Activity Information


Target Organism  HSV

Assay 

Activity 

  • [Ref.29483113]Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1):viral titer inhibition on Vero cells(IC50=2.507 μg/ml);inhibition of HSV-1 replication in HeLa S3 cells(IC50=93 μg/ml);inhibition of HSV-1 replication in HEK-293 cells(IC50=84 μg/ml).

Hemolytic Activity  No hemolysis information or data found in the reference(s) presented in this entry

Cytotoxicity 

  • [Ref.29483113]Vero cells:CC50=90.4μg/ml;
  • no toxicity was observed at concentrations as high as 50 μg/ml against HeLa S3 and HEK-293 cells.

Binding Target  envelope

Mechanism  Temporin B could disrupt the envelope of virus,and partially affected different stages of the HSV-1 life cycle, including the attachment and the entry of the virus into the host cell, as well as the subsequent postinfection phase.
