Protease inhibitors as antiviral agents.
Currently, there are a number of approved antiviral agents for use in the treatment of viral infections. However, many instances exist in which the use of a second antiviral agent would be beneficial because it would allow the option of either an alternative or a combination therapeutic approach. Accordingly, virus-encoded proteases have emerged as new targets for antiviral intervention. Molecu...
متن کاملErbB receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors as therapeutic agents.
The ErbB family of receptor tyrosine kinases comprise four members: EGFR, ErbB2, ErbB3 and ErbB4. All are essential for normal development and participate in the functioning of normal cells. ErbB receptors, particularly EGFR and ErbB2 are commonly deregulated in certain prevalent forms of human cancer. Recently a number of small molecule inhibitors of the tyrosine kinase activity of these recep...
متن کاملSubstituted 3-benzylcoumarins as allosteric MEK1 inhibitors: design, synthesis and biological evaluation as antiviral agents.
In order to find novel antiviral agents, a series of allosteric MEK1 inhibitors were designed and synthesized. Based on docking results, multiple optimizations were made on the coumarin scaffold. Some of the derivatives showed excellent MEK1 binding affinity in the appropriate enzymatic assays and displayed obvious inhibitory effects on the ERK pathway in a cellular assay. These compounds also ...
متن کاملPrenylation inhibitors: a novel class of antiviral agents.
Prenylation is a site-specific lipid modification of proteins. Although first described for a variety of cellular proteins, it has become apparent that viruses can also make use of this post-translational modification provided by their host cells. Depriving a virus access to prenylation can have dramatic effects on the targeted virus's life cycle. Selective pharmacological inhibitors of prenyla...
متن کاملMucin biopolymers as broad-spectrum antiviral agents.
Mucus is a porous biopolymer matrix that coats all wet epithelia in the human body and serves as the first line of defense against many pathogenic bacteria and viruses. However, under certain conditions viruses are able to penetrate this infection barrier, which compromises the protective function of native mucus. Here, we find that isolated porcine gastric mucin polymers, key structural compon...
