Synthesis and Inhibition of Influenza H1N1 Virus by Propargylaminoalkyl Derivative of Lithocholic Acid
Abstract
In the current study, the conjugate of 3-oxo-lithocholic acid with N-methylpiperazine and paraform was synthesized using the Mannich reaction and evaluated for antiviral activity. This modification resulted in a dramatic increase of antiviral activity combined with a two-fold decrease of toxicity. Together, these effects led to a strong increase of selectivity of compound (SI = 40 vs. 3 for 3 and 2, correspondingly).
