Uses
DBPR110 is a nonstructural protein 5A (NS5A) inhibitor with inhibitory activity against hepatitis C virus (HCV). DBPR110 exhibited a 50% effective concentration (EC50) of 3.9 ± 0.9 pM and a selectivity index value of over 12,800,000 by reducing HCV1b replicon reporter expression. DBPR110 also effectively reduced the activity of HCV2a replicon with an EC50 of 228.8 pM and a selectivity index value of over 173,130. DBPR110 showed synergy with interferon alpha (IFN-α), NS3 protease inhibitors, and NS5B polymerase inhibitors. The results of DBPR110 suggest that it may be an effective small molecule inhibitor against HCV NS5A[1].
