Antiviral Activity of Benzimidazole Derivatives. IV. Bisbenzimidazole Derivatives.(2)

Antiviral activity of benzimidazole derivatives. II. Antiviral activity of 2-phenylbenzimidazole derivatives.

Seventy-six 2-phenylbenzimidazole derivatives were synthesized and evaluated in cell-based assays for cytotoxicity and antiviral activity against a panel of 10 RNA and DNA viruses. The most commonly affected viruses were, in decreasing order, CVB-2, BVDV, Sb-1, HSV-1, and YFV, while HIV-1 and VSV were not affected, and RSV, VV and Reo-1 were only susceptible to a few compounds. Thirty-nine comp...

Mutagenicity of bisbenzimidazole derivatives.

The mutagenicities of 2,2'-(di-3-hydroxyphenyl)-1H,1H'-[5,5']-bisbenzimidazole, 2,2'-(di-4-hydroxyphenyl)-1H,1H'-[5,5']-bisbenzimidazole, 2,2'-(di-3-methoxyphenyl)-1H,1H'-[5,5']-bisbenzimidazole, 2,2'-bis-(4-nitrophenyl)-1H,1H'-[5,5']-bisbenzimidazole, 2,2'-bis-(3-nitrophenyl)-1H,1H'-[5,5']-bisbenzimidazole, 2,2'-bis-(4-methylphenyl)-1H,1H'-[5,5']-bisbenzimidazole, 2,2'-(di-4-methoxyphenyl)-1H,...

Antiproliferative activity of new benzimidazole derivatives.

A series of new benzimidazole derivatives were synthesized and tested in vitro for possible anticancer activity. Their effect of proliferation into selected tumor cell lines at normoxia and hypoxia conditions was determined by WST-1 test. Additionally, apoptosis test (caspase 3/7 assay) was used to check the mode caused by the agents of cell death. Four of the examined compounds (7, 8, 13, 11) ...

Antiviral activity of some hydroxycoumarin derivatives.

Esculetin (6,7-dihydroxycoumarin) and its diacetate exhibited a marked inhibitory effect on Newcastle disease virus replication in cell cultures at concentrations of 36 microM and 62 microM, respectively. These compounds were selected from ten hydroxycoumarin derivatives through an in vitro antiviral screen involving viruses of the picorna-, orthomyxo-, paramyxo-, and herpes virus families.
