    Abstract Hepatitis B virus (HBV) capsid protein (Cp) is necessary for viral replication and the maintenance of viral persistence, having become an attractive target of anti-HBV drugs. To improve the water solubility of HBV capsid protein allosteric modulator (CpAM) NVR 3-778, a series of novel carboxylic acid and phosphate prodrugs were designed and synthesized using a prodrug strategy. In vitro HBV replication assay showed that these prodrugs maintained favorable antiviral potency (EC50 = 0.28−0.42 µM), which was comparable to that of NVR 3-778 (EC50 = 0.38 µM). More importantly, the cytotoxicity of prodrug N8 (CC50 > 256 µM) was significantly reduced compared to NVR 3-778 (CC50 = 13.65 ± 0.21 µM). In addition, the water solubility of prodrug N6 was hundreds of times better than that of NVR 3-778 in three phosphate buffers with various pH levels (2.0, 7.0, 7.4). In addition, N6 demonstrated excellent plasma and blood stability in vitro and good pharmacokinetic properties in rats. Finally, the hemisuccinate prodrug N6 significantly improved the candidate drug NVR 3-778’s water solubility and increased metabolic stability while maintaining its antiviral efficacy.

    Abstract Introduction: Boron has attracted extensive interest due to several FDA-approved boron-containing drugs and other pharmacological agents in clinical trials. As a semimetal, it has peculiar biochemical characteristics which could be utilized in designing novel drugs against drug-resistant viruses. Emerging and reemerging viral pandemics are major threats to human health. Accordingly, we aim to comprehensively review the current status of antiviral boron-containing compounds.
    Areas covered: This review focuses on the utilization of boron to design molecules against viruses from two perspectives: (i) single boron atom-containing compounds acting on miscellaneous viral targets and (ii) boron clusters. The peculiar properties of antiviral boron-containing compounds and their diverse binding modes with viral targets are described in detail in this review.
    Expert opinion: Compounds bearing boronic acid can interact with viral targets by forming covalent or robust hydrogen bonds. This feature is valuable for combating resistant viruses. Furthermore, boron clusters can form dihydrogen bonds and bear features such as three-dimensional aromaticity, hydrophobicity, and biological stability. All these features demonstrated boron as a probable essential element with immense potential for drug design.

    Abstract Hepatitis B is a vaccine-preventable, but potentially life-threatening liver infection caused by the Hepatitis B virus (HBV). It represents an important health burden, with 257 million active cases globally. Current HBV treatments using nucleos(t)ide analogs and pegylated interferons cannot alleviate the situation completely since they are unable to cure the infection or reduce the amount of viral covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA). The HBV core protein is a small protein of 183 amino acids that participates in multiple essential functions in the HBV replicative cycle. Capsid assembly modulators that target the core protein are being developed. Sulfonamides are synthetic functional groups, found in several drugs. Herein, we provide a concise report focusing on the sulfamoylbenzamides as HBV capsid modulators, and medicinal chemistry strategies used in their design and development.

    Abstract Capsid assembly modulators (CAMs) represent a novel class of antiviral agents targeting hepatitis B virus (HBV) capsid to disrupt the assembly process. NVR 3-778 is the first CAM to demonstrate antiviral activity in patients infected with HBV. However, the relatively low aqueous solubility and moderate activity in the human body halted further development of NVR 3-778. To improve the anti-HBV activity and the drug-like properties of NVR 3-778, we designed and synthesized a series of NVR 3-778 derivatives. Notably, phenylboronic acid-bearing compound 7b (EC

    Abstract GLS4, a potent antiviral drug candidate, has been widely studied and entered into phase II clinical trials. Nevertheless, the therapeutic application of GLS4 is limited due to poor water solubility, short half-life, and low bioavailability. In order to improve the hydrophilicity and pharmacokinetic (PK) properties of GLS4, herein, we retained the dominant fragments, and used a scaffold hopping strategy to replace the easily metabolized morpholine ring of GLS4 with diverse sizes of spiro rings consisting of hydrogen bond donor and acceptor substituents. Potent in vitroanti-HBV activity and low cytotoxicity were observed for compound 4r (EC

    Abstract The effluents from nuclear mining processes contain relatively high content of radionuclides (such as uranium), which may seriously threaten the environment and human health. Herein, a novel adsorbent, porous hydroxyapatite, was prepared and proven highly efficient for removal of uranyl ions (U(VI)) given its high U(VI) uptake capacity of 111.4 mg/g, fast adsorption kinetics, and the potential stabilization of adsorbed U(VI). A nearly complete removal of U(VI) was achieved by porous HAP under optimized conditions. Langmuir model could well describe the adsorption equilibrium. The data fit well with pseudo-second-order kinetic model, suggesting that U(VI) adsorption is primarily attributed to chemisorption with porous HAP. Intraparticle diffusion analysis showed that the intraparticle diffusion is the rate-limiting step for U(VI) adsorption by porous HAP. After removal by porous HAP, the adsorbed U(VI) ions were incorporated into tetragonal autunite, which has a low solubility (log Ksp: −48.36). Our findings demonstrate that the porous HAP can effectively remediate uranium contamination and holds great promise for environmental applications.

    Abstract In search of efficient phosphorus resource recovery and pollution remediation should be highly concerned due to the view of phosphorus nonrenewable and eutrophication. This work presented a new insight into conversion of sewage sludge into favorable carbonaceous adsorbent for accelerated removing and recovering phosphorus from aqueous solution, what addressed the issues of phosphorus recovery and pollution remediation as well as sludge disposal. Ca and water hyacinth were evolved to decorate sludge derived carbon. Effect of mass ratio of sludge, water hyacinth and calcium carbonate on the morphologies and adsorption kinetics was investigated. The adsorbents (SW-Ca-112) resulted from sludge in the presence of water hyacinth and CaCO
