Antivirali

Applications Levovirin is a monocyclic L-nucleosides with type 1 cytokine-inducing activity. Levovirin is the L-enantiomer of Ribavirin (R414475) with similar immunomodulatory activity but does not have direct antiviral activity or hemolytic anemia.

8-epiAtazanavir is a stereoisomer of the antiretroviral drug Atazanavir, which is derived from synthetic sources. It acts as an HIV-1 protease inhibitor, where it binds to the active site of the viral protease enzyme, thereby preventing the cleavage of precursor proteins required for the maturation of infectious viral particles. This interference with viral replication is achieved by the structural mimicry of the natural substrate of the protease, allowing it to competitively inhibit the enzyme's activity.

Lobucavir is an antiviral compound with a mode of action that inhibits viral DNA polymerase. It is used for treating infections caused by herpesviruses and hepatitis B virus.

Viramidine hydrochloride is an antiviral prodrug with action as a precursor to ribavirin, targeting viral RNA synthesis and is used for research on hepatitis C and other viral infections.

Sofosbuvir is an antiviral agent that is used for the treatment of hepatitis C infections and is used in combination with other antiviral agents. This drug is an inhibitor of viral RNA polymerase called non-structural protein 5B (NS5B). As a result, it inhibits viral RNA replication.

Equisetin is a secondary metabolite, which is produced by the fungus *Fusarium equiseti*. It operates predominantly through the inhibition of protein synthesis and interference with cellular processes within target organisms. Equisetin exhibits potent antibacterial and antifungal activities primarily by interfering with cell wall synthesis in bacteria and disrupting key pathways in fungi.

Selective and potent inhibitor of sialidases (neuraminidases) in influenza A and B viruses. The compound binds tightly to the viral neuraminidase active site in late stages of viral life-cycle. It inhibits shedding sialic acids from host cell surface glycans, which interact with viral hemagglutinin, and consequently prevents release of new viral particles from the host cell surface.

Carbovir triphosphate triethylamine is a nucleotide analog, which is a derivative of nucleoside analogs designed for antiviral applications. It is synthesized through chemical modification of guanosine analogs, resulting in its active triphosphate form. This compound functions as a potent antiretroviral agent by mimicking natural nucleotides and interfering with viral DNA synthesis. The active triphosphate impedes the action of viral reverse transcriptase by incorporating itself into the viral DNA chain, causing premature termination and effectively halting viral replication.

Vicriviroc is an investigational pharmaceutical compound, specifically classified as an HIV entry inhibitor. It originates from a synthetic source, designed to target the CCR5 co-receptor on human immune cells. The mode of action involves blocking this co-receptor, thereby preventing the HIV virus from binding and fusing with the host cell membrane. This inhibition effectively obstructs the virus's ability to enter and infect the host cells, particularly those within the chemokine receptor family.

Tromantadine hydrochloride is a synthetic antiviral compound, which is a derivative of adamantane. It originates from chemical synthesis, tailored specifically to target viral processes. Tromantadine hydrochloride primarily exerts its effects by inhibiting the penetration of virus particles into host cells and impeding the subsequent stages of viral replication. This mode of action effectively reduces the viral load and hinders the progression of the infection.

Vicriviroc malate is a CCR5 antagonist with action on blocking HIV entry into cells by targeting the CCR5 receptor and is used for research on HIV treatment.
