Novel Cationic Meso-Arylporphyrins and Their Antiviral Activity against HSV-1

This work is devoted to the search for new antiherpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) drugs among synthetic tetrapyrroles and to an investigation of their antiviral properties under nonphotodynamic conditions. In this study, novel amphiphilic 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-(3-pyridyl-<i>n</i>-propan...

description This work is devoted to the search for new antiherpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) drugs among synthetic tetrapyrroles and to an investigation of their antiviral properties under nonphotodynamic conditions. In this study, novel amphiphilic 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-(3-pyridyl-<i>n</i>-propanoyl)oxyphenyl)porphyrin tetrabromide (<b>3a</b>), 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-(6-pyridyl-<i>n</i>-hexanoyl)oxyphenyl)porphyrin tetrabromide (<b>3b</b>) and known 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(1-methyl-4-pyridinio)porphyrin tetraiodide (<b>TMePyP</b>) were synthesized, and their dark antiviral activity in vitro against HSV-1 was studied. The influence of porphyrin’s nanosized delivery vehicles based on Pluronic F127 on anti-HSV-1 activity was estimated. All the received compounds <b>3a</b>, <b>3b</b> and <b>TMePyP</b> showed virucidal efficiency and had an effect on viral replication stages. The new compound <b>3b</b> showed the highest antiviral activity, close to 100%, with the lowest concentration, while the maximum <b>TMePyP</b> activity was observed with a high concentration; porphyrin <b>3a</b> was the least active. The inclusion of the synthesized compounds in Pluronic F-127 polymeric micelles had a noticeable effect on antiviral activity only at higher porphyrin concentrations. Action of the received compounds differs by influence on the early or later reproduction stages. While <b>3a</b> and <b>TMePyP</b> acted on all stages of the viral replication cycle, porphyrin <b>3b</b> inhibited viral replication during the early stages of infection. The resulting compounds are promising for the development of utilitarian antiviral agents and, possibly, medical antiviral drugs.
