Studies on transmissible gastroenteritis of swine. 3. The effect of selective inhibitors of viral replication on a cytopathogenic virus from transmissible gastroenteritis. 1967

A W McClurkin, and J O Norman

The effect on the plaque production of the Purdue strain of cytopathogenic virus from transmissible gastroenteritis of swine by 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BUDR), 5-iodo-2'-deoxyuridine (IUDR), actinomycin-D, puromycin, and amantadine-HCI (Symmetral) has been studied.Amantadine-HCI reduced the plaque-forming units of virus per ml by approximately 98%. Puromycin prevented almost all virus reproduction while actinomycin-D caused approximately a 22% reduction. Both IUDR and BUDR produced approximately a 20% increase in plaque-forming units of virus per ml. Swine testis cells stained with acridine orange early in the course of infection contained brick-red particles in the cytoplasm, indicative of a ribonucleic acid (RNA) type virus.

D007065	Idoxuridine	An analog of DEOXYURIDINE that inhibits viral DNA synthesis. The drug is used as an antiviral agent.	5-Iodo-2'-deoxyuridine,IUdR,Iododeoxyuridine,5-Iododeoxyuridine,Allergan 211,Herplex Liquifilm,Idoxuridine, 123I-Labeled,Idoxuridine, 125I-Labeled,Idoxuridine, 131I-Labeled,Idoxuridine, 3H-Labeled,Idoxuridine, Radical Ion (+1),Idoxuridine, Radical Ion (1-),Kerecide,NSC-39661,Oftan-IDU,SK&F-14287,Stoxil,123I-Labeled Idoxuridine,125I-Labeled Idoxuridine,131I-Labeled Idoxuridine,3H-Labeled Idoxuridine,5 Iodo 2' deoxyuridine,5 Iododeoxyuridine,Idoxuridine, 123I Labeled,Idoxuridine, 125I Labeled,Idoxuridine, 131I Labeled,Idoxuridine, 3H Labeled,Liquifilm, Herplex,NSC 39661,NSC39661,Oftan IDU,OftanIDU
D011691	Puromycin	A cinnamamido ADENOSINE found in STREPTOMYCES alboniger. It inhibits protein synthesis by binding to RNA. It is an antineoplastic and antitrypanosomal agent and is used in research as an inhibitor of protein synthesis.

D001973	Bromodeoxyuridine	A nucleoside that substitutes for thymidine in DNA and thus acts as an antimetabolite. It causes breaks in chromosomes and has been proposed as an antiviral and antineoplastic agent. It has been given orphan drug status for use in the treatment of primary brain tumors.

D003588	Cytopathogenic Effect, Viral	Visible morphologic changes in cells infected with viruses. It includes shutdown of cellular RNA and protein synthesis, cell fusion, release of lysosomal enzymes, changes in cell membrane permeability, diffuse changes in intracellular structures, presence of viral inclusion bodies, and chromosomal aberrations. It excludes malignant transformation, which is CELL TRANSFORMATION, VIRAL. Viral cytopathogenic effects provide a valuable method for identifying and classifying the infecting viruses.

D003609	Dactinomycin	A compound composed of a two CYCLIC PEPTIDES attached to a phenoxazine that is derived from STREPTOMYCES parvullus. It binds to DNA and inhibits RNA synthesis (transcription), with chain elongation more sensitive than initiation, termination, or release. As a result of impaired mRNA production, protein synthesis also declines after dactinomycin therapy.

D000547	Amantadine	An antiviral that is used in the prophylactic or symptomatic treatment of influenza A. It is also used as an antiparkinsonian agent, to treat extrapyramidal reactions, and for postherpetic neuralgia. The mechanisms of its effects in movement disorders are not well understood but probably reflect an increase in synthesis and release of dopamine, with perhaps some inhibition of dopamine uptake.	1-Aminoadamantane,Adamantylamine,Adekin,Aman,Amanta,Amanta-HCI-AZU,Amanta-Sulfate-AZU,Amantadin AL,Amantadin AZU,Amantadin Stada,Amantadin-neuraxpharm,Amantadin-ratiopharm,Amantadina Juventus,Amantadina Llorente,Amantadine Hydrochloride,Amantadine Sulfate,Amixx,Cerebramed,Endantadine,Gen-Amantadine,Infecto-Flu,Infex,Mantadix,Midantan,PMS-Amantadine,Symadine,Symmetrel,Viregyt,Wiregyt,tregor,1 Aminoadamantane,AL, Amantadin,AZU, Amantadin,Amanta HCI AZU,Amanta Sulfate AZU,AmantaHCIAZU,AmantaSulfateAZU,Amantadin neuraxpharm,Amantadin ratiopharm,Amantadinneuraxpharm,Amantadinratiopharm,Gen Amantadine,GenAmantadine,Hydrochloride, Amantadine,Infecto Flu,InfectoFlu,Juventus, Amantadina,Llorente, Amantadina,PMS Amantadine,PMSAmantadine,Stada, Amantadin,Sulfate, Amantadine
D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
