Inhibition of the SARS-CoV-2 Non-structural Protein 5 (NSP5) Protease by Nitrosocarbonyl-Bases Small Molecules.

In the present work, we have designed and synthesized potential NSP5 protease allosteric inhibitors exploiting both docking and molecular dynamic data on SARS-CoV-2. The chemical protocols were developed on the basis of 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions as well as the chemistry of nitrosocarbonyl intermediates. Computational studies were first conducted for determining the best candidate for SARS-CoV-2 NSP5 protease inhibition.

HTLV-1/2 infection in Italy: a narrative review of epidemiological studies.

The human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) was first described in 1980. It is spread in highly endemic regions in the world, such as the Southwestern part of Japan, sub-Saharan Africa and South America, Caribbean, Middle East, and Australo-Melanesia regions. HTLV-1 causes adult T cell leukemia and is associated with many inflammatory conditions, most notably HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropic spastic paraparesis.

Human T-Cell Leukemia Virus Type 1 Oncogenesis between Active Expression and Latency: A Possible Source for the Development of Therapeutic Targets.

The human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is the only known human oncogenic retrovirus. HTLV-1 can cause a type of cancer called adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL). The virus is transmitted through the body fluids of infected individuals, primarily breast milk, blood, and semen.

Inhibition of the RNA-Dependent RNA-Polymerase from SARS-CoV-2 by 6-Chloropurine Isoxazoline-Carbocyclic Monophosphate Nucleotides.

Isoxazoline-carbocyclic monophosphate nucleotides were designed and synthesized through the chemistry of nitrosocarbonyl intermediates and stable anthracenenitrile oxide. Docking and molecular dynamics studies were first conducted for determining the best candidate for polymerase SARS-CoV-2 inhibition. The setup phosphorylation protocol afforded the nucleotides available for the biological tests.
