Abstract
Four novel terminal modified antisense oligonucleotides (ODNs) were designed, synthesized and tested for their anti-influenza virus activity. Initial biological studies indicated that lipophilic and rimantadin emodificated Flutide exhibited more potent anti-H1N1 activity than Flutide. Among them, lipophilic modificated ODN (Flutide-I) showed the most antiviral activity. The EC50 value of Flutide-I for inhibiting H1N1 induced cytopathic effect (CPE) and H1N1 RNA were respectively (0.26 ± 0.16) μM and (0.11 ± 0.03) μM. The cytotoxicity of these compounds has also been assessed. No significant cytotoxicities were found for any of these compounds with the concentrations up to 20 μM.
