New antiviral agents were prepared by attaching derivatives of sialic acid (1) and of the drug zanamivir (2) to poly(isobutylene-alt-maleic anhydride) (poly-(1 + 2)) or by mixing poly-1 and poly-2, followed by assaying them against wild-type and drug-resistant influenza A Wuhan viruses.
Individually or together, 1 and 2 were covalently bonded to the polymer. The antiviral potencies of the resultant poly-1, poly-2, poly-(1 + 2), and poly-1 + poly-2, as well as 1 and 2, were assessed using plaque reduction assay.
Attaching 1 to the polymer improved at best millimolar IC(50) values over three orders of magnitude. While 2 exhibited micromolar IC(50) values, poly-2 was >100-fold even more potent. The IC(50) of poly-(1 + 2) against the wild-type strain was >300-fold and approximately 17-fold better than of poly-1 and poly-2, respectively. In contrast, the potency of poly-(1 + 2) vs. poly-2 against the mutant strain merely doubled. The mixture of poly-1 + poly-2 inhibited both viral strains similarly to poly-2.
The bifunctional poly-(1 + 2) acts synergistically against the wild-type influenza virus, but not against its drug-resistant mutant, as compared to a physical mixture of the monofunctional poly-1 and poly-2.
通过将唾液酸(1)和扎那米韦(2)的衍生物连接到聚异丁烯-马来酸酐共聚物(聚(1+2))或混合聚(1)和聚(2),然后对其进行抗野生型和耐药型流感 A 武汉病毒的检测,制备了新的抗病毒药物。
1 和 2 分别或一起与聚合物共价结合。通过噬菌斑减少法评估所得的聚(1)、聚(2)、聚(1+2)和聚(1+2)以及 1 和 2 的抗病毒效力。
将 1 连接到聚合物上可将最佳毫摩尔 IC50 值提高三个数量级以上。虽然 2 表现出微摩尔 IC50 值,但聚(2)的效力高 100 倍以上。聚(1+2)对野生型菌株的 IC50 值>300 倍,分别比聚(1)和聚(2)高约 17 倍。相比之下,聚(1+2)对突变株的效力仅提高了两倍。聚(1+2)混合物对两种病毒株的抑制作用与聚(2)相似。
与单功能聚(1)和聚(2)的物理混合物相比,双功能聚(1+2)对野生型流感病毒具有协同作用,但对其耐药突变体则没有。
