MI-1851 

MI-1851 is a potent furin inhibitor. MI-1851 prevents the proteolytic processing of the S protein of SARS-CoV-2 by endogenous flavoprotease in HEK293 cells. MI-185 has antiviral activity^[1][2].

MI-1851 (0-100 μM, 2h, 24 h) does not affect PHH cells viability, and extracellular hydrogen peroxide production even at 100 μM but reduces CYP3A4 isoenzyme activity in PHH cells in a dose-dependent manner^[1].
MI-1851 (10-50 μM, 72 h) strongly inhibits the spread of SARS-CoV-2 and its proliferation in Calu-3 cells even at a low dose of 10 μM, which reduces the virus titer by 30 to 190-fold^[2].
MI-1851 (compound 8) (0.5-16 μM, 48 h) inhibits DENV-2 and WNV replication with the EC₅₀ values of 1.50 μM and 1.46 μM, respectively in huh-7 cells^[3].
