ABSTRACT
Dengue virus (DENV) infection poses a global health threat, leading to severe conditions with the potential for critical outcomes. Currently, there are no specific drugs available whereas the vaccine does not offer comprehensive protection across all DENV serotypes. Therefore, the development of potential antiviral agents is necessary to reduce the severity risk and interrupt the transmission circuit. The search for effective antiviral agents against DENV has predominantly focused on natural resources, particularly those demonstrating diverse biological activities and high safety profiles. Cyanobacteria and algae including Leptolyngbya sp., Spirulina sp., Chlorella sp., and Sargassum spp., which are prevalent species in Thailand, have been reported for their diverse biological activities and high safety profiles. However, their anti-DENV activity has not been documented. In this study, the screening assay was performed to compare the antiviral activity against DENV of crude polysaccharide and ethanolic extracts derived from 4 species of cyanobacteria and algae in Vero cells. Polysaccharide extracts from Sargassum spp. were the most effective in inhibiting DENV-2 infection under co-infection conditions, where the virus was exposed to the extract at the time of infection. Treatment of the extract significantly reduced the ability of DENV to bind to the host cells to 47.87 ± 3.88 % while treatment upon virus binding step had no antiviral effect suggesting the underlaying mechanism of the extract on interfering virus binding step. Fucoidan, a key bioactive substance in Sargassum polysaccharide, showed to reduce DENV-2 infection to 26.59 ± 5.01 %, 20.46 ± 6.58 % under the co-infection condition in Vero and A549 cells, respectively. In accompanied with Sargassum polysaccharide, fucoidan disturbed the virus binding to the host cells. These findings warrant further development and exploration of the Sargassum-derived polysaccharide, fucoidan, as a promising candidate for combating DENV infections.
