Chemical modification of the plant isoprenoid cytokinin N6-isopentenyladenosine yields a selective inhibitor of human enterovirus 71 replication
摘要:
In this study, we demonstrate that N-6-isopentenyladenosine, which essentially is a plant cytokinin-like compound, exerts a potent and selective antiviral effect on the replication of human enterovirus 71 with an EC50 of 1.0 +/- 0.2 mu M and a selectivity index (SI) of 5.7. The synthesis of analogs with modification of the N-6-position did not result in a lower EC50 value. However, in particular with the synthesis of N6-(5hexene-2-yne-1-yl)adenosine (EC50 = 43 +/- 1.5 mu M), the selectivity index was significantly increased: because of a reduction in the adverse effect of this compound on the host cells, an SI > 101 could be calculated. With this study, we for the first time provide proof that a compound class that is based on the plant cytokinin skeleton offers an interesting starting point for the development of novel antivirals against mammalian viruses, in the present context in particular against enterovirus 71.

Design and development of nucleoside analogs is an established strategy in the antiviral drug discovery field. Nevertheless, for many viruses the coverage of structure-activity relationships (SAR) in the nucleoside chemical space is not sufficient. Here we present the nucleoside SAR exploration for tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV), a member of Flavivirus genus. Promising antiviral activity may be achieved by introduction of large hydrophobic substituents in the position 6 of adenosine or bulky silyl groups to the position 5'. Introduction of methyls to the ribose moiety does not lead to inhibition of TBEV reproduction. Possible mechanisms of action of these nucleosides include the inhibition of viral entry or interaction with TBEV non-structural protein 5 methyltransferase or RNA-dependent RNA polymerase domains.

Nucleoside phosphorylases are involved in the salvage pathways of nucleoside biosynthesis and catalyze the reversible reaction of a nucleobase with α-D-ribose-1-phosphate to yield a corresponding nucleoside and an inorganic phosphate. The equilibrium of these reactions is shifted towards nucleosides, especially in the case of purines. Purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP, EC 2.4.2.1) is widely used
