RESUMEN
Both HIV and DENV are serious threats to human life, health and social economy today. So far, no vaccine for either HIV or DENV has been developed successfully. The research on anti-HIV or DENV drugs is still of great significance. In this study we developed a series of novel 2-Aryl-1H-pyrazole-S-DABOs with C6-strucutral optimizations as potent NNRTIs, among which, 8 compounds had low cytotoxicity and EC50 values in the range of 0.0508 â¼ 0.0966 µM, and their selectivity index was SI > 1415 â¼ 3940. In particular, two compounds 4a and 4b were identified to have good inhibitory effects on DENV of four serotypes. The EC50 of compound 4a and 4b against DENV-II (13.2 µM and 9.23 µM, respectively) were better than that of the positive control ribavirin (EC50 = 40.78 µM). In addition, the effect of C-6 substituents on the anti-HIV or anti-DENV activity of these compounds was also discussed.
