In Vitro
Plitidepsin (20 nM; 1 h) induces a dose-dependent decrease in VEGF secretion in MOLT-4 cells[1]. Plitidepsin (20 nM; 1 h) does not result in significant inhibition of VEGF-R1 mRNA in normal endothelial cells, which do express VEGFR-1 but do not secrete VEGF[1]. Plitidepsin inhibits SARS-CoV-2 with an IC90 of 1.76 nM. In hACE2-293T cells, Plitidepsin exhibits anti-SARS-CoV-2 activity with an IC90 of 0.88 nM. In an established model of human pneumocyte-like cells, Plitidepsin inhibits SARS-CoV-2 replication with an IC90 of 3.14 nM and a selectivity index of 40.4[1].

Plitidepsin purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: bioRxiv. 2025 February 27.
Cells were infected for 2 h with rHRSV-mCherry at MOI 0.2 and the medium was then replaced to incubate cells in the presence of serial dilutions of Plitidepsin for 48 h (red curve). The viral replication was quantified by measurement of the mCherry fluorescence. In parallel, cell viability upon treatment with Plitidepsin was quantified in non-infected HEp-2 cells (black curve). Plitidepsin inhibited rHRSV197 mCherry replication in a dose-dependent manner, with an IC50 of 3.5 nM.

BSRT7 cells were transfected with the complete minigenome system or with the pEGFP plasmid coding for EGFP. Six hours later, the transfection mix was removed and medium containing Plitidepsin at different concentrations was added. Then, 24 h post-transfection, cells were lysed and analyzed by Western blotting using anti-N, anti-GFP or anti-alpha tubulin antibodies.

BSRT7/5 cells were transfected with plasmids encoding the N, P, M2–1, and L proteins; the pMT/Luc minigenome, together with pCMV-beta-gal for transfection standardization. Serial dilutions of Plitidepsin were added 6 h post-transfection after removing transfection reagents. Viral RNA synthesis was quantified by measuring the luciferase activity after cell lysis 24 h post-transfection. Each luciferase minigenome activity value was normalized based on DMSO treated cells and is the average of three independent experiments performed in triplicate. Error bars represent standard deviations calculated based on three independent experiments made in triplicate.

Protocol

Research Protocol for Infectious Diseases
Infectious-disease experiments test how pathogens interact with host barriers, innate immune receptors, inflammatory signaling, pathogen replication, and tissue injury; pattern-recognition receptors such as TLRs, RIG-I-like receptors, NOD-like receptors, and inflammasomes detect microbial molecules and activate NF-κB, interferon, and cytokine responses. The central hypothesis is that infection severity reflects the balance between pathogen burden and host response: protective inflammation restricts pathogen growth, whereas excessive or mislocalized inflammation contributes to tissue damage and disease phenotype. Unresolved questions include which host pathways are protective versus pathogenic, why some infection models fail to translate to human disease, and which combined readouts best predict clinically relevant infection outcomes.
