Activity Information
Target Organism DENV
Assay Antiviral assays(Cell protection assay, Direct virus inhibition assay, Post-infection assay, Viral attachment assay, Viral entry assay)
Activity [Ref.36739680]peptide 3 showed the most promising cell protection effects against DENV-1 (60.28%), DENV(36.23%), DENV-3 (73.85%), and DENV-4 (64.84%) at 200 μM. The IC50 of the cell protection effects of peptide 3 against DENV-3 was determined to be 182.27 μM; peptide 3 demonstrated the most promising antiviral activity during post-infection with good inhibitions of DENV-2 (69.05%) and DENV-3 (61.35%) whereas lower inhibitions were observed against DENV-1 (48.47%) and DENV-4 (34.72%) at 200 μM; Peptide 3 showed the highest inhibitions of plaque formations by DENV-2 (69.05%) and DENV-3 (61.35%); Peptide 3 reduced the RNA copy numbers of DENV-2 and DENV-3 by 43.83% and 50.72%, DENV-1 (31.85%); peptide 3 inhibited DENV-4 attachment to Vero cells by 39.58% but almost no inhibition was observed against DENV-1 (7.62%) and DENV-3 (2.56%).
Hemolytic Activity No hemolysis information or data found in the reference(s) presented in this entry
Cytotoxicity
Binding Target Not found
Mechanism It is possible that peptide 3 inhibited DENV-2 by inhibiting the virus particle itself and this was supported by the observation that peptide 3 showed good direct virus-inactivating effects against DENV-2.
