Abstract Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has quickly spread worldwide and affected more than 10 million individuals. A typical feature of COVID-19 is the suppression type I III interferon (IFN)-mediated antiviral immunity. However, molecular mechanism which SARS-CoV-2 evades immunity remains elusive. Here, we reported that membrane (M) protein inhibits production IFNs induced cytosolic dsRNA-sensing pathway mediated...

Abstract As a highly pathogenic human coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2 has to counteract an intricate network of antiviral host responses establish infection and spread. The nucleic acid-induced stress response is essential component defense closely related innate immunity. However, whether regulates the pathway achieve immune evasion remains elusive. In this study, NSP5 N protein were found attenuate granule (avSG) formation. Moreover, suppressed IFN expression induced by Sendai virus or...
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is now pandemic. Targeting HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (HIV-1 RT) has been considered as one of the most successful targets for development anti-HIV treatment. Among RT inhibitors, non-nucleoside inhibitors (NNRTIs) have gained a definitive place due to their unique antiviral potency, high specificity, and low toxicity in antiretroviral combination therapies used treat HIV. Until now, >50 structurally diverse classes compounds reported NNRTIs....

We designed and synthesized a series of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) with piperidine-substituted thiophene[3,2-d]pyrimidine scaffold, employing strategy structure-based molecular hybridization substituent decorating. Most the compounds exhibited broad-spectrum activity low (single-digit) nanomolar EC50 values toward panel wild-type (WT), single-mutant, double-mutant HIV-1 strains. Compound 27 was most potent; compared...
To address drug resistance to HIV-1 non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs), a series of novel diarylpyrimidine (DAPY) derivatives targeting "tolerant region I" and II" the NNRTIs binding pocket (NNIBP) were designed utilizing structure-guided scaffold-hopping strategy. The dihydrofuro[3,4-d]pyrimidine 13c2 13c4 proved be exceptionally potent against wide range strains carrying single NNRTI-resistant mutations (EC50 = 0.9–8.4 nM), which remarkably superior that etravirine...
The continuous spread of SARS-CoV-2 calls for more direct-acting antiviral agents to combat the highly infectious variants. main protease (Mpro) is an promising target anti-SARS-CoV-2 drug design. Here, we report discovery potent non-covalent non-peptide Mpro inhibitors featuring a 1,2,4-trisubstituted piperazine scaffold. We systematically modified hit MCULE-5948770040 by structure-based rational design combined with multi-site binding and privileged structure assembly strategies. optimized...
Currently, HIV-1 non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) are a major component of the highly active anti-retroviral therapy (HAART) regimen. However, occurrence drug-resistant strains and adverse reactions after long-term usage have inevitably compromised clinical application NNRTIs. Therefore, development novel with distinct anti-resistance profiles better pharmacological properties is still an enormous challenge. Herein, we summarize state-of-the-art medicinal chemistry...
N-Methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptors, a subtype of ionotropic glutamate receptors in the central nervous system (CNS), have garnered attention for their role brain disorders. Specifically, GluN2A-containing NMDA emerged as potential therapeutic target treatment depressive disorders and epilepsy. However, development receptor-selective antagonists, represented by N-(4-(2-benzoylhydrazine-1-carbonyl)benzyl)-3-chloro-4-fluorobenzenesulfonamide (TCN-201) its derivatives, faces significant...
