英文摘要
Arenaviruses are responsible for hemorrhagic fevers with high mortality. Effective therapies against
Lassa fever virus (LASV) and Argentine hemorrhagic fever virus (Junin, JUNV) infections are urgently
needed to address public health and national security concerns. Intervention strategies directed at the
arenavirus envelope glycoprotein (GPC) provide a rational basis for the development of novel antiviral
agents. We have recently demonstrated that an interaction between the ectodomains of the GPC fusion
subunit (G2) and the unusual stable signal peptide (SSP) is essential for pH-dependent activation of GPCmediated
membrane fusion. Interestingly, our preliminary results strongly suggest this interaction is targeted
by small-molecule compounds (SIGA Technologies) that act to stabilize the pre-fusion GPC complex against
low pH activation, thereby preventing virus entry. Importantly, a prototype inhibitor ST-193 has been shown
to protect against lethal LASV infection in guinea pigs. We have established a collaboration with SIGA to
capitalize on our knowledge of GPC and these promising lead compounds, in order to identify a broadspectrum
arenavirus therapeutic for clinical development. The specific aims of this proposal are: 1. To
identify and characterize molecular determinants of the SSP-G2 interface that are responsible for the
antiviral activity of SIGA fusion inhibitors. We will examine the contributions of individual sidechains to
membrane-fusion activity and its inhibition. We will explore the role of sequence variation in JUNV and LASV
in imparting species specificity to these compounds. Drug-resistant isolates derived in cell culture will be
used to identify sidechains important for antiviral activity. 2. To characterize structural features of SIGA
inhibitors that contribute to their antiviral activity. We will investigate chemical derivatives of lead
compounds to define structure-activity relationships that determine potency and breadth of inhibition. We will
also capitalize on the structural diversity of four distinct chemical classes of SIGA inhibitors to model a
common pharmacophore using computational methods. 3. To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of
selected inhibitors. Optimized, drug-like compounds will be used in guinea pig models of pre-symptomatic
JUNV and LASV infection to determine therapeutic efficacy. These studies will be important in the selection
of a compound for non-human primate studies in accordance with the FDA Two-Animal Rule for IND filing
and clinical development. This work fits within the RMRCE IRF-Viral Therapeutics, and interacts with RP 3.4.
