The outbreak of COVID-19 has become a public health emergency of international concern; thus, it is important to not only develop drugs for treating COVID-19 but also develop a method for evaluating the therapeutic effect based on the charac- teristics of SARS-CoV-2 and its variants. To test the antiviral activity of a drug against COVID-19, in this study, we established and compared experimental conditions, such as the treatment time and mode of action (dose) of the thera- peutic substance, and a test method to evaluate its effectiveness. We optimized an assay for testing antiviral activity by plaque reduction, tissue culture infectious dose 50, and quantitative RT-PCR. These methods were applied to test the antiviral efficacy of the therapeutic against SARS-CoV-2. Antiviral activity testing using in vitro assays against SARS-CoV-2 and its variants was assessed by measuring plaque-reducing or cytopathic effects in Vero-E6 cells. The in vitro assay was validated by evaluating the antiviral activity of remdesivir. Remdesivir reduced SARS-CoV-2 titer without detectable cytotoxicity and successfully inhibited viral replication in a dose-dependent manner. Therefore, we suggest this in vitro assay as an effective method for testing the antiviral activity for a potential repurposed drug against COVID-19 or rapid screening of therapeutic candidates.

Antiviral Activity Against SARS-CoV-2 Variants Using in Silico and in Vitro Approaches

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) emergence in 2019 led to global health crises and the persistent risk of viral mutations. To combat SARS-CoV-2 variants, researchers have explored new approaches to identifying potential targets for coronaviruses. This study aimed to identify SARS-CoV-2 inhibitors using drug repurposing. In silico studies and network pharmacology were conducted to validate targets and coronavirus-associated diseases to select potential candidates, and in vitro assays were performed to evaluate the antiviral effects of the candidate drugs to elucidate the mechanisms of the viruses at the molecular level and determine the effective antiviral drugs for them. Plaque and cytopathic effect reduction were evaluated, and real-time quantitative reverse transcription was used to evaluate the antiviral activity of the candidate drugs against SARS-CoV-2 variants in vitro. Finally, a comparison was made between the molecular docking binding affinities of fenofibrate and remdesivir (positive control) to conventional and identified targets validated from protein–protein interaction (PPI). Seven candidate drugs were obtained based on the biological targets of the coronavirus, and potential targets were identified by constructing complex disease targets and PPI networks. Among the candidates, fenofibrate exhibited the strongest inhibition effect 1 h after Vero E6 cell infection with SARS-CoV-2 variants. This study identified potential targets for coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and SARS-CoV-2 and suggested fenofibrate as a potential therapy for COVID-19.

Most cervical cancers are associated with high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. Currently, cervical cancer treatment entails surgical removal of the lesion, but treatment of infection and preventing tissue damage are issues that still remain to be addressed. Herbal medicine and biological studies have focused on developing antiviral drugs from natural sources. In this study, we analyzed the potential antiviral effects of Pinus densiflora Sieb. et Zucc. leaf extracts against HPV. The pine needle extracts from each organic solvent were analyzed for antiviral activity. The methylene chloride fraction (PN-MC) showed the highest activity against HPV pseudovirus (PV). The PN-MC extract was more effective before, rather than after treatment, and therefore represents a prophylactic intervention. Mice were pre-treated with PN-MC via genital application or oral administration, followed by a genital or subcutaneous challenge with HPV PV, respectively. The HPV challenge results showed that mice treated via genital application exhibited complete protection against HPV. In conclusion, PN-MC represents a potential topical virucide for HPV infection.

Various types of vaccines have been developed against COVID-19, including vector vaccines. Among the COVID-19 vaccines, AstraZeneca’s chimpanzee adenoviral vaccine was the first to be commercialized. For viral vector vaccines, biodistribution studies are critical to vaccine safety, gene delivery, and efficacy. This study compared the biodistribution of the baculoviral vector vaccine (AcHERV-COVID19) and the adenoviral vector vaccine (Ad-COVID19). Both vaccines were administered intramuscularly to mice, and the distribution of the SARS-CoV-2 S gene in each tissue was evaluated for up to 30 days. After vaccination, serum and various tissue samples were collected from the mice at each time point, and IgG levels and DNA copy numbers were measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and a quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. AcHERV-COVID19 and Ad-COVID19 distribution showed that the SARS-CoV-2 spike gene remained predominantly at the injection site in the mouse muscle. In kidney, liver, and spleen tissues, the AcHERV-COVID19 group showed about 2– 4 times higher persistence of the SARS-CoV-2 spike gene than the Ad-COVID19 group. The distribution patterns of AcHERV-COVID19 and Ad-COVID19 within various organs highlight their contrasting biodistribution profiles, with AcHERV-COVID19 exhibiting a broader and prolonged presence in the body compared to Ad-COVID19. Understanding the biodistribution profile of AcHERV-COVID19 and Ad-COVID19 could help select viral vectors for future vaccine development.
