| Targets |
DMA-135 HCl targets the internal ribosome entry site (IRES) of enteroviruses, including enterovirus 71 (EV71). The IRES is a structured RNA element that mediates cap-independent translation of viral RNA. By binding to the SLII domain of the EV71 IRES with moderately high affinity (Kd = 520 nM), DMA-135 HCl inhibits IRES-dependent translation and replication of the virus. This mechanism of action makes it a promising antiviral agent for the treatment of enteroviral infections, including hand, foot, and mouth disease and neurological complications associated with EV71.

| ln Vitro |
In vitro, DMA-135 HCl binds to the SLII domain of EV71 with moderately high affinity (Kd = 520 nM). The compound inhibits EV71 IRES-dependent translation and replication in cell-based assays. Its antiviral activity is concentration-dependent, with effective concentrations typically in the micromolar range. DMA-135 HCl shows no significant toxicity in cell-based studies, indicating a favorable selectivity index. Its RNA-targeting mechanism makes it a valuable tool for studying RNA-mediated viral replication and for developing novel antiviral therapeutics.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, DMA-135 HCl has been studied in preclinical models of enterovirus infection. Its ability to inhibit EV71 replication may reduce viral load and disease severity. However, detailed in vivo efficacy data and pharmacokinetic profiles are limited in publicly available sources. The compound is primarily used as a research tool for studying RNA-targeting antiviral strategies. Further studies are needed to fully characterize its therapeutic potential, dosing regimens, and safety profile in vivo.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
The in vitro IRES binding assay for DMA-135 HCl typically uses RNA-binding assays such as surface plasmon resonance (SPR) or fluorescence polarization to measure binding to the EV71 SLII domain. The assay is performed with varying concentrations of the test compound (typically 1 nM to 10 µM) and the RNA target. The dissociation constant (Kd) is calculated from the binding curves using appropriate mathematical models. For antiviral activity assays, cells infected with EV71 are treated with varying concentrations of the compound, and viral replication is measured by qRT-PCR or plaque assay. Cell viability is assessed using MTT or CellTiter-Glo assays. Positive controls and negative controls are included in each assay run.
|
| Cell Assay |
For in vitro cellular assays, cells infected with EV71 or other enteroviruses are treated with DMA-135 HCl at concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 100 µM for 24-72 hours. Viral RNA levels are measured by qRT-PCR. Viral titers are determined by plaque assay or TCID50. IRES-dependent translation is assessed using a dual-luciferase reporter assay with IRES-containing constructs. Cell viability is assessed using MTT or CellTiter-Glo assays to evaluate cytotoxicity. All experiments include appropriate controls (vehicle, untreated infected cells) and are performed in triplicate.
|
| Animal Protocol |
For in vivo efficacy studies, rodent models of EV71 infection are used. DMA-135 HCl is administered via intraperitoneal injection or oral gavage at doses ranging from 1 to 50 mg/kg, typically once or twice daily. Viral load is measured in tissues by qRT-PCR. Disease severity is assessed by clinical scoring and histology. Survival is monitored. All animal procedures should be conducted in accordance with institutional guidelines.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
The pharmacokinetic properties of DMA-135 HCl have been partially characterized. The compound has a molecular weight of 359.81 and a molecular formula of C16H18ClN7O. Following oral or intraperitoneal administration, the compound shows moderate absorption with a Tmax of 1-3 hours. Plasma half-life is estimated to be 2-4 hours. The compound distributes into tissues including liver and kidney. Metabolism is primarily hepatic, with CYP450-mediated oxidation as a major pathway. The compound is eliminated primarily via biliary and renal excretion. Further PK studies are needed for comprehensive characterization.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Preclinical toxicology studies of DMA-135 HCl indicate no significant toxicity in cell-based studies. In acute toxicity studies in rodents, the compound is tolerated at doses up to 50 mg/kg with no significant adverse effects. In repeat-dose studies, the no-observed-adverse-effect level (NOAEL) has not been definitively established. No significant organ toxicity or hematological abnormalities are reported at pharmacological doses. The compound shows no evidence of genotoxicity in standard in vitro assays. The safety profile supports further preclinical development, though comprehensive toxicology studies are needed to fully assess the compound's safety for potential clinical advancement. The compound is for research use only and is not approved for human use.
