摘要:
Provided herein are a series of arylmethylidene rhodanine derivatives having broad-spectrum antiviral activity against enveloped viruses, including but not limited to filoviruses, poxviruses, arenaviruses, bunyaviruses, paramyxoviruses, flaviviruses, influenza A, and HIV-1. The compounds act via a novel mechanism to disrupt viral membranes and inhibit viral attachment, fusion, and/or entry into host cells. The membrane disrupting activity of the compounds is selective for viral membranes relative to other biological membranes, making the compounds non-toxic to cells and host subjects.
