The investigation of the dynamics of changes in neutralizing antibody titers against type 5 adenovirus in the context of vaccination against a new coronavirus infection.

This research focuses on analyzing the dynamics of neutralizing antibody (nAbs) titers against type 5 adenovirus (Ad5) in the adult population of Russia following vaccination against the novel coronavirus infection with recombinant adenovirus type-5 COVID-19 vaccine (CanSino Biologics, China). The impact of the Ad5 vector on nAb titers was investigated using 302 blood serum samples from individuals who received a single dose of the Ad5-nCoV vector vaccine. The research revealed that 33.

Polyfluoroalkylated antipyrines in Pd-catalyzed transformations.

In the direct C-H arylation with arylhalogenides in the presence of Pd(OAc), trifluoromethyl-containing antipyrine reacts very slowly and incompletely owing to the low nucleophilicity of its C4 center. However, it was effective in modifying polyfluoroalkyl-substituted 4-bromo- and 4-iodo antipyrines by the Suzuki and Sonogashira reactions. It was established that using Pd(dba) as catalyst and XPhos as phosphine ligand was the optimal catalytic system for the synthesis of 4-aryl- and 4-phenylethynyl-3-polyfluoroalkyl-antipyrines.

Antiviral activity of amides and carboxamides of quinolizidine alkaloid (-)-cytisine against human influenza virus A (H1N1) and parainfluenza virus type 3.

Novel derivatives of quinolizidine alkaloid ()-cytisine were synthesised. ADME properties, cytotoxicity against HEK293 cells and activity against viruses of influenza A/California/07/09(H1N1)pdm09 virus (IAV) and human parainfluenza virus type 3 (HPIV3) were evaluated. It was shown, that 9-carboxamides of methylcytisine (with phenyl and allyl urea's fragments) are most active compounds against IAV probably due to predicted peculiarity of their interactions with the 4R7B active site of IAV neuraminidase.

Anti-influenza activity of monoterpene-containing substituted coumarins.

Compounds simultaneously carrying the monoterpene and coumarin moieties have been tested for cytotoxicity and inhibition of activity against influenza virus A/California/07/09 (H1N1)pdm09. The structure of substituents in the coumarin framework, as well as the structure and the absolute configuration of the monoterpenoid moiety, are shown to significantly influence the anti-influenza activity and cytotoxicity of the compounds under study. The compounds with a bicyclic pinane framework exhibit the highest selectivity indices (the ratios between the cytotoxicity and the active dose).

Synthesis of camphecene derivatives using click chemistry methodology and study of their antiviral activity.

A series of seventeen tetrazole derivatives of 1,7,7-trimethyl-[2.2.1]bicycloheptane were synthesized using click chemistry methodology and characterized by spectral data.
