We have designed a glycodendritic structure, BH30sucMan, that blocks the interaction between dendritic cell-specific intercellular adhesion molecule 3-grabbing nonintegrin (DC-SIGN) and Ebola virus (EBOV) envelope. BH30sucMan inhibits DC-SIGN-mediated EBOV infection at nanomolar concentrations. BH30sucMan may counteract important steps of the infective process of EBOV and, potentially, of microorganisms shown to exploit DC-SIGN for cell entry and infection.
我们设计了一种糖树状结构,即BH30sucMan,它可阻断树突状细胞特异性细胞间黏附分子3结合非整合素(DC-SIGN)与埃博拉病毒(EBOV)包膜之间的相互作用。BH30sucMan在纳摩尔浓度下可抑制DC-SIGN介导的EBOV感染。BH30sucMan可能会抵消EBOV感染过程中的重要步骤,并且可能会抵消那些利用DC-SIGN进入细胞并进行感染的微生物感染过程中的重要步骤。
