Beta-2'-C-methyl purines (1, 2) are known inhibitors of hepatitis C virus (HCV). We herein report the synthesis, biological and enzymatic evaluation of their 5'-phosphoramidate ProTides. Described herein are seven l-alanine phosphoramidate derivatives with variations to the amino acid ester. The 1-naphthyl phosphoramidate of beta-2'-methylguanosine containing the benzyl ester (20) was the most active at 0.12microM, an 84-fold of increase in activity compared to the parent nucleoside (2) with no increase of cytotoxicity. The carboxypeptidase mediated hydrolysis of several ProTides showed a predictive correlation with their activity versus HCV in replicon.

Background: Muscle depletion (MD) is a critical factor that influences clinical outcomes in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Although its role in cancer prognosis is recognized, its integration into widely used prognostic systems remains underexplored. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic impact of MD on overall survival (OS) in HCC patients and to improve existing noninvasive prognostic models by incorporating MD-related metrics.

Foodborne viruses are significant contributors to global food safety incidents, posing a serious burden on human health and food safety. In this study, a multiplex reverse transcription-droplet digital PCR (RT-ddPCR) assay based on the MS2 phage as a process control virus (PCV) was developed to achieve the simultaneous detection of hepatitis A virus (HAV) and hepatitis E virus (HEV) in bivalve shellfish. By optimizing the reaction system and procedures, the best reaction conditions were selected, and the specificity, sensitivity, and reproducibility of the method were assessed.
