Abstract

The sialidase (neuraminidase) inhibitor 4-guanidino-2,4-dideoxy-2,3-dehydro-N-acetylneuraminic acid (4-guanidino-Neu5Ac2en) has been examined for the ability to inhibit the growth of a wide range of influenza A and B viruses in vitro in comparison with amantadine, rimantadine, and ribavirin. 4-Guanidino-Neu5Ac2en inhibited plaque formation by laboratory-passaged strains of influenza A and B viruses, with 50% inhibitory concentrations ranging from 0.005 to 0.014 microM. A wider range of values (0.02 to 16 microM) was obtained with more recent clinical isolates, but in all cases 4-guanidino-Neu5Ac2en inhibited influenza A and B virus replication at lower concentrations than amantadine, rimantadine, or ribavirin. Inhibition by 4-guanidino-Neu5Ac2en was not obviously affected by the passage history of the viruses or by resistance to amantadine or rimantadine. 4-Guanidino-Neu5Ac2en was a very potent inhibitor of the sialidases of all the influenza viruses examined, with 50% inhibitory concentrations ranging from 0.00064 to 0.0079 microM. No cytotoxicity was observed with 4-guanidino-Neu5Ac2en at up to 10 mM. 4-Guanidino-Neu5Ac2en therefore represents a new potent and selective inhibitor of influenza A and B virus sialidase activity and replication in vitro.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
