, 2.84+/-1.98 and 0.53+/-0.10 microg/ml, respectively. The plum-juice concentrate exhibited hemagglutination activity toward guinea pig erythrocytes. Its hemagglutination activity was inhibited by the monosaccharide N-acetylneuraminic acid and a sialoglycoprotein (fetuin), but not by the other tested monosaccharides (mannose, galactose, glucose and N-acetylglucosamine), suggesting the presence of a lectin-like molecule(s) in the Japanese plum-juice concentrate. Our findings suggest that the fruit-juice concentrate of Japanese plum may prevent and reduce infection with human influenza A virus, possibly via inhibition of viral hemagglutinin attachment to host cell surfaces by its lectin-like activity.

Biological evaluation of anti-influenza viral activity of semi-synthetic catechin derivatives

Catechin derivatives with different alkyl chain length and aromatic ring substitutions at the 3-hydroxyl group were synthesized from epigallocatechin (EGC) and (+)-catechin (C) and their anti-influenza viral activity were evaluated in vitro and in ovo. Pronounced antiviral activity was observed for derivatives carrying moderate chain length (7-9 carbons) as compared to those with aromatic rings, whereas the 5'-hydroxyl group of the trihydroxy benzyl moiety did not significantly contribute to antiviral activity. The derivatives exerted inhibitory effects for all six influenza subtypes tested including three major types of currently circulating human influenza viruses (A/H1N1, A/H3N2 and B type), H2N2 and H9N2 avian influenza virus. The compounds strongly inhibited adsorption of the viruses on red blood cell (RBC). They also restricted the growth of avian influenza virus in ovo with minimum inhibition concentration (MIC) of 5-10 microM far exceeding the neuraminidase (NA) inhibitor oseltamivir or M2 proton channel inhibitor amantadine. The antiviral activity appears to be mediated by interaction with hemagglutinin (HA)/viral membrane rendering HA less fusogenic at the initial stage of infection. The broad spectrum activity against various subtypes of influenza viruses may complement the limitations of current antivirals and contribute for managing potentially emerging influenza pandemic. The structure-activity data of catechin derivatives may usefully guideline future research endeavors for applying green tea catechins as alternative anti-viral agents.     

Antisense oligonucleotides targeting the RNA binding region of the NP gene inhibit replication of highly pathogenic avian influenza virus H5N1

The H5N1 avian influenza virus (AIV) causes widespread infections in bird and human respiratory tracts, and vaccines and drug therapy are limited in their effectiveness. Recent studies of AIV structures have been published and provide new targets for designing antiviral drugs such as antisense oligonucleotides (AS ODNs), which effectively inhibit gene replication. In this study, we designed and synthesized three AS ODNs (NP267, NP628, NP749) that were specific for the RNA binding region of nucleoprotein (NP) based on AIV structure. Results showed that all three AS ODNs could inhibit viral replication in MDCK cells. The NP628 showed the best antiviral effect of all through viral titers, quantitative RT-PCR and indirect immunofluorescence (IFA) assays. In addition, the liposome mediated NP628 could partially protect the mice from a lethal H5N1 influenza virus challenge. Moreover, the NP628 group had a lower viral titer and lung index in the infected mice when compared with the viral control. Our results showed that AS ODN targeting of the AIV NP gene could potently inhibit AIV H5N1 reproduction, thus, formulating a candidate for an emergent therapeutic drug for the pathogenic H5N1 influenza virus infection.

Susceptibility of highly pathogenic A(H5N1) avian influenza viruses to the neuraminidase inhibitors and adamantanes

Since 2003, highly pathogenic A(H5N1) influenza viruses have been the cause of large-scale death in poultry and the subsequent infection and death of over 140 humans. A group of 55 influenza A(H5N1) viruses isolated from various regions of South East Asia between 2004 and 2006 were tested for their susceptibility to the anti-influenza drugs the neuraminidase inhibitors and adamantanes. The majority of strains were found to be fully sensitive to the neuraminidase inhibitors oseltamivir carboxylate, zanamivir and peramivir; however two strains demonstrated increased IC50 values. Sequence analysis of these strains revealed mutations in the normally highly conserved residues 116 and 117 of the N1 neuraminidase. Sequence analysis of the M2 gene showed that all of the A(H5N1) viruses from Vietnam, Malaysia and Cambodia contained mutations (L26I and S31N) associated with resistance to the adamantane drugs (rimantadine and amantadine), while strains from Indonesia were found to be a mix of both adamantane resistant (S31N) and sensitive viruses. None of the A(H5N1) viruses from Myanmar contained mutations known to confer adamantane resistance. These results support the use of neuraminidase inhibitors as the most appropriate class of antiviral drug to prevent or treat human A(H5N1) virus infections.     

Anti-influenza virus activity of the compound LY253963

The compound LY253963 (1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-ylcyanamide) inhibited the in vitro replication of representative influenza A and B viruses in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells at concentrations of 1-3.2 micrograms/ml. The yield of an influenza A (H3N2) virus in primary rhesus monkey kidney (RMK) cells was inhibited at 0.1-0.3 micrograms/ml. However, similar concentrations were inhibitory for the growth of uninfected MCDK or RMK cells. Combination drug studies generally found indifferent interactions between LY253963 and ribavirin or rimantadine. In timing of additional studies, hemagglutinin expression was inhibited to the greatest extent when LY253963 exposure was begun at least 8 h before viral infection, which suggested either slow uptake or intracellular metabolism of LY253963 to an active form. Virus-specific protein synthesis was inhibited to a greater extent by ribavirin 10 micrograms/ml or rimantadine 1 microgram/ml than by LY253963 10 micrograms/ml. No drug-resistant mutants were detected during serial passage of an influenza A (H3N2) virus in the presence of LY253963 1-16 micrograms/ml. In summary, we found that LY253963 inhibited influenza A and B virus replication in several cell types, but that it was associated with cytostatic effects at low concentrations. These studies failed to identify a selective anti-influenza action.
