Viruses are sub-microscopic obligatory intracellular
parasites consisting either of DNA or RNA and a
protein coat.
They lack both the cell wall and the cell membrane
and do not carry out metabolic processes.
Viruses possess only few or none of the enzymes
involved in replication. Therefore, viruses need a host
cell to utilise its enzymatic activity for their
replication, existence and growth
![Page 3: Amantadine](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/568135da550346895d9d4aa2/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
1) DNA viruses : e.g. the adenoviruses that
cause acute respiratory diseases; herpes
simplex, chickenpox and varicella zoster
viruses
2) RNA viruses: e.g. the causative agent of
encephalitis, respiratory illness, influenza,
diarrhoea and AIDS (caused by retroviruses).
![Page 4: Amantadine](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/568135da550346895d9d4aa2/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Antiviral chemotherapeutics are substances used in
the treatment and prophylaxis of diseases caused by
viruses.
The primary indications for the use of antiviral drugs
in ophthalmology are viral keratitis, herpes zoster
ophthalmicus, and retinitis Viral conjunctivitis
caused by adenoviruses
The action of antiviral agents might involve the
penetration and uncoating or any other process in
the replication of the virus.

Amantadine
The mode of action:
appears to involve the inhibition of uncoating of the RNA virus; thereby blocking the transfer of viral RNA
into the host cell. It may also involve prevention of penetrations of the intact virus into the host cell
NH2 .HCl
1-Adamantanamine hydrochloride
• Adamantane derivatives are uniquely configured tricyclic amines.
• They are useful for prevention but not treatment of influenza caused by influenza A virus.

They have close structural similarity with the natural metabolites.
They are designed via structural modification of these natural metabolites
They interfere with the normal metabolic processes and/or inhibit the enzymes involved in these processes.
considered as bioprecursor pordrugs as they have to be activated in vivo.
They should be phosphorylated inside infected cell.
The main mechanism of action involve inhibition of the viral DNA synthesis, by inhibiting DNA polymerase or by
incorporating itself into the DNA chain, impairing its elongation.
They can be seen chemically as either pyrimidine or purine analogues

• Due to poor GIT absorption, a bioprecursor of acyclovir was designed:-
Desciclovir (lacks the 4-oxo substitution): has more
lipophilic properties that allow better bioavailability and is converted in vivo by xanthine oxidase to acyclovir.
Valacyclovir (l-valyl ester): 3-4 times higher
bioavailability than acyclovir. It is converted in vivo into acyclovir.

Interferons (IFNs) are potent cytokines that possess antiviral, immunomodulating, and antiproliferative actions
synthesized by cells in response to various inducers and in turn cause biochemical changes leading to an antiviral state in cells of the same species
Three major classes of human interferons with significant antiviral activity currently are recognized: alpha (>24 individual species), beta, and gamma(has less antiviral activity but more potent immunoregulatory effects ).
Interferon biological activity usually is measured in terms of antiviral effects in cell culture and generally is expressed as international units (IU) relative to reference standards.
![Page 26: Amantadine](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/568135da550346895d9d4aa2/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

These agents can be broadly divided into three
major classes on the basis of enzymes or processes
that they inhibit.
1) Enzymes inhibitors (reverse transcriptase
(The retroviral reverse transcriptase (RT) is an enzyme
that is vital for replication of the AIDS virus. ), protease
or glucosidase).
2) Viral processes inhibitors. (binding, or
uncoating)
3) The expression of genes or gene products
inhibitors.

• The HIV-1 protease is an aspartate proteinase that is essential for the final step of viral proliferation.
• It elicits its action at a post‑integration stage before or during viral budding.
• The retroviral protease cleaves the viral precursor polyprotein gp 160 into proteins that make up the mature viron; i.e. it hydrolytically attacks the precursor protein to generate proteins, which are necessary for the virus.
• The HIV protease inhibitors interfere in this process and leads to the assembly of nonfunctional virions.
• Saquinavir (1995), Indinavir (1996), Ritonavir (1996), Nelfinavir (1997) and Amprenavir (1999). They are frequently used in combination with Zidovudine and Lamivudine.

In the processing stage before viral budding, the
viral envelope protein gp 120 is heavily
N‑glycosylated, and is followed by a process of
sugar trimming by a group of glucosidase and
mannosidase.
Enzymes trimming are vital for maturation and
ineffectively of the virus.
Therefore, inhibitors that inactivate the
glucosidase enzymes have the potential of
arresting viral replication.

Antisense technology is a novel drug discovery method.
Antisense drugs work at the genetic level to interrupt the process by which disease-causing proteins are produced.
An oligonucleotide is designed to be complimentary to a specific nucleotide sequence in a gene, a gene product, or a protein of mRNA. Once administrated, oligonucleotide is expected to seek the target site, hybridise with it; and thereby inhibit the normal function of the particular segment.
![Page 43: Amantadine](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/568135da550346895d9d4aa2/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Almost all human diseases are the result of
inadequate or inappropriate production or
disordered performance of proteins
Traditional drugs are designed to interact with
protein molecules throughout the body that
support or cause diseases.
Antisense drugs are designed to inhibit the
production of disease‑causing proteins
![Page 44: Amantadine](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/568135da550346895d9d4aa2/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Antisense molecules designed precisely on the
basis of the genetic code bind specifically with
the messenger RNA and effectively overcome its
genetic signal, thereby preventing the production
of disease‑associated proteins.
They can be designed to treat a wide range of
diseases including infectious, inflammatory and
cardiovascular diseases and cancer and have the
potential to be more selective and, as a result,
more effective and less toxic than traditional
drugs.

Chemistry of Oligonucleotides Antisense Oligonucleotides are short, synthetic,
single strands of DNA or DNA analogs called oligodeoxyribonucleotides, that are complimentary, or antisense to target sequence (DNA or RNA), which exhibit sequences ‑ specific binding to RNA targets within the cell.
The RNA‑DNA complex, which interacts by classic Watson‑Crick base pairing, can interfere with translation of mRNA in one of several ways.
They are designed to stop a biological event such as transcription, translation or splicing.

Neuraminidase Inhibitors
• Neuraminidase has functions that aid in the efficiency of virus release from cells.
• Neuraminidase cleaves terminal sialic acid residues from carbohydrate moieties on the surfaces of infected cells.
• This promotes the release of progeny viruses from infected cells.
![Page 50: Amantadine](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/568135da550346895d9d4aa2/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Neuraminidase Inhibitors
• Neuraminidase also cleaves sialic acid residues from viral proteins, preventing aggregation of viruses.
• Administration of chemical inhibitors of
neuraminidase is a treatment that limits the severity and spread of viral infections.

Neuraminidase Inhibitors
• Act by inhibition of neuraminidase enzyme.
• Mode of action relies on blocking the function of viral neuraminidase protein, thus preventing the virus from budding from the host cell.
• Oseltamivir, Zanamivir and Peramivir belong to this class.
