Published: September 2008

The synthesis and SAR of a series of 60 substituted 2-phenoxy-5-nitrobenzonitriles (analogues of MDL-860) as inhibitors of enterovirus replication (in particular of coxsackievirus B3 (CVB 3)) are reported. Several of the analogues inhibited CVB 3 and other enteroviruses at low-micromolar concentrations.

Article Synopsis
  • Group B Coxsackieviruses (CVB) can lead to myocarditis and potentially cardiomyopathy, but there's currently no effective antiviral treatment available.
  • The study investigates the effects of N-acetylcysteine (NAC), an antioxidant, which was found to significantly reduce viral replication and cardiac injury caused by CVB3.
  • The research reveals that NAC downregulates a specific protein, eEF1A1, that facilitates viral replication in infected cells, and promotes its degradation through autophagy, contributing to its antiviral effects.

Coxsackievirus B (CVB) infection of pancreatic β cells is associated with β cell autoimmunity and type 1 diabetes. We investigated how CVB affects human β cells and anti-CVB T cell responses. β cells were efficiently infected by CVB in vitro, down-regulated human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I, and presented few, selected HLA-bound viral peptides.

Aims/hypothesis: Infection with coxsackie B viruses (CVBs) can cause diseases ranging from mild common cold-type symptoms to severe life-threatening conditions. CVB infections are considered to be prime candidates for environmental triggers of type 1 diabetes. This, together with the significant disease burden of acute CVB infections and their association with chronic diseases other than diabetes, has prompted the development of human CVB vaccines.

Viral myocarditis caused by Coxsackievirus B (CVB) infection is a severe inflammatory disease of the myocardium, which may develop to cardiomyopathy and heart failure. No effective specific treatment is available. Our previous study demonstrated that suppression of proinflammatory caspase-1 activation effectively inhibited CVB replication.
