Description

Zanamivir is an influenza viral neuraminidase inhibitor with IC50 values of 0.95 nM and 2.7 nM for influenza A and B, respectively.

IC50 & Target

IC50: 0.95 nM (Influenza A); 2.7 nM (Influenza B)[1]

In Vitro

Zanamivir interacts with a group of amino acids in the active site of neuraminidase, which are conserved in all influenza A and B strains. Zanamivir blocks the action of neuraminidase, which prevents the cleavage of sialic acid on the cell receptors, thus preventing release and spread of the newly formed virions[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

Zanamivir has a poor bioavailability in oral administration, with only 4–17% of the agent. Oral delivery of zanamivir has been a problem due to its strong hydrophilic nature that limits its transport across the intestinal epithelium. Permeation enhancers such as sodium cholate, hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrin could be used with zanamivir to enhance the intestinal permeability[3].

Animal Administration
[3]

Rats: Formulations PO-SC (Zanamivir with SC for p.o.) and PO-C (Zanamivir control solution for p.o.) are administered orally at a Zanamivir dose of 10 mg/kg, and IV-R (reference Zanamivir saline solution for i.v.) is administered i.v. at a dose of 1 mg/kg to rats under conscious condition. Blood samples are collected prior to and at 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 24 hr after administration. At each sampling point, three rats from each group are sacrificed after blood collection to extract the lungs. The lungs are cleansed with saline after extraction of lungs from the rats through a chest incision. The lungs are then transferred into E-tube and stored in the freezer (-80°C) until analysis. Plasma samples are harvested by centrifugation at 1,500 × g for 10 min and stored at -20°C until analysis. The analysis of Zanamivir in both plasma and lungs is performed using before-mentioned LC-MS/MS method[3].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
