متن کاملFlavonoids as anti-inflammatory agents.
Epidemiological evidence suggests that a high intake of plant foods is associated with lower risk of chronic diseases. However, the mechanism of action and the components involved in this effect have not been identified clearly. In recent years, the scientific community has agreed to focus its attention on a class of secondary metabolites extensively present in a wide range of plant foods: the ...
متن کاملNeuraminidase inhibitors as anti-influenza virus agents.
Influenza virus neuraminidase (NA) catalyses the cleavage of sialic acid residues terminally linked to glycoproteins and glycolipids and plays an important role in the replication of the virus. Recently, several potent NA inhibitors have been synthesized based on the rational design of mimicking the transition state of the sialic acid cleavage. Zanamivir and oseltamivir (GS 4104, the prodrug of...
متن کاملCysteine Cathepsin Inhibitors as Anti-Ebola Agents.
The recent Ebola virus outbreak in western Africa highlights the need for novel therapeutics that target Ebola virus and other filoviruses. Filoviruses require processing by host cell-derived cysteine cathepsins for productive infection. Here we report the generation of a focused library of cysteine cathepsin inhibitors and subsequent screening to identify compounds with potent activity against...
متن کاملRibonucleotide reductase inhibitors as anti-herpes agents.
Ribonucleotide reductases (RNRs) supply the 2'-deoxyribonucleotide building blocks for DNA synthesis in mammalian cells and for herpes viruses. The viral-encoded RNRs have unique protein sequences that differ from mammalian enzyme primary structures. Selective inhibition of a viral RNR might provide an approach to new anti-herpes agents with minimal effects on the mammalian host RNRs. This revi...
