Amphotericin B Inhibits Enterovirus 71 Replication by Impeding Viral Entry
Enterovirus 71 (EV71) infection causes hand-foot-and-mouth disease that leads to cardiopulmonary complications and death in young children. There is thus an urgent need to find new treatments to control EV71 infection. In this study, we report potent inhibition of EV71 by a polyene antibiotic Amphotericin B. Amphotericin B profoundly diminished the expression of EV71 RNA and viral proteins in t...
متن کاملBlocking human enterovirus 71 replication by targeting viral 2A protease.
OBJECTIVES Human enterovirus 71 (EV-71), a member of the Enterovirus genus, constitutes a major public health issue in the Asia-Pacific region, where it is associated with several severe neurological complications. There is currently no effective vaccine or antiviral against EV-71. The aim of this study was to determine whether the six amino acid peptide LVLQTM, which was previously shown to in...
متن کاملCurcumin inhibits the replication of enterovirus 71 in vitro
Human enterovirus 71 (EV71) is the main causative pathogen of hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) in children. The epidemic of HFMD has been a public health problem in Asia-Pacific region for decades, and no vaccine and effective antiviral medicine are available. Curcumin has been used as a traditional medicine for centuries to treat a diversity of disorders including viral infections. In this...
متن کاملUGGT1 enhances enterovirus 71 pathogenicity by promoting viral RNA synthesis and viral replication
Positive-strand RNA virus infections can induce the stress-related unfolded protein response (UPR) in host cells. This study found that enterovirus A71 (EVA71) utilizes host UDP-glucose glycoprotein glucosyltransferase 1 (UGGT1), a key endoplasmic reticulum protein (ER) involved in UPR, to enhance viral replication and virulence. EVA71 forms replication complexes (RCs) on cellular membranes tha...
متن کاملDaphne Genkwa Sieb. et Zucc. Water-Soluble Extracts Act on Enterovirus 71 by Inhibiting Viral Entry
Dried flowers of Daphne genkwa Sieb. et Zucc. (Thymelaeaceae) are a Chinese herbal medicine used as an abortifacient with purgative, diuretic and anti-inflammatory activities. However, the activity of this medicine against enteroviral infections has not been investigated. The water-extract of dried buds of D. genkwa Sieb. et Zucc. (DGFW) was examined against various strains of enterovirus 71 (E...
