Glycyrrhizin sulfate (GLS) was synthesized and investigated for antiviral effect on the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in vitro in comparison with the parental anti-HIV compound glycyrrhizin (GL). In MT-4 cells after HIV infection, the virus-induced cytopathic effect and the expression of viral antigens were inhibited by 0.25 mg/ml (0.184 mM) of GLS. Moreover, GLS completely inhibited HIV-induced plaque formation in MT-4 cells at a concentration of 1 mg/ml (736 microM), the 50% inhibitory dose being 0.055 mg/ml (40 microM). GLS was found to be an efficient inhibitor of reverse transcriptase. The effect of GLS was 4 times stronger than that of GL in molar terms.
合成了硫酸甘草甜素(GLS),并与母体抗HIV化合物甘草甜素(GL)比较,研究了其在体外对人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)的抗病毒作用。在HIV感染后的MT-4细胞中,0.25mg/ml(0.184mM)的GLS可抑制病毒诱导的细胞病变效应和病毒抗原的表达。此外,GLS在浓度为1mg/ml(736μM)时可完全抑制MT-4细胞中HIV诱导的空斑形成,50%抑制剂量为0.055mg/ml(40μM)。发现GLS是一种有效的逆转录酶抑制剂。从摩尔角度来看,GLS的作用比GL强4倍。
