Polymerized liposomes containing C-glycosides of sialic acid: Potent inhibitors of influenza virus in vitro infectivity
Abstract
The surface lectin of the influenza virus, hemagglutinin, binds to terminal [alpha]-glycosides of N-acetylneuraminic acid (NeuAc) on cell-surface glycoproteins and glycolipids. Viral binding to cells expression terminal NeuAc residues can be inhibited by [alpha]-O-glycosides of NeuAc (O-sialosides). Recently, dramatic enhancements in the inhibition of viral adhesion to erythrocytes have been achieved using synthetic polyvalent sialosides. In this communication, the authors report that polymerized liposomes containing [alpha]-C-glycosides of sialic acid are potent inhibitors of influenza virus in vitro infectivity. Their results also indicate that the capacity to inhibit hemagglutination does not necessarily reflect the capacity to inhibit in vitro infectivity. 14 refs., 1 tab.
