Modifications on the heterocyclic base of ganciclovir,penciclovir, acyclovir - syntheses and antiviral properties

АBSTRACT

Esters of the antiherpetic drugs ganciclovir, penciclovir with the bile acids (cholic, chenodeoxycholic and deoxycholic) and amino acid esters of acyclovir were generated and evaluated for their in vitro antiviral activity against herpes simplex viruses type 1 and type 2 (HSV-1, HSV-2). The antiviral assays demonstrated that modified analogs of ACV and PCV are less active compared to the initial substances against HSV-1and HSV-2. CC50 for ganciclovir-deoxycholate corresponded to the CC50 of the other analogs and its activity is lower than ganciclovir. Obtained results show that tested modification do not improve bioavailability of nucleoside analogs in cells.
