Wedelolactone (WDL) is a coumestan present in the plants Eclipta prostrata and Wedelia calendulacea which are used for treatment of a multitude of health problems in traditional medicine. It has previously been shown that WDL exerts antiviral activity against human immunodeficiency virus and hepatitis C virus. In this study, we investigated the effect of WDL on lytic human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection. We demonstrate a strong interference with HCMV replication as analyzed in multi-round replication settings. A more detailed anal. of the underlying mechanisms revealed that WDL acts at two distinct steps of the viral replication cycle. During immediate early (IE) times, we observe an inhibition of IE1/IE2 expression. Although WDL was reported to interfere with NF-κB signaling our results suggest the existence of addnl. mechanisms that impede viral IE expression. During later time points of infection, WDL induced a disruption of the interaction between EZH2 and EED, components of the virus-supportive polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2). Thereby, the stability of the PRC2 complex as well as the related complex PRC1 was disturbed leading to diminished viral DNA synthesis. Taken together, we identify WDL as a potent agent against HCMV which interferes at two distinct steps of viral replication. This study involved multiple reactions and reactants, such as 1,8,9-Trihydroxy-3-methoxy-6H-benzofuro[3,2-c]chromen-6-one (cas: 524-12-9Recommanded Product: 1,8,9-Trihydroxy-3-methoxy-6H-benzofuro[3,2-c]chromen-6-one).
1,8,9-Trihydroxy-3-methoxy-6H-benzofuro[3,2-c]chromen-6-one (cas: 524-12-9) belongs to benzofurans derivatives. Benzofuran derivatives have shown many biological activities, including antifungal and antimicrobial properties, and acting as antagonists of H3 receptors and angiotensin II. Benzofurans are stable towards alkali and readily polymerize on treatment with sulfuric acid, due to which they are useful for the preparation of low cost chemically relatively inert resins.Recommanded Product: 1,8,9-Trihydroxy-3-methoxy-6H-benzofuro[3,2-c]chromen-6-one
