Two new 2-(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-benzimidazole derivatives, namely, 2-(4-phenoxypyridin-2-yl)-1H-benzimidazole, CHNO, and 2-[4-(4-fluorophenoxy)pyridin-2-yl]-1H-benzimidazole, CHFNO, were synthesized and characterized by NMR spectroscopy. Crystal structure, biological activity and ADME analyses were performed for these two new compounds and a third compound, namely, 5,6-dimethyl-2-[4-(4-phenylpiperazin-1-yl)pyridin-2-yl]-1H-benzimidazole methanol monosolvate, CHN·CHOH, the synthesis of which had been described previously. All three compounds have a similar chain hydrogen-bonding pattern. One of them (the fluorophenoxy derivative) showed good antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive bacteria. The ADME analysis indicates that the compounds could be good drug candidates.

Coinfections with porcine circovirus types 2, 3, and 4 (PCV2, PCV3, and PCV4) are increasingly being detected in the swine industry. However, there is no commercially available vaccine which prevents coinfection with PCV2, PCV3, and PCV4. The development of a vaccine expressing capsid (Cap) fusion proteins of multiple PCVs represents a promising approach for broadly preventing infection with PCVs.

The Moscow strain effectively infects and replicates within human melanoma cell lines and primary glioblastoma cells, while sparing non-malignant human cells. Infection leads to the selective destruction of neoplastic cells, mediated by functional viral replication.

Achieving the precise targeting of lentiviral vectors (LVs) to specific cell populations is crucial for effective gene therapy, particularly in cancer treatment where the modulation of the tumor microenvironment can enhance anti-tumor immunity. Programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) is overexpressed on activated tumor-infiltrating T lymphocytes, including regulatory T cells that suppress immune responses via FOXP3 expression. We developed PD1-targeted LVs by incorporating the anti-PD1 nanobody nb102c3 into receptor-blinded measles virus H and VSV-G glycoproteins.

Ebola virus (EBOV) causes severe disease in humans, with mortality as high as 90%. The small-molecule antiviral drug remdesivir (RDV) has demonstrated a survival benefit in EBOV-exposed rhesus macaques. Here, we characterize the efficacy of multiple intravenous RDV dosing regimens on survival of rhesus macaques 42 days after intramuscular EBOV exposure.

This study investigated a library of known and novel glycyrrhizic acid (GL) conjugates with amino acids and dipeptide esters, as inhibitors of the DENV NS2B-NS3 protease. We utilized docking algorithms to evaluate the interactions of these GL derivatives with key residues (His51, Asp75, Ser135, and Gly153) within 10 Å of the DENV-2 NS2B-NS3 protease binding pocket (PDB ID: 2FOM). It was found that compounds and exhibited unique binding patterns, forming hydrogen bonds with Asp75, Tyr150, and Gly153.
