[Effect of 2-deoxy-d-glucose on enterovirus reproduction in HEp-2 cell cultures]. 1976

V P Shirobokov

The influence of 2-deoxy-d-glucose (2DG) on reproduction of some enteroviruses was studied. When 2DG was added to carbohydrate-free medium. It exerted a marked inhibiting effect on reproduction of poliovirus type I (virulent and attenuated variants) and Coxsackie B1, B2, B3, B5 and B6 viruses. The agent was inactive for virulent and attenuated poliomyelitis type II viruses. Poliomyelitis type III and Coxsackie B4 viruses were shown to be incable of multiplication in carbohydrate-free medium when the maintenance medium in cell cultures was lactalbumin hydrolysate in Hank's solution without-glucose. The inhibiting effect of 2DG on sensitive enteroviruses was irreversible and manifest at a concentration as low as 0.1 mg/ml. The effect of the agent was directed to the active stages of intracellular enterovirus synthesis. The possible mechanism of inhibition of enterovirus reproduction in the presence of 2DG is discussed.

D004770	Enterovirus	A genus of the family PICORNAVIRIDAE whose members preferentially inhabit the intestinal tract of a variety of hosts. The genus contains many species. Newly described members of human enteroviruses are assigned continuous numbers with the species designated "human enterovirus".	Coxsackie Viruses,Coxsackieviruses
D014779	Virus Replication	The process of intracellular viral multiplication, consisting of the synthesis of PROTEINS; NUCLEIC ACIDS; and sometimes LIPIDS, and their assembly into a new infectious particle.

D017955	Poliovirus	A species of ENTEROVIRUS which is the causal agent of POLIOMYELITIS in humans. Three serotypes (strains) exist. Transmission is by the fecal-oral route, pharyngeal secretions, or mechanical vector (flies). Vaccines with both inactivated and live attenuated virus have proven effective in immunizing against the infection.
