▼ Influenza A and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) are both enveloped, negative strand
RNA viruses which infect the respiratory mucosa of animals and humans. Despite
decades of research and development of
antivirals and vaccines, both of these viruses
continue to be a major health concern throughout the world. The focus of my research
was to examine alternative ways of developing antiviral which would be both faster and
more effective than conventional methods of screening libraries of compounds. By
examining the nucleotide sequences of influenza A virus my colleagues and I were able
to determine conserved regions as candidates for antisense drug targets. Lead antisense
compounds were effective at inhibiting influenza A virus replication in a Balb/C mouse
model. Although resistance was observed in some strains, a combination of antisense
targeting multiple conserved regions was effective. One limitation of the antisense used
in these experiments was their inability to inhibit virus replication when administered more than 2h after infection. For RSV, I examined the potential of targeting a cellular
protein (ubiquitin) thought to interact with and be required for RSV replication. I utilized
currently available drugs to interfere with ubiquitin recycling through the proteasome.
Treatment with proteasome inhibitors reduced virus replication in cell culture and had an
indirect effect on RSV virion formation. However, treatment of RSV infection with a
proteasome inhibitor in a Balb/C mouse model resulted in an altered immune response,
increased pathology in the lungs, and increased mortality. From these results I conclude
that unless sufficient background information is available for the target of interest, the
targeted development of
antivirals for influenza A and RSV is no more effective than
conventional methods.

▼ Human norovirus is a leading cause of acute gastroenteritis (AGE) worldwide and is estimated to be responsible for over 200,000 deaths each year. Norovirus infections are estimated to cost $60 billion in societal costs globally each year. Yet despite the substantial health and economic burden of norovirus, there is no vaccine or norovirus-specific antiviral approved for clinical use. Effective norovirus therapies are highly desired, particularly for the treatment of chronic norovirus infections, or for prophylaxis to limit outbreaks and protect high-risk groups, including the immunocompromised. Several direct-acting
antivirals (DAAs) and host-targeted therapies have demonstrated inhibitory activity against noroviruses in vitro and in vivo, however none of these compounds have progressed through clinical trials. Therefore, this thesis aimed to discover new
antivirals and expand the repertoire of compounds with the potential to be further developed for the treatment of norovirus infections. In the first study, RNA-sequencing was performed to provide insights into norovirus pathogenesis and to help identify new host targets that could be explored antiviral development. We found that norovirus infection dampens the transcriptional profile of several genes involved in MHC class I antigen presentation, likely for immune evasion. We also observed a significant reduction in TLR7 expression which could represent a mechanism to avoid recognition by the host. To explore this further, we screened several Toll-like receptor (TLR) agonists, currently in clinical trials for antiviral therapy, against norovirus and found that these compounds potently inhibit infection in vitro. Here we discovered a new target for norovirus
antivirals. Lastly using in vitro antiviral assays against several caliciviruses, we discovered a new nucleoside analogue (NA), called NITD008, which represents the most potent NA described in the literature to date and a strong candidate for continued development. The new anti- norovirus compounds described in this thesis could be used as scaffolds for the generation of derivatives with improved drug properties or be used in combination with other compounds for improved efficacy. Overall, this thesis involved a multi-faceted approach to antiviral discovery which has increased the available compounds in the pre-clinical pipeline for norovirus therapy.

▼ Human pathogens from the Caliciviridae and Hepeviridae families impose a significant health and economic burden on our global society. Despite the substantial toll caused by viruses such as human norovirus, human sapovirus and hepatitis E virus (HEV), we currently have no specific
antivirals available to combat these pathogens. The current therapies prescribed for chronic HEV infection are poorly tolerated and can result in treatment failure. Similarly, despite a significant body of research into identifying
antivirals and vaccines for controlling human norovirus infections, none have achieved clinical approval. Safe and effective
antivirals would be beneficial for the treatment of chronic norovirus and HEV infections and for prophylactic applications during outbreak and epidemic situations. The viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) is a highly-conserved enzyme that is essential for viral replication and represents a prime antiviral target. Using in vitro polymerase activity assays and viral and replicon cell culture systems, this study describes the identification of broad-spectrum
antivirals for further development against calicivirus pathogens and HEV. This study includes the first report of a class of hepatitis C virus (HCV) non-nucleoside inhibitors (NNIs) with cross-family antiviral activity, that demonstrated broad-spectrum inhibition of several calicivirus RdRps. A highly-conserved NNI binding pocket common to RdRps across the Caliciviridae was also identified, which represents a prime target for de novo antiviral design. A novel chemical scaffold is described with low micromolar activity against the human norovirus RdRp, that also demonstrated broad-spectrum activity against RdRps from across three Caliciviridae genera. Finally, an examination of
antivirals previously developed against other viruses revealed three compounds with potent antiviral activity against replication of the HEV genotype 1 replicon, demonstrating that repurposing
antivirals could provide an accelerated platform for HEV antiviral discovery. In conclusion, this thesis identified several broad-spectrum
antivirals for further development against human pathogens such as HEV and norovirus, and a highly-conserved binding pocket for targeted norovirus antiviral design.

▼ Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections remain a significant problem in congenitally infected infants and immunocompromised individuals. Modest antiviral activities of currently approved drugs coupled with dose-limiting toxicities restrict effectiveness and promote development of resistance. The potential for ribonucleotide reductase (RR) inhibitors hydroxyurea (HU), Didox, and Trimidox to synergize, through reduction of nucleotide pools, with the deoxynucleotide analog Ganciclovir (GCV) was examined. A yield reduction assay that utilizes luciferase expressed by a recombinant virus as a surrogate measure of viral infectious units was developed and used to determine effective dose ranges for each drug. RR inhibitors exhibited intrinsic anti-CMV activities on their own with IC50 values well below toxic levels. Moreover, RR inhibitors significantly synergized with GCV. These findings provide a rationale for exploration of RR inhibitors and deoxynucleotide analogs in anti-CMV combination therapy.

▼ Chronic hepatitis C infection is considered as a major public health issue worldwide due to its linkage to the development of advanced liver diseases and hepatocellular carcinoma. Currently, the availability of highly efficient and well-tolerated antiviral therapies based on combinations of direct acting
antivirals (DAAs) has provided sustained virological response (SVR) in nearly 95% of patients. Despite the excellent efficacy of DAAs, still a non-negligible percentage of patients do not achieve virological cure. At treatment failure, resistance-associated substitutions (RASs) are usually selected at high frequencies in the viral population. While selection of RASs has an important role in treatment failure, the clinical impact of RASs and its relevance in retreatment still remain unknown. Few real-life data on RASs testing are available, mainly performed by Sanger sequencing. In this PhD Thesis, we have performed a RASs analysis in a cohort of 220 patients who experienced treatment failure to several DAA combinations using next generation sequencing. In our analysis, the RASs profile that emerge after each DAA-based treatment was subtype-specific, which strongly suggests the use of subtype-specific primers to avoid amplification bias. Also, several high prevalent RASs combinations were characterized, suggesting the importance of their detection before retreatment due to their high level of resistance. Moreover, attending to the high occurrence of extra-target RASs detected, testing all genomic regions for RASs analysis is strongly recommended for treatment decision making. In summary, the high prevalence of RASs at treatment failure, the high amount of minority RASs and the combination of RASs at the same genome, reinforce the importance of RASs analysis before retreatment using ultra-deep sequencing in order to maximize SVR. The outcome of patients who undergo retreatment should be also analysed in order to characterize clinically meaningful RASs.

▼ Au cours de notre programme de thèse, nous avons isolé et caractérisé des molécules protéiques à activité antivirale intracellulaire dirigée contre le VIH-1. Ces protéines, appelées aRep, ont été obtenues par criblage d'une banque de protéines artificielles de nouvelle génération, construites de façon combinatoire à partir de protéines naturelles constituées de motifs alpha-hélicoidaux répétés. La cible virale, ou "appât", utilisé pour ce criblage a été une région de la polyprotéine Gag du VIH-1 identifiée comme une cible privilégiée de nouvelles thérapeutiques antivirales, car essentielle à l'assemblage viral, l'empaquetage du génome viral et le clivage de maturation de Gag aboutissant à la formation de virions infectieux. Deux molécules d'aRep à affinité élevée pour la cible virale, l'aRep4E3 (32 kDa; 7 motifs répétés) et l'aRep9A8 (28 kDa; 6 motifs répétés) ont ainsi été identifiées, isolées et clonées. L'étude de l'activité anti-VIH intracellulaire de ces aRep a été réalisée dans différents systèmes d'expression cellulaire, nécessitant la construction de lignées stables de cellules d'insecte et de cellules épithéliales humaines, et leur infection par différents types de vecteurs viraux recombinants, baculovirus ou lentivirus, porteurs du gène rapporteur luciférase. Mais surtout, cette étude a été menée sur des cellules lymphocytaires-T (SupT1), cibles naturelles du virus, exprimant ces aRep et infectées par du VIH-1 naturel infectieux. Nos résultats ont montré que l'aRep4E3 et l'aRep9A8 ont toutes deux un effet négatif significatif sur le cycle réplicatif du VIH-1, mais ciblent des fonctions virales différentes. L'aRep4E3 bloque l'empaquetage du génome viral, tandis que l'aRep9A8 inhibe la maturation et diminue l'infectivité virale. De plus, l'aRep9A8, exprimée de façon constitutive dans les cellules SupT1, leur confère une résistance au VIH: une lignée de SupT1 chroniquement infectée par le VIH-1 a pu être ainsi isolée et maintenue en culture pendant plusieurs semaines, sans effet cytopathique viro-induit apparent. Ces nouvelles données auront des implications non-négligeables dans le choix et la conduite de futures stratégies de thérapie cellulaire anti-VIH
HIV-1 infection is a long-term disease which required a long-life treatment. Besides the standard HAART regiment, HIV gene therapy is a promising alternative strategy which give rise to hope for the better HIV-1 treatment. Protein therapeutics is one another technique that represent high impact results in curing various types of disease. It is already become a significant part of current medical treatments. In this study we first designed aRep, a non-immunoglobulin scaffold protein which target two domains of HIV-1 Pr55Gag, SP1-NC and investigated their roles as an intracellular therapeutic agents. Phage display technology was used for the specific isolation of aRep against a critical C-terminal region of the HIV-1 Pr55Gag precursor from a large and diverse library. The antiviral activity of these two Pr55Gag binders was investigated using different…

▼ Cientos de factores del huésped relacionados con infecciones virales por VIH, hepatitis C, dengue o virus del Nilo occidental han sido identificados. Como muchos de esos factores del huésped son compartidos por diferentes virus, el bloqueo químico de un componente celular clave asociado al virus podría actuar de forma efectiva como un tratamiento antiviral de amplio espectro. Antivirales de amplio espectro contra factores del huésped podrían reducir la complejidad y el coste del tratamiento, incrementar el cumplimiento de la terapia y pueden suponer una barrera mayor al desarrollo de resistencia. En esta tesis un cribado de alta capacidad anti-VIH fue aplicado a una librería de metabolitos secundarios de myxobacteria. Compuestos con alta actividad anti-VIH y baja toxicidad fueron clasificados como hits y dos de ellos (ratjadone A y soraphen A) fueron seleccionados para posteriores estudios. El mecanismo de inhibition de VIH de ambos compuestos es descrito aquí. Los resultados presentados en esta tesis muestran que usar antivirales de amplio espectro contra factores del huésped es un opción viable para tratamientos antivirales y que los compuestos identificados pueden ser estudiados para el desarrollo de fármacos.

▼ Acute respiratory tract
infections in humans are responsible for significant morbidity and
mortality especially in children, elderly, and the
immunocompromised. Virus infection is the primary cause of acute
respiratory tract infections. Infection with coronaviruses can
cause disease ranging from common colds to severe acute respiratory
syndrome. Currently no coronavirus-specific antivirals are
available. Patients are given symptomatic treatment, or are
prescribed inappropriately antibiotics which do not target the
underlying virus infection. The identification of specific
inhibitors of coronaviruses or knowledge about how coronaviruses
interact with the innate immune system could provide new avenues
for developing therapeutics. I investigated the replication of
human coronavirus NL63 (HCoV-NL63) in primary human airway
epithelial cultures and characterized the activity of the viral
papain-like protease 2 (PLP2) domain. Using quantitative real time
PCR and imaging techniques I showed that HCoV-NL63 undergoes
productive replication in the ciliated bronchial epithelial cells.
To identify potential broad spectrum inhibitors of HCoVs, small
molecule inhibitors of SARS-CoV were screened for cross-reactivity
against HCoV-NL63 PLP2 and I identified a compound, GRL-0737, which
blocks HCoV-NL63 with an EC50 ~5µM. I also
investigated HCoV-NL63 mediated antagonism of interferon-β (IFN-β)
induction. I showed that HCoV-NL63 infection of bronchial
epithelial cells results in a small, but measurable release of
IFN-β by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). I confirmed
that HCoV-NL63 PLP2 is an IFN-β antagonist, and abrogates the
ability of the newly identified innate immune signaling protein
STING (stimulator of interferon genes) to induce expression of an
IRF-3 dependent luciferase reporter. Furthermore, using
immunofluorescence I demonstrated that HCoV-NL63 non-structural
protein 3 (viral protein in which PLP2 resides) co-localizes with
STING suggesting that HCoV-NL63 PLP2 may be targeting STING
activation of the IRF-3 arm of the type I IFN response to virus
infection. This work demonstrates that HCoV-NL63 PLP2 plays an
important role in evasion of the host immune response and that
HCoV-NL63 replication can be disrupted by inhibitors of the PLP2
protease, making this protease an attractive target for antiviral
treatments of coronavirus
infection.

▼ Influenza is a global public health burden, producing seasonal epidemics with 3-5 million severe cases and 250,000 to 500,000 deaths each year. In addition to seasonal illness, influenza has also been responsible for global pandemics, the most notorious being the 1918 “Spanish Influenza.” While vaccination is the most useful tool for seasonal or pandemic influenza control, such interventions would not help individuals who are already infected. Antiviral drugs such as neuraminidase inhibitors and adamantanes can be effective if taken soon after symptoms appear, but antiviral resistance is developing. An alternative to antiviral drugs is the promising field of therapeutics based on RNA interference (RNAi). RNAi based treatments utilize chemically synthesized short interfering (si)RNAs between 21-24 nt in length to silence genes of interest. A number of research groups have investigated RNAi based
antivirals, but the main limitations to their clinical use are risks of
off-target effects and difficulty with appropriate dose delivery. A potential solution to both problems would be to use a pro-siRNA which is inert in uninfected cells but activated upon infection, thus limiting off-target effects to infected cells while sparing healthy cells. This approach would also provide dosing flexibility, as the active dose would be modulated by viral activity. In the case of influenza, a pro-siRNA consists of a standard siRNA duplex with a 10-13 nucleotide 7-methyl-guanosine (M7G) capped sequence on the 5’ end of the passenger or positive sense strand. This extension should render the pro-siRNA biologically inert in uninfected cells but be cleaved off in infected cells via PA mediated cap snatching activity, leaving behind a functional siRNA duplex. To test the feasibility of this approach, we designed variants of pro-siRNAs targeting eGFP, which can be expressed in a variety of cell types using transient or stable transfection. Cells were transfected with
eGFP producing plasmids and/or siRNAs, infected with influenza 24-26 hours post transfection and fixed and analyzed 24 hours post infection. Through use of flow cytometry, we found that several pro-siRNA designs produced modest reductions in eGFP expression in infected cells, suggesting that the concept is feasible. However, further optimization will be required for capped pro-siRNAs to be a practical antiviral approach against seasonal and pandemic influenza.

▼ Les coronavirus sont une famille de virus émergents, comme l’ont montré les émergences récentes des coronavirus SARS-CoV (Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus) et MERS-CoV (Middle-East respiratory syndrome coronavirus), pathogènes pour l’homme. Nous ne disposons ni d’antiviraux spécifiques ni de vaccins pour lutter contre les coronavirus.Des quatre protéines structurales du virus, la protéine M est le moteur de l’assemblage viral. Exprimée seule en cellules, elle peut dépasser le site d’assemblage dans la voie de sécrétion. Nous avons confirmé la localisation de MERS-M dans le TGN(trans-golgi network) et identifié deux signaux dans son domaine C-terminal impliqués dans son trafic : un signal DxE d’export du réticulum, et un signal KxGxYR de rétention dans le TGN. Le signal DxE avait déjà été identifié sur une autre protéine virale, tandis que le signal KxGxYR est un nouveau motif. Pour confirmer son rôle nous avons construit des chimères entre MERS-M et la protéine M du coronavirus IBV (Infectious bronchitis virus), localisée dans le compartiment intermédiaire entre le RE et le Golgi (ERGIC), et démontré que pour les deux protéines le domaine C-terminal est déterminant pour leur localisation spécifique.Un second projet de caractérisation de l’activité antivirale de la digoxigénine contre le HCoV-229E a été initié. Nous avons démontré que cette drogue inhibe le virus à une étape post-entrée, avec une concentration inhibitrice médiane (IC50) de 250nM, et qu’elle n’est pas toxique pour les cellules à cette concentration. Elle inhibe aussi l’infection par le virus de l’hépatite C, et elle semble cibler une étape précoce de la réplication des virus RNA (+).
Coronaviruses are an important family of emerging pathogens, as shown by therecent emergence of pathogenic SARS-CoV (Severe acute respiratory syndromecoronavirus) and MERS-CoV (Middle-East respiratory syndrome coronavirus) in the lasttwo decades. There are still some knowledge gaps concerning the biology ofcoronaviruses and we do not have any specific treatment or vaccine.Among the four structural proteins of the virus, the M protein is considered to bethe motor of viral assembly. Expressed alone in cells, M proteins can go beyond theassembly site of the virus (Endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment,ERGIC) in the secretory pathway. We confirmed MERS-M localization in the Trans-Golginetwork (TGN) and identified two signals involved in its intracellular trafficking in its Cterminaldomain: a DxE ER export signal, and a KxGxYR TGN retention signal. The DxEsignal was already identified on another viral protein, whereas the KxGxYR signal is anew motif. To confirm the role of KxGxYR signal in TGN retention, we constructedchimeras between MERS-M and the protein M of the Infectious bronchitis virus (IBV),located in the ERGIC. Our results suggest that for both MERS-M and IBV-M the Cterminaldomain is determinant for the specific localization of the proteins.We also initiated a project on the characterization of the antiviral activity ofdigoxigenin…

▼ Kyasanur Forest disease virus (KFDV) of the Flaviviridae virus family has caused seasonal infections and periodic outbreaks in Karnataka, India. First identified in 1957, KFDV annually infects 400-500 people and has a fatality rate of 3-5%; there are no approved
antivirals and the existing licensed vaccine’s effectiveness appears to be questionable. Many tools for KFDV research are limited and this work sought to develop methods for analysing
antivirals, including interferon (IFN)-α/β species. The BHK-21 (ATCC) cell line allowed for high virus propagation and distinguishable cytopathic effects (CPE) for determining antiviral effectiveness. The additional tool of a reverse genetics system expressing a full-length cDNA KFDV genome with a GFP reporter failed to propagate, despite numerous GFP genome-insertion strategies. The clinically approved IFN-α2a or IFN-α2b has had variable success at combatting flavivirus diseases in people, especially in the immuno-compromised. The continued passaging of KFDV-infected cells with repeated IFN-α2a treatment did not eliminate KFDV and had little effect on infectious particle production. IFN-αspecies, αWA and α were more effective than IFN-α2a and α2b at reducing KFDV; however dose ranges indicated that while low concentrations could limit CPE, higher concentrations were needed to inhibit virion release. Avoidance of IFN-α/β through Jak/STAT signalling repression was attributed to the NS5 protein, specifically the RdRp domain based on data obtained with luciferase and vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) recovery assays. However, the mechanism appears to act subsequently to STAT1/2 activation without NS5 binding to any Jak/STAT components. A non-infectious, replicative system serving as a platform for antiviral drug testing against KFDV in a high throughput manner could only provide luciferase signals when the NS proteins capable of driving replication, were supplied in cis (subgenomic) but not in trans (antigenome). To conclude, IFN-α species such as IFN-αWA may be better suited than the licensed IFN-α2a for treatment of KFDV infections; however, IFN effects appear to be subdued in vitro due to the actions of the NS5 protein. While IFN may not be a successful antiviral against KFDV, the work in this thesis provides a foundation for evaluating other potential anti-KFDV therapeutics.

▼ Bioaerosol samplers are used to detect and characterize influenza virus bioaerosols but current guidelines for sampler selection are lacking. We examined four bioaerosol samplers using artificial bioaerosols and the ferret model of IAV infection. Samplers included a PTFE filter, NIOSH cyclone sampler, Andersen impactor, and SpinCon®. The PTFE filter and NIOSH cyclone sampler retained vRNA and infectious artificial bioaerosols. All bioaerosol samplers collected vRNA and the PTFE filter and NIOSH cyclone sampler retained infectious virus from infected ferrets. Ease of use, and infectious virus retention make the PTFE filter and NIOSH cyclone sampler suitable for the collection of IAV. We also examined the ability of digoxin to inhibit H1N1 replication. H1N1 viral loads decreased after incubation with digoxin while minimal cellular metabolic inhibition was observed. Digoxin in combination with oseltamivir, examined to determine the additive effects, also decreased viral loads in vitro. Digoxin appears to inhibit H1N1 replication in vitro.

▼ Using the Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) as a focal point and newly approved Direct-Acting Antivirals as the impetus for change, this thesis explores the course of events when states fail to adhere to the federal mandates regarding Medicaid
beneficiaries’ access to outpatient pharmaceuticals. The researcher analyzed how pressure against restrictive regulatory violations generates momentum to create and find alternative means of funding and procurement. Beginning with federal healthcare
policy and moving to state implementation, the researcher used state Medicaid prior authorization restrictions on new, innovative cures for Hepatitis C as an example to argue that the Medicaid system, in its current form, is tolerating blatant
non-compliance and failing to provide the federally mandated care for its beneficiaries suffering from Hepatitis C. The researcher concluded with a recommendation to model supplemental federal support in a manner similar to the Ryan White CARE
Act.

▼ A novel matrix assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry based approach to study the binding of inhibitors to the influenza virus neuraminidase is described. The approach was shown to successfully be able to localize the binding of the known inhibitors of the viral neuraminidase – zanamivir and 2-deoxy-2,3-didehydro-N-acetylneuraminic acid, confirmed from the analysis of available X-ray crystal structures. The approach was extended to study the binding of an elderberry anthocyanin – cyanidin-3-sambubiocide to the neuraminidase, in parallel with computational approaches. Results revealed for the first time the molecular basis for the anthocyanidin’s neuraminidase inhibitory and by showing its binding within the neuraminidase 430-cavity, remote from residues known to regulate neuraminidase resistance. The results obtained herein provide a framework for the development of a new class of antivirals against influenza without this susceptibility. As an integral part of the anti-influenza drug development strategy a new phylogenetic approach for the surveillance of drug resistance and newly emerging strains is presented. It utilizes mass spectral data produced from proteolytic digestion of proteins, rather than gene/translated gene sequences to chart the evolutionary history of organisms. The concept and validity of the approach is demonstrated using theoretical and experimental mass data of the influenza hemagglutinin and neuraminidase. The ability of these trees to accurately cluster viral proteins from drug resistant strains is also shown and its relevance for surveillance of novel strains and drug-resistant mutants is also established by demonstrating their ability to accurately place experimentally derived mass data on mass trees. Given that the mass data can be generated more rapidly than gene sequences, mass trees offer new opportunities and advantages for phylogenetic analysis.

▼ The hepatitis C virus (HCV) and norovirus (NoV) are significant human pathogens posing a substantial health and economic burden in both developing and developed countries. Controlling the spread of these viruses through the development of both vaccines and
antivirals has proven to be difficult, partly because of the refractoriness in growing these viruses in cell culture. The current standard treatment for HCV is expensive, poorly tolerated, has a long duration, and is only partly effective. Although new direct-acting
antivirals (DAA) are entering clinical treatment, these emerging molecules have been mainly targeted against one of six HCV genotypes, namely G1. Conversely, there are no
antivirals for the treatment of chronic NoV infections, or for use as a prophylactic measure in an outbreak setting, which typically affects hospitals, nursing homes and other enclosed environments. The viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerases (RdRp) of HCV and NoV are prime targets for antiviral development, given their crucial role for the viral replication, and the absence of a homologous human enzyme. This study describes the discovery and characterisation of the first non-nucleoside inhibitors (NNI) specifically targeted against the RdRp of HCV G3a, a neglected but increasingly important genotype of HCV. Chemical scaffolds and derivatives were identified with low micromolar inhibitory activity against recombinant RdRp, and the HCV replicon cell culture model. Furthermore, the efficacy of previously identified inhibitors against the HCV G3a RdRp was examined, and a novel mechanism of enhancement of de novo transcription was discovered for a subclass of these
antivirals; the T2 and P-β binding NNIs. This study also describes the high-throughput identification of the first four NoV-directed NNI scaffolds, which provide a strong platform for future rational drug design for
antivirals against another pathogen with thus far limited control measures

▼ Sofosbuvir is a uridine based nucleotide inhibitor of the hepatitis C viral (HCV) polymerase that is the backbone of many treatment regimens. In combination with drugs targeting other viral enzymes (including the poorly potent guanosine analogue ribavirin or highly potent inhibitors of viral NS5A or protease) most patients clear virus and resistance to sofosbuvir is rare, allowing effective retreatment with sofosbuvir. Patients with Genotype 3 HCV respond less well than other genotypes and response is reduced in those previously exposed to interferon. Here we show that patientderived virus from patients with Genotype 3 HCV who relapse to sofosbuvir-based therapies have a reduced sensitivity to SOF in an in-vitro phenotyping assay. Analysis of viral sequencing data revealed two distinct polymorphisms (A150V and K206E) in the HCV polymerase that are associated with treatment failure and in-vitro; they reduce sofosbuvir sensitivity against genotype 3 hepatitis C virions. However both polymorphisms modify the cellular response to type I interferon and in cells lacking response to interferon the impact on sofosbuvir sensitivity is minimal. The A150V polymorphism reduces the response to interferon 70 fold whereas the K206E substitution has minimal effects on interferon in isolation but in combination with A150V reduces the response 100 fold. Preliminary data indicates that the A150V polymorphism interferes with the late response to type I interferons enabling the virus to overcome the induction of interferon-stimulated genes. These data indicate a complex interaction between direct acting antiviral drugs and the innate antiviral response.

▼ Natural products offer many possibilities for the treatment of disease. More than 70% of the Earth’s surface is ocean, and recent exploration and access has allowed for new additions to this catalog of natural treasures. The Central Red Sea off the coast of Saudi Arabia serves as a newly accessible location, which provides the opportunity to bioprospect marine sponges with the purpose of identifying novel antiviral scaffolds.
Antivirals are underrepresented in present day clinical trials, as well as in the academic screens of marine natural product libraries. Here a high-throughput pipeline was initiated by prefacing the antiviral screen with an Image-based High-Content Screening (HCS) technique in order to identify candidates with antiviral potential. Prospective candidates were tested in a biochemical or cell-based assay for the ability to inhibit the NS3 protease of the West Nile Virus (WNV NS protease) as well as replication and reverse transcription of the Human Immunodeficiency Virus 1 (HIV-1). The analytical chemistry techniques of High-Performance Liquid Chromatograpy (HPLC), Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS), and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) where used in order to identify the compounds responsible for the characteristic antiviral activity of the selected sponge fractions. We have identified a 3-alkyl pyridinium from Amphimedon chloros as the causative agent of the observed WNV NS3 protease inhibition in vitro. Additionally, we identified debromohymenialdisine, hymenialdisine, and oroidin from Stylissa carteri as prospective scaffolds capable of HIV-1 inhibition.

▼ Arborviruses such as western equine encephalitis virus (WEEV) are capable of causing a wide range of diseases in humans. The CDC and NIAID consider WEEV as a potential bioterrorism weapon due to several factors: potential for aerosol transmission, lack of effective countermeasures, and ease of genetic manipulation to increase virulence and high levels of death. A series of thieno[3,2-b]pyrrole-based inhibitors were discovered to be active against WEEV following a high-throughput screen (HTS). This dissertation discusses the development of novel indole-2-carboxamide RNA replication inhibitors with improved in vitro and in vivo activity and the development of tag-free photoaffinity probes for target identification. A first-generation indole, CCG 203926 (12), with modestly improved potency and metabolic stability over the original screening lead CCG 32091, achieved efficacy in a preliminary in vivo study against neuroadapted Sindbis virus. Second-generation inhibitor, CCG 205432 (50), was the first inhibitor with submicromolar activity and further improved half-life compared to CCG-203926. In a WEEV-infected mouse model, in which CCG 203926 was inactive, it increased survival and decreased disease severity. Even though a related third generation inhibitor, CCG 209023 (110), was less potent than 50, it had a significantly improved half-life, lower recognition by Pgp and equal efficacy to CCG-205432 at improving survival. It was determined that 50 and related indole-2-carboxamide inhibitors have a wide range of activity against other RNA viruses and elicit their antiviral activity by targeting host factors instead of viral enzymatic proteins. One of the two photoaffinity probes, 126, is equipotent to lead indole 50 and is currently being used for preliminary target identification studies. Compound 110 is also being studied as a combination therapy with neuroprotective agents. The lack of clinical therapeutics against alphaviruses emphasizes the significance of this work, as there is a critical need to develop potent
antivirals against these pathogens.

▼ Le virus de l'hépatite B (HBV) infecte chroniquement près de 240 millions d'individus dans le monde. L'infection chronique par HBV est un souci de santé publique majeur puisque l'infection peut évoluer au cours du temps vers la cirrhose et/ou l'hépatocarcinome (CHC). Malgré l'existence de traitements efficaces à base d'analogues de nucléos(t)ides permettant de diminuer la charge virale chez les patients, ceux-ci nécessitent une prise médicamenteuse à vie. En effet, malgré la diminution importante du risque de développer un cancer du foie, ces traitements ne permettent pas l'élimination définitive du virus. Les cellules infectées par HBV sont les hépatocytes du foie, qui remplissent la majorité des rôles vitaux de cet organe. La formation d'un minichromosome viral au sein de ces cellules infectées appelés ADNccc (pour ADN circulaire-covalemment-clos), est majoritairement responsable de la persistance du HBV. Les traitements actuels utilisés sont principalement des analogues de nucléos(t)ides et ceux-ci n'ont pas ou peu d'effets sur l'ADNccc. La nécessité de développer de nouvelles stratégies antivirales visant à éliminer définitivement HBV a donc conduit de nombreux laboratoires, dont le nôtre, à étudier l'utilisation de stratégies immuno-thérapeutiques incluant des stimulateurs de l'immunité innée (agonistes de TLR7, TLR8, RIG-1.) dans le cadre d'infections chroniques. De nombreuses études ont démontré que l'utilisation de ligands stimulant les récepteurs de l'immunité innée promouvait un fort effet antiviral, médié par la production endogène et locale de cytokines pro-inflammatoires et l'induction de gènes régulés par l'interféron (1SG). Dans ce but, nous nous sommes intéressés plus particulièrement aux potentiels effets antiviraux de l'agonisation des senseurs de l'immunité innée les plus connus, les Toll-like récepteurs (TLR), dans le cadre de l'infection par HBV dans les cellules hépatiques. La stratégie immuno-thérapeutique envisagée, vise à stimuler aussi bien les cellules immunitaires que les hépatocytes infectés. La caractérisation de l'expression de différents senseurs de l'immunité innée, d'une part dans les cellules primaires isolées du foie et d'autre part dans certaines lignées cellulaires correspondantes, nous a permis d'avoir une vue d'ensemble 1) des récepteurs exprimés par les différentes cellules du foie notamment dans les hépatocytes (TLR2/TLR3/TLR4/TLR5) ; 2) d'évaluer la fonctionnalité de ceux-ci pour la production de cytokines (IL-6 ; IP-10) lors de leur agonisation 3) d'évaluer les modèles disponibles parmi les lignées cellulaires les plus proches immunologiquement des cellules hépatiques. Les cellules HepaRG et une nouvelle lignée dérivée des macrophages du foie les iKC par exemple sont plus proches respectivement des hépatocytes et des macrophages primaires hépatiques et sont donc des modèles relevant pour les études immuno-thérapeutiques. L'utilisation de ligands de TLR2 et TLR3 sur des hépatocytes infectés chroniquement par HBV, a montré le plus fort effet antiviral (incluant une médiation…

▼ Dans les régions de fortes endémicités, 70-80% des carcinomes hépatocellulaires sont induits par le VHB. Bien qu’un vaccin prophylactique très efficace existe, il n’est d’aucune utilité pour les 250 millions de personnes chroniquement infectées. Les traitements actuels pour contrôler l'infection chronique par le VHB montrent des limites et le besoin de nouvelles thérapies se fait ressentir. La Polo-like kinase-1 (PLK1), qui joue un rôle essentiel dans la mitose et est surexprimée dans de nombreux cancers, représente une cible prometteuse. Outre son rôle lors de la division cellulaire, PLK1 est impliquée dans la régulation de l'expression des gènes en interphase. Il a été montré que la protéine X du VHB (HBx) active PLK1 dans des modèles de cellules murines. Cependant, il restait à déterminer si PLK1 jouait un rôle au niveau de la réplication du VHB dans des hépatocytes quiescents. Des études récentes ont mis en évidence un lien positif entre l'activation de PLK1 et la réplication du VHB. Le but de ce projet de thèse a été d'étudier le(s) mécanisme(s) par le(s)quel(s) PLK1 jouait un rôle positif sur la réplication virale, avec pour objectif futur d'explorer l’inhibition de PLK1 comme cible antivirale. L'interaction entre PLK1 et la réplication du VHB a d'abord été décrite à l'aide du modèle HepAD38. Dans ce contexte, l'ADN viral est intégré dans le génome hôte, sous le contrôle d'un système d'expression Tet-off. La transcription de l'ARN prégénomique (pgRNA), à la base de la réplication virale, est initiée par la suppression de tétracycline. Dans ce contexte, l'augmentation de l'expression de PLK1 est corrélée avec la régulation négative de deux protéines; SUZ12 et ZNF198, faisant partie de complexes de remodelage de la chromatine. L'inhibition de PLK1 bloque la réplication du VHB, en agissant au niveau de la transcription virale. D'autre part, dans les modèles de réplication du VHB qui miment au mieux une infection, comprenant les hépatocytes primaires humains (PHH) et les cellules non transformées/différenciées HepaRG (dHepaRG), où le VHB se réplique dans des cellules quiescentes, nous avons mis en évidence que: 1) L'inhibition pharmacologique de PLK1 bloque la réplication virale, semblablement en perturbant l’encapsidation du pgRNA via une interaction avec la protéine core du VHB (HBc). 2) Un knocking-down de PLK1 en utilisant des ARN interférents délivrés par nanoparticules lipidiques résulte en une forte baisse de la production de pgRNA et dans la sécrétion des antigènes HBeAg/HBsAg, sans impact sur la viabilité cellulaire. Ce projet a donc permis la preuve de concept que PLK1 pouvait être une cible thérapeutique afin de controler la réplication du VHB. De plus, grâce à la technologie de délivrance par nanoparticules lipidiques d’ARN interférents, nous avons pu cibler spécifiquement les hépatocytes, augmentant de ce fait la spécificité et l’efficacité de nos traitements. Un travail sur la compréhension précise des méchanismes cellulaires impliqués permettra de mieux cerner cette interaction hôte/virus afin de…

▼ Chaque année, les épidémies de grippe, dont les principaux agents étiologiques sont les virus influenza de type A, ont un impact considérable sur la population en terme de morbidité et de mortalité. Le virus influenza A comporte à sa surface deux glycoprotéines, la neuraminidase et l’hémagglutinine. Ces deux protéines ont des fonctions antagonistes : l’hémagglutinine permet l’entrée du virus dans la cellule hôte et la neuraminidase, par son activité sialidase, libère les nouveaux virions formés. Bien que la prophylaxie du virus grippal repose essentiellement sur la vaccination, les antiviraux jouent un rôle important dans la lutte contre les épidémies de grippe et dans la stratégie développée en prévision d'une pandémie grippale. Les inhibiteurs de la neuraminidase (INAs) sont des antiviraux efficaces contre la grippe. Ils inhibent l’activité enzymatique de la neuraminidase et empêchent la libération des nouveaux virions formés. La démarche méthodologique qui a conduit à l’élaboration de molécules ciblant la neuraminidase laissait espérer une apparition limitée de résistance. Cependant, des cas de résistances aux INAs ont été mis en évidence lors d’études cliniques. Outre la nécessité d’une surveillance étroite, il est donc important d’étudier et de comprendre les diverses mécanismes susceptibles d’induire une résistance aux INAs. Le travail de cette thèse s’est ainsi porté sur la compréhension de la diversité des mécanismes de résistance. Dans un premier temps, nous avons étudié l’impact de mutations sur l’ensemble des résidus structuraux du site actif de la neuraminidase. Nous avons observé que la plupart de ces mutations n’altéraient pas les caractéristiques du virus et induisaient une légère baisse de sensibilité aux INAs. Par la suite, nous avons cherché à explorer les possibilités de synergie dans la résistance aux INAs par la combinaison de deux mutations structurales du site actif de la neuraminidase. Sur quatre virus produits, seul le virus possédant la double mutation E119V+I222L était viable, malgré une capacité réplicative in vitro altérée. La combinaison de ces deux mutations induit une synergie dans la résistance à l’oseltamivir. Enfin, nous avons voulu intégrer l’interaction fonctionnelle de la neuraminidase avec l’hémagglutinine. Nous avons montré que la combinaison d’une hémagglutinine de faible affinité pour les récepteurs sialylés permettait de restaurer un virus possédant une neuraminidase déficiente. Ainsi, un virus influenza peut se libérer de la fonction de la neuraminidase, cible des seuls antiviraux efficaces disponibles à l’heure actuelle. Les mécanismes de résistances aux inhibiteurs de la neuraminidase sont multiples. L’émergence durant les deux dernières saisons hivernales de virus résistants aux INAs sans pression de sélection a remis en question les hypothèses développées sur l’infectivité et la transmissibilité de souches résistantes, ouvrant de nouvelles perspectives quant à l’étude des mécanismes permettant l’obtention de virus épidémiogènes résistants aux INAs

▼ INTRODUCTION: Mortality associated with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is increasing, yet only a small percentage of HCV-infected individuals are aware of their infections, complete treatment, and achieve a cure, defined as a sustained virologic response. In March 2015, the Section of General Internal Medicine at Boston Medical Center (BMC), New England’s largest safety-net hospital, implemented the Adult Primary Care HCV Treatment and Triage Program to increase access to treatment. We are unaware of prior studies that have explored a pharmacist-centered primary care-based HCV treatment model in the era of newer direct-acting antiviral (DAA) medications.
OBJECTIVES: To gain a deeper understanding of the roles of each program staff member, as well as an understanding of how primary care providers (PCPs) who refer patients to the program perceive and interact with the program. Such an understanding will help promote implementation and dissemination of the program.
METHODS: We conducted in-depth semi-structured interviews with six staff members and with five PCPs in the Section of General Internal Medicine at BMC who refer patients to the program. We asked staff members about their roles and their perception of the program’s impact on patient linkage to HCV treatment. We probed PCPs about their experiences with HCV screening, referral, and follow-up processes, and differences in accessing HCV treatment for their patients prior to and following the implementation of the program. We audiotaped and transcribed interviews, and identified major themes through qualitative analysis.
RESULTS: We identified five major themes that characterize how the HCV treatment program delivers care: 1) efficiency (“So here I feel like…they get evaluated…they get treated. Boom, it’s done”); 2) clear and open communication (“…one of the strengths of our program is that we have…a lot of direct contact with patients…”); 3) personalized medicine (“…I've set up the pill box for them [patients]…we tailor it to whatever they need”); 4) high patient engagement (“So if I get a referral for a patient…I call the patient three times. If I haven’t heard from the patient…I send them a letter and I tell the PCP”); 5) patient empowerment through education (“I think patient education is the best thing…if the patient is involved then… they’ll do what they need to do”). Additionally, the public health social worker and the pharmacist play key roles in the program. The social worker supports patients throughout treatment and addresses psychosocial barriers to treatment engagement (“I had a patient…who stopped taking his medication because his apartment was infested with bed bugs…[Social worker] got the patient furniture for free and got an exterminator…”). The pharmacist provides medication management during face-to-face patient visits (“…I go over everything imaginable...proper adherence…adverse effects, interactions…”).
CONCLUSIONS: The HCV treatment program at BMC is a promising model to deliver HCV treatment to urban, underserved…

▼ Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection affects millions of Americans at a high public health cost. Despite the availability of a curative treatment, a significant proportion of people living with HCV are not treated. People who inject drugs (PWID), are one of the groups at highest risk of HCV transmission, and are among the least likely to get treatment. Using literature reviews to explore the evidence and a cross-sectional survey to assess what barriers providers see to treatment for PWID, this dissertation explores outcomes when PWID do receive treatment, facilitators to successful treatment outcomes, how current treatment guidelines address substance use, and how providers assess treatment candidacy in PWID. Barriers to treatment include patient-related factors such lack of engagement in healthcare and contradictions to treatment. Other barriers are provider-related, such assumptions about the ability of PWID to complete treatment, and concerns about ongoing drug use and reinfection risk. Although eradication of HCV infection through provision of this curative treatment is theoretically possible, this cannot happen until PWID are treated in large numbers. Currently, PWID face substantial barriers to treatment despite the existence of a cure. Improved provider willingness and knowledge, decreased medication costs, and interventions to address adherence and reinfection are all needed in order to facilitate increased treatment provision for PWID, and move toward eradication of HCV in the United States.

▼ Worldwide, 71 million people are chronically infected with Hepatitis C Virus (HCV). Chronic HCV infection leads to potentially fatal outcomes including liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. HCV-specific immune responses play a major role in viral control and may explain why approximately 20% of infections are spontaneously cleared before chronicity is established. New well-tolerated direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) lead to a sustained virologic response in greater than 95% of patients. Generally, treatment-induced viral clearance does not protect against reinfection as prolonged antigen exposure leads to exhaustion of HCV-specific T cells. Previous studies investigated whether treatment with interferon-based therapies during acute and chronic infection or DAAs administered during chronic infection prevent or reverse this exhaustion phenotype. The objective of the present study is to investigate if treatment of acute HCV infection with DAAs further improves immune restoration, leading to responses similar to those seen in spontaneous resolvers, which may increase protection against reinfection.

(more)
▼ The development of specific antiviral drugs directly targeting the hepatitis C virus (HCV) is clinically important, as the current standard interferon/ribavirin combination treatment is only partially effective, expensive and often associated with severe side effects. Inhibitors of the NS3 protease (PI) therefore represent a promising alternative or additional therapy. To date, the development and in vitro evaluation of PIs is restricted to the genotype 1/2 based replicon and the genotype 2a full length viral cell culture system. However, proteases of the different HCV genotypes vary substantially in their amino acid sequence and secondary structure and require separate evaluation of their efficacy before they go into clinical trials. To address this issue, a panel of intra- and intergenotypic recombinants based on the recombinant infectious clone Jc1 (pFK JFH1/J6/C-846) was developed in this work. The viability of these recombinants was assessed in the Huh7.5 cell culture system, where replicating viruses were detected by HCV-NS5A immunostaining. Intergenotypic recombinants containing genotype 1a, 1b, 3a, 4a and 6a derived proteases were replication defective, whereas the recombinant with genotype 5a derived protease replicated efficiently after acquiring cell culture adaptive mutations. The replacement of not only the NS3 protease gene region, but also its cofactor NS4A, allowed the generation of replication competent intra- and intergenotypic recombinants for all 6 major genotypes. Replacing the NS3 protease of the recombinants with that of patientderived proteases also generated replicating recombinants, greatly expanding the panel of intergenotypic recombinants available for phenotyping and PI evaluation. However, intra- and intergenotypic recombinants showed substantial differences in their replication kinetics, which may be influenced by naturally occurring polymorphism between genotypes and the differential requirement of adaptive/attenuating cell culture mutations. Genotype 1a recombinants replicated very poorly, which may be due to incompatibilities between the type 1a NS3/4A protease and the type 2a backbone. 50% inhibitory concentrations (IC50) of different PIs were measured using Foci Forming Units/ml (FFU/ml) reductions and replication inhibition assays. The different recombinants showed consistent, genotype-associated differences in their susceptibility to the PI BILN 2061, with genotypes 2a, 3a and 5a derived recombinants showing approximately 100-fold lower susceptibility than genotype 1b, 4a and 6a derived recombinants. These observations are consistent with major differences in response rates found in recent treatment trials of genotype 1, 2 and 3 infected patients. Differences in susceptibility were also observed for VX-950, with genotype 1b, 2a and 6a derived recombinants being twice as susceptible than genotype 3a, 4a and 5a derived recombinants. Passaging the intra- and intergenotypic recombinants under increasing concentrations of PI allowed the identification of PI resistance mutations.…

▼ Leflunomide is an experimental immunosuppressive agent
that has shown efficacy as an antiviral agent against human
cytomegalovirus (HCMV) and polyomavirus strain BK (BKV). An
antiviral regimen has been approved for immunosuppressed patients
suffering complications from HCMV infection, whereas a good
treatment option for patients infected with BKV does not exist.
Unfortunately, the antiviral treatment options for patients
infected with HCMV have helped promote the propagation of
multi-drug resistant HCMV strains. This body of work illustrates
the possible antiviral mechanisms associated with Leflunomide using
an in vitro model system. We have tested the hypothesis that the
antiviral activity of A77 1726, the active metabolite of
Leflunomide, is a result of its inhibition of phosphorylation of
one or more viral structural proteins. Western blot, Southern (Dot
Blot) blot, and CMV gene array analysis demonstrated that
Leflunomide does not inhibit HCMV DNA synthesis, the translation of
essential viral proteins, or the transcription of viral mRNA.
32P-orthophosphate labeling experiments confirm a reduction in the
phosphorylation of more than one of the HCMV tegument proteins. In
addition, immunohistochemical staining showed discrete changes in
localization of these tegument proteins in Leflunomide-treated
cells. Co-immunoprecipitation experiments confirm that Leflunomide
disrupts the interaction of viral tegument proteins suggesting that
Leflunomide may inhibit complete infectious virion assembly by
altering the phosphorylation states of one or more viral structural
proteins. The second aspect of this work was to determine if
Leflunomide would inhibit the replication of BKV, a polyoma virus
unrelated to HCMV. We tested the hypothesis that A77 1726 would
inhibit the production of infectious BKV particles without
inhibiting DNA synthesis or large T antigen translation. Plaque
assay data demonstrated a log decrease in viral titers when
infected cells were treated with A77 1726. Western blot and
Southern blot data confirmed the inhibition was not due to a block
in protein translation of the large T antigen or a viral DNA
synthesis. Immunohistochemistry confirmed there was no reduction of
the large T antigen protein when infected cells were treated with
A77 1726. When the phosphorylation of the large T antigen was
assessed, no reductions in phosphorylation could be
detected.

A Hepatite C é uma doença causada pelo vírus da Hepatite C (HCV), que afeta milhares de pessoas em todo o mundo. Representa um problema de saúde pública, sendo uma das principais causas de doenças e
transplantes relacionados ao fígado. Não há uma vacina contra o HCV e os tratamentos atuais não são eficazes para todos os pacientes tratados, apresentando muitos efeitos colaterais e alto custo de desenvolvimento. Desta forma, fica evidente a necessidade do desenvolvimento de novas abordagens terapêuticas que produzam uma melhor resposta virológica sustentada, efeitos colaterais mais brandos e menor custo de produção. Neste contexto, compostos naturais podem fornecer uma fonte alternativa para a identificação de produtos com potencial terapêutico. O presente trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar os efeitos de compostos naturais, isolados do veneno da serpente Crotalus durissus terrificus (complexo heterodimérico crotoxina e suas subunidades crotapotina e Fosfolipase A2), e do extrato das folhas de Pterogyne nitens (sorbifolina e pedalitina), no ciclo replicativo do HCV in vitro. Estes compostos foram testados quanto às suas atividades antivirais por meio de infecção e tratamento de
células Huh-7.5, e realização de ensaios de luciferase, western-blotting e imunofluorescência. Os dados obtidos demonstraram que tanto os compostos isolados de C. durissus terrificus quanto de P. nitens possuem efeito anti-HCV, sendo que alguns compostos inibiram mais de uma etapa do ciclo replicativo viral. Portanto, os múltiplos efeitos anti-HCV apresentados pelo tratamento com esses compostos demonstraram o potencial terapêutico de fontes naturais no tratamento da Hepatite C.
Hepatitis C is a disease caused by Hepatitis C virus (HCV) that affects thousands of people worldwide. Represents a public health problem, being one of the main causes of liver disease and transplantation. There is no vaccine for HCV and the current therapy is not effective for all treated patients, presents many side effects and high cost of development. Thus, there is an evident need to develop new therapeutic approaches which result in a better sustained virologic response, milder side effects and lower
production cost. In this context, natural compounds can provide an alternative source for the identification…

▼ Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is considered to be the leading cause of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). During the last years, several highly efficacy regimens of direct-acting
antivirals (DAAs) with excellent rates of success became available. However, therapeutic failure may occur in up to 10% of treated individuals.
Our aim was to study the profile of NS5 coding region RASs in DAA-naive genotype 1 HCV infected patients, as well as to ascertain an association between treatment failure and the presence of baseline NS5 RASs. A comparison between LiPA and Sanger sequencing genotyping methods was also assessed.
Plasma RNA from 81 DAA-naïve GT1 HCV infected patients was extracted, followed by an in-house nested RT-PCR of the NS5 coding region. PCR products were purified, leading to Sanger population sequencing on the 3130xl ABI Genetic Analyzer. Sequences were aligned using ChromasPro v1.7.6, and analyzed online in hcv.geno2pheno.org.
NS5A RASs were present in 28,4% (23/81) of all GT1 infected patients. The most commonly detected NS5A RAS was Y93C/H with a prevalence of 9,9% (8/81) in all GT1 infected patients. NS5B RASs showed a prevalence of 14,8% (12/81) in all GT1 infected patients, and were only detected in GT1b, being mainly represented by C316N accounting for 40% (10/25). The combined Q30H+Y93H NS5A RASs, were detected at baseline in one HIV/HCV GT1a co-infected patient who later failed a treatment with sofosbuvir/ledipasvir (SOF/LDV) for 12 weeks. An isolated Y93H mutation was also detected at baseline in a relapsing GT1b mono-infected patient. Overall 38,3% (31/81) of all GT1 HCV infected patients presented NS5 RASs at baseline, in which 58% (18/31) were co-infected with HIV/HCV.
The obtained data supports the usefulness of resistance testing prior to treatment initiation, as a statistical significant association was found between treatment failure and the baseline presence of specific NS5 RASs, namely Y93C/H (p = 0.04).

▼ Les traitements actuels contre le virus de l’hépatite B (VHB) combinent un ou plusieurs analogues de nucléos(t)ides qui inhibent directement la réplication virale en bloquant l’étape de transcription inverse. Ces traitements très efficaces sont pourtant confrontés à l’émergence de virus résistants à ces traitements. Ces résistances sont la conséquence de l’émergence et la sélection de mutants parfois complexes présentant des mutations à la fois dans le gène de la polymérase (pol) et de l’enveloppe virale. Les objectifs principaux de ce doctorat ont été d’étudier la sensibilité des variants résistants du VHB vis-à-vis d’analogues de nucléos(t)ides et de nouveaux composés nonnucléos(t)idiques agissant contre la nucléocapside, mais également de comparer les performances virales de différents mutants afin de comprendre le processus de sélection des mutants qui s’opère chez le patient sous pression thérapeutique. Ces études ont caractérisé la sensibilité de certaines mutations de résistance aux analogues de nucléos(t)ides, de souligner l’importance des modifications de l’enveloppe dues aux mutations de résistance dans le processus d’émergence et de sélection des variants dans la quasi-espèce virale et d’identifier de nouvelles molécules antivirales efficaces permettant, en combinaison avec les analogues de nucléos(t)ide, de diminuer fortement les phénomènes de résistance du VHB. Mieux comprendre les phénomènes de résistance, les procédés d’émergence, de sélection et de transmission des mutants du VHB pour élaborer les meilleures stratégies cliniques de combinaisons thérapeutiques peut réduire considérablement le nombre de personnes touchées par ce virus
Current therapies against the hepatitis B virus (HBV) combine one or more nucleoside analogues that directly inhibit viral replication by blocking reverse transcription step. These treatments are very effective, however, faced with the emergence of viruses resistant to these treatments. These resistances are the result of the emergence and selection of mutants with mutations can be complex in both the polymerase gene (pol) and the viral envelope. The main objectives of this PhD was to study the sensitivity of resistant HBV variants vis-à-vis similar nucleos(t)ides and new compounds non-nucleos(t)idic acting against the nucleocapsid, but also compare the performance of different viral mutants to understand the process of selection of mutants that occurs in patients under therapeutic pressure. These studies have characterized the sensitivity of some resistance mutations to nucleoside analogues, to highlight the importance of the envelope changes due to resistance mutations in the process of emergence and selection of variants in the quasispecies virus and to identify new effective antiviral drugs may allow, in combination with nucleoside analogues, to greatly reduce the phenomenon of HBV resistance. Better understanding the phenomenon of resistance, the processes of emergence, selection and transmission of HBV mutants to develop the best clinical strategies of combination…
