Product Data
Biological target:
Cetylpyridinium chloride is an effective anti-HBV capsid assembly inhibitor with an IC50 of 2.5 μM.
In vitro activity:
It was identified that cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) is a novel inhibitor of HBV. Using computational docking of CPC to core protein, microscale thermophoresis analysis of CPC binding to viral nucleocapsids, and in vitro nucleocapsid formation assays, it was found that CPC interacts with dimeric viral nucleocapsid protein (known as core protein or HBcAg) specifically. Compared with other HBV inhibitors, such as benzenesulfonamide (BS) and sulfanilamide (SA), CPC achieved significantly better reduction of HBV particle number in HepG2.2.15 cell line, a derivative of human HCC cells that stably expresses HBV. Taken together, these results show that CPC inhibits capsid assembly and leads to reduced HBV biogenesis. Thus, CPC is an effective pharmacological agent that can reduce HBV particles.

In vivo activity:
The anti-HBV activity of CPC was tested using a mouse model. CPC suppressed serum HBV DNA levels, decreased by 60% in day 2 and 45% in day 3 compared to the control (Fig. 6B, C). These results demonstrate that CPC represses HBV biogenesis by inhibiting the conversion of dimeric Cp149 to capsid structures through receptor ligand interaction with free dimeric subunits (Figure S4D). Together, these findings indicate that CPC is a potent drug for abolishing HBV. Reference: Virus Res. 2019 Apr 2;263:102-111. https://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0168-1702(18)30719-6
