Galidesivir  (Synonyms: BCX4430; Immucillin-A)

Cat. No.: HY-18649A Purity: 99.13%
COA Handling Instructions

Galidesivir (BCX4430), an adenosine analog and a direct-acting antiviral agent, disrupts viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) activity. Galidesivir is active in vitro against many RNA viral pathogens, including the filoviruses and emerging infectious agents such as MERS-CoV, SARS-CoV, and SARS-CoV-2. Galidesivir inhibits some negative-sense RNA viruses with EC50s ranging from ~3 to ~68 μM.

Description

Galidesivir (BCX4430), an adenosine analog and a direct-acting antiviral agent, disrupts viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) activity. Galidesivir is active in vitro against many RNA viral pathogens, including the filoviruses and emerging infectious agents such as MERS-CoV, SARS-CoV, and SARS-CoV-2. Galidesivir inhibits some negative-sense RNA viruses with EC50s ranging from ~3 to ~68 μM[1][2][3].

IC50 & Target

RdRp

In Vitro

Cellular kinases phosphorylate Galidesivir (BCX4430) to a triphosphate that mimics ATP; viral RNA polymerases incorporate the drug's monophosphate nucleotide into the growing RNA chain, causing premature chain termination[1].
Galidesivir effectively inhibits the infection of Vero cells with YFV. The EC50 determined by the neutral red uptake assay is 8.3 μg/ml (24.5 μM)[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

Galidesivir (BCX4430) is active after intramuscular, intraperitoneal, and oral administration in a variety of experimental infections. In nonclinical studies involving lethal infections with Ebola virus, Marburg virus, Rift Valley fever virus, and Yellow Fever virus, Galidesivir has demonstrated pronounced efficacy[1].
Galidesivir (4 mg/kg; i.p.; twice daily for 7 days) is effectively in a hamster model of yellow fever (YF)[4].

Animal Model: Female Syrian golden hamsters (hamsters infected with YF virus)[4]
Dosage: 4 mg/kg of body weight
Administration: I.p.; twice daily for 7 days
Result: Significantly improved the survival of hamsters infected with YFV.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
