Treatment of rabies in mice and foxes with antiviral compounds.

Abstract:

:Thirty four chemical compounds were injected into rabies infected mice by intramuscular (i.m.) route. Twenty four compounds such as well known therapeutic agents: amantadine, lipacids, phenol compounds, didemnin-B, procaine, nucleosides analogues (ribavirin, tiazofurin, pyrazofurin) had no effect. Two compounds had a slight effect not justifying to consider them as possible therapeutic agents: selenazofurin and an analogue of ribavirin (RTA). Eight heteropolyanions (HPA), which have a related chemical structure, were efficient providing 100% protection. Nineteen compounds were injected into rabies infected mice by the intracerebral (i.c.) route. Fourteen compounds such as ribavirin, RTA, selenazofurin, tiazofurin and 9 HPA compounds had no effect. Five other HPA compounds (HPA 23-39-46-51-56) were efficient preventing the development of clinical infection in some mice. Whatever was the treatment route, treated surviving mice developed rabies neutralizing antibodies. No proof of viral multiplication was found in their brains. As some HPA compounds did produce a therapeutic effect in mice, two of them HPA 23 and HPA 39 were administered to rabies-infected foxes. In foxes the compounds prolonged the mean survival time and increased the number of survivors. These data suggest that chemotherapy might be worthwhile when vaccination was impossible.
