Abstract

Background

ADAM17 is a metalloprotease implicated in the proteolysis of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), known to play a critical role in the entry and spread of SARS-CoV-2. In this context, ADAM17 results as a potential novel target for controlling SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Methods

In this study, we investigated the impact on ACE2 surface expression and the antiviral efficacy against SARS-CoV-2 infection of the selective ADAM17 inhibitor JG26 and its dimeric (compound 1) and glycoconjugate (compound 2) derivatives using Calu-3 human lung cells.

Results

None of the compounds exhibited cytotoxic effects on Calu-3 cells up to a concentration of 25 µM. Treatment with JG26 resulted in partial inhibition of both ACE2 receptor shedding and SARS-CoV-2 infection, followed by compound 1.

Conclusion

JG26, an ADAM17 inhibitor, demonstrated promising antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2 infection, likely attributed to reduced sACE2 availability, thus limiting viral dissemination.

JG26 可减轻 ADAM17 金属蛋白酶介导的 ACE2 受体处理和体外 SARS-CoV-2 感染

背景ADAM17是一种金属蛋白酶，与血管紧张素转换酶2（ACE2）的蛋白水解有关，已知ACE2在SARS-CoV-2的进入和传播中起着关键作用。方法在这项研究中，我们使用 Calu-3 人肺部细胞研究了选择性 ADAM17 抑制剂 JG26 及其二聚体（化合物 1）和糖结合体（化合物 2）衍生物对 ACE2 表面表达的影响以及对 SARS-CoV-2 感染的抗病毒效果。结论JG26 是一种 ADAM17 抑制剂，对 SARS-CoV-2 感染具有良好的抗病毒活性，这可能是由于 sACE2 的可用性降低，从而限制了病毒的传播。
