Inhibitory activity of (E)-5-(2-bromovinyl)-2'-deoxyuridine on the salmonid herpesviruses, Oncorhynchus masou virus (OMV) and Herpesvirus salmonis.
The highly potent and selective anti-herpesvirus agent, (E)-5-(2-bromovinyl)-2'deoxyuridine (BVdU), was examined for its inhibitory effect on the salmonid herpesviruses Oncorhynchus masou virus (OMV) and Herpesvirus salmonis (H. salmonis). Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of BVdU for OMV and H. salmonis were 1.25 and 3.0 micrograms/ml, respectively; these values were equal to or higher t...
متن کاملOn the mechanism of selective inhibition of herpesvirus replication by (E)-5-(2-bromovinyl)-2'-deoxyuridine.
Bromovinyldeoxyuridine (BVdUrd) is a potent antiherpesvirus compound with low cytotoxicity. To gain an insight into its selectivity and mechanism of inhibition, we chemically synthesized the 5'-triphosphate of BVdUrd, BVdUTP, and tested its effect on the activities of DNA polymerases [DNA nucleotidyltransferase (DNA directed), EC 2.7.7.7] of two herpesviruses--i.e., herpes simplex virus type 1 ...
متن کاملInhibition of induced chemoresistance by cotreatment with (E)-5-(2-bromovinyl)-2'-deoxyuridine (RP101).
Induced chemoresistance leads to the reduction of apoptotic responses. Although several drugs are in development that circumvent or decrease existing chemoresistance, none has the potential to prevent or reduce its induction. Here, we present data from a drug that could perhaps fill this gap. Cotreatment of chemotherapy with (E)-5-(2-bromovinyl)-2'-deoxyuridine (BVDU, RP101) prevented the decre...
متن کاملInfluence of various experimental conditions on the inhibitory effects of (E)-5-(2-bromovinyl)-2'-deoxyuridine on varicella-zoster virus replication in cell culture.
Inhibition of varicella-zoster virus (VZV) replication by (E)-5-(2-bromovinyl)-2'-deoxyuridine (BVDU) has been examined in vitro under various experimental conditions. The 50% inhibitory dose (ID50) of BVDU for VZV replication in human embryonal fibroblast (HEF) cultures was 0.016 micrograms/ml, if the assay was based on the reduction of visible foci. If the assay was based on the reduction of ...
متن کاملDifferentiation of herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2 by sensitivity to (E)-5-(2-bromovinyl)-2'-deoxyuridine.
Selective inhibition of herpes simplex virus (HSV) type 1 replication but not of HSV type 2 replication by (E)-5-(2-bromovinyl)2'-deoxyuridine (BVDU) was utilized to differentiate clinical isolates of these viruses. BVDU (0.7 microgram/ml) reduced HSV type 1 PFU by an average of 2.74 log10, but had no effect on the plaque-forming ability of HSV type 2 isolates. The incorporation of BVDU into th...
