Title: Ecdysones from Zoanthus spp. with inhibitory activity against dengue virus 2.
Authors: Cheng YB, Lee JC, Lo IW, Chen SR, Hu HC, Wu YH, Wu YC, Chang FR.
Abstract: Bioassay-guided fractionation of an ethanolic extract of Zoanthus spp. collected in Taiwan has resulted in the isolation of one new ecdysone, zoanthone A (1), along with thirteen known compounds (2-14). The structures of these compounds were determined by spectroscopic methods, especially 2D NMR analyses. The in vitro antiviral activities of all isolated ecdysones (1-14) against dengue virus type 2 (DENV-2) were evaluated using DENV infectious system. New compound (1) exhibited potent antiviral activity (EC50=19.61 ± 2.46 μM) with a selectivity index (CC50/EC50) value of 36.7. The structure-activity relationships of isolated ecdysones against DENV-2 were concluded. Molecular docking information of 3 and NS5 polymerase was performed either.
