Antiviral agent 85
Antiviral agent 85 is a broad-spectrum arenavirus entry inhibitor with an EC90 of 0.13 µM against Junín virus (JUNV). Antiviral agent 85 blocks the entry of various arenaviruses through both hTfR1-dependent and hTfR1-independent pathways, acting on the early and early post-entry stages of infection. Antiviral agent 85 exhibits antiviral activity against a variety of arenaviruses, is well tolerated in hTfR1-expressing JUNV-infected mouse models, but fails to provide protective effects. Antiviral agent 85 can be used in studies related to arenavirus hemorrhagic fevers.

Biological Activity
Antiviral agent 85 (Compound 22F) (0.032-100 μM; 3 days) potently inhibits the replication of Junín virus in human lung epithelial A549 cells, with an EC90 of 0.13 μM; it shows no cytotoxicity at concentrations up to 100 μM, with a selectivity index greater than 769[1].
Antiviral agent 85 (10-50 μM; 16.5 h) inhibits the entry of Machupo virus pseudotyped virus into HEK-293T/T17 cells at a concentration of 10 μM, with an inhibition rate of 70%, and shows no significant cytotoxicity[1].
Antiviral agent 85 (2-50 μM; 16 h) potently inhibits the entry of multiple pseudotyped arenaviruses into HEK-293T/T17 cells, including hTfR1-dependent Junín virus, Machupo virus and Guanarito virus, hTfR1-independent Tacaribe virus, as well as α-dystroglycan-dependent Lassa virus, with no significant cytotoxicity[1].
Antiviral agent 85 (50 μM; 3-5 h) inhibits the early stage of Junín virus infection in human lung epithelial cell line A549 when treated at a concentration of 50 μM 1 hour prior to infection. It also reduces viral yield when treated at 2 or 4 hours post-infection, indicating that it exhibits activity in multiple steps associated with viral entry[1].
Antiviral agent 85 (3-7 d) inhibits the replication of Tacaribe virus in A549 cells with an EC90 of 1.7 μM; it inhibits the replication of the same virus in Vero cells with an EC90 of 3.8 μM; it exhibits only weak activity against Pichindé virus in Vero cells with an EC90 of 12 μM; and shows no activity against the unrelated Rift Valley fever virus[1].

Animal Model:hTfR1 knock-in mice (hybrid C57BL/6 and 129 background; 21- to 23-day-old; male and female; Junín virus infection model)[1]
-
Dosage:50 mg/kg; 15.8 mg/kg; 5 mg/kg
-
Administration:i.p.; daily; 10 days
-
Result:Exhibited survival rates similar to or lower than the 50% survival of the CES vehicle placebo group.
Showed dramatic early weight loss with the 50 mg/kg dose, with weight recovery beginning after sick animals succumbed.
Demonstrated more pronounced weight loss with the 15.8 mg/kg dose than with the 5 mg/kg dose or placebo.
Showed no significant improvement in survival or weight gain compared to placebo-treated controls.
