08/01/1989 - "Their selectivity was greater than that of neplanocin A, particularly against vesicular stomatitis virus and rotavirus. "
07/01/1985 - "In vivo, neplanocin A afforded only marginal protection against a lethal infection of mice with vesicular stomatitis virus."
07/01/1985 - "Of a series of carbocyclic analogs of adenosine, in which the ribose moiety was replaced by a cyclopentenyl ring, neplanocin A, or (-)-9-[trans-2, trans-3-dihydroxy-4-(hydroxymethyl)cyclopent-4-enyl]adenine proved particularly effective in inhibiting the multiplication of DNA viruses (i.e., vaccinia), (-)RNA viruses (i.e., parainfluenza, measles, and vesicular stomatitis), and double-stranded RNA viruses (i.e., reo) in vitro in cell culture. "
05/31/1985 - "For a series of adenosine analogues a close correlation (r = 0.986) was found between their antiviral potency (against vesicular stomatitis virus) and their inhibitory effects (Ki/Km) on S-adenosylhomocysteine (AdoHcy) hydrolase; thus, in order of increasing inhibitory potency for both virus replication and AdoHcy hydrolase activity: (S)-9-(2,3-dihydroxypropyl)adenine less than (RS)-3-adenin-9-yl-2-hydroxypropanoic acid (isobutyl ester) less than carbocyclic 3-deazaadenosine less than neplanocin A. "
06/01/1989 - "(S)-9-(2,3-dihydroxypropyl)adenine, (RS)-3-adenin-9-yl-2-hydroxypropanoic acid, carbocyclic 3-deazaadenosine and neplanocin A, which have been previously recognized as specific inhibitors of S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine (SAH) hydrolase, gained a marked increase in their cytostatic activity (against tumor cells) and antiviral activity (against vaccinia and vesicular stomatitis virus) in the presence of L-homocysteine (10(-3) M).
