1.Study of Antiherpetic Efficiency of Phosphite of Acycloguanosine Ableto Over come the Barrier of Resistance to Acyclovir.

As has been shown previously, phosphite of acycloguanosine (Hp-ACG) exhibits equal efficacy against ACV-sensitive and ACV-resistant HSV-1 strains in cell culture. Intraperitoneal administration of Hp-ACG to model mice with herpetic encephalitis caused by HSV-1 infection was shown to be effective in protecting against death. In the present work, we continue the study of the antiviral efficiency of Hp-ACG against HSV administered non-invasively; namely in vivo, orally and in the form of ointment formulations. It has been first shown that oral administration of Hp-ACG twice daily for five days prevents systemic infection in mice caused by HSV-1. Mortality in the control group of animals was 57%. Administration of Hp-ACG at doses of 600, 800 and 1,000 mg/kg per day significantly increased the survival and median day of death of the animals compared to the placebo-treated control group. A comparative evaluation of the therapeutic efficacy parameters of polyethylene glycol-based ACV ointment and Hp-ACG ointment was carried out after a 5-day course in the model of an experimental cutaneous infection of HSV-1 in guinea pigs.
2.Thiolated Cyclodextrin: Development of a Mucoadhesive Vaginal Delivery System for Acyclovir.
Ijaz M1, Griessinger JA2, Mahmood A1, Laffleur F1, Bernkop-Schnürch A3. J Pharm Sci. 2016 May;105(5):1714-20. doi: 10.1016/j.xphs.2016.03.009.
The objective of this study was the development of a mucoadhesive vaginal delivery system for acyclovir (Acv). Sodium-per-iodate (NaIO4) was used to introduce aldehyde substructures into beta-cyclodextrin (β-CD) by oxidative cleavage of vicinal diol bonds. Cysteamine was covalently attached to β-CD-CHO via reductive amination. Ellman's reagent was utilized for quantification of free thiol groups attached and resazurin assay was used for cytotoxicity studies. Mucoadhesive properties were evaluated on porcine vaginal mucosa in comparison to intestinal mucosa. Quantification of thiol groups revealed 851.84 ± 107, 1040.44 ± 132, and 1563.72 ± 171 μmol/g of free thiol groups attached to the β-CD-SH851, β-CD-SH1040, and β-CD-SH1563, respectively. β-CD-SH derivatives at concentrations of 0.5% (m/v) did not show significant reduction of viability of Caco-2 cells within 24 h. Furthermore, water solubility of β-CD-SH1563 was improved 7.6-fold in comparison to unmodified β-CD.
