Compound A, a dissociated glucocorticoid receptor modulator, reduces dengue virus-induced cytokine secretion and dengue virus production.

Abstract:

:Dengue Virus (DENV) infection is an important mosquito-borne viral disease and its clinical symptoms range from a predominantly febrile disease, dengue fever (DF), to dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) and dengue shock syndrome (DSS). Increased levels of cytokines - the so-called 'cytokine storm', contribute to the pathogenesis of DHF/DSS. In this study, we compared the expression of cytokine genes between mock-infected and DENV-infected HepG2 cells using a real-time PCR array and revealed several up-regulated chemokines and cytokines, including CXCL10 and TNF-α. Compound A (CpdA), a plant-derived phenyl aziridine precursor containing anti-inflammatory action and acting as a dissociated nonsteroidal glucocorticoid receptor modulator, was selected as a candidate agent to modulate secretion of DENV-induced cytokines. CpdA is not a glucocorticoid but has an anti-inflammatory effect with no metabolic side effects as steroidal ligands. CpdA significantly reduced DENV-induced CXCL10 and TNF-α secretion and decreased leukocyte migration indicating for the first time the therapeutic potential of CpdA in decreasing massive immune activation during DENV infection.

  • Determining the 3D structure of human ASC2 protein involved in apoptosis and inflammation.

    abstract::ASC2 structure has been well defined by 1141 NOE experimental restraints. The model consists of five alpha helices. alpha-Helices are connected by short random structure loops. The sole exception is the loop connecting helices 2 and 3, which has a 20-residue length. Folding generally agrees with the folding of recentl...
