RESUMO
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the anti-HBV activities of deoxynojirimycin(DNJ)derivatives N—benzyl—1—DNJ(P-DNJ)and N—nonyl—1—DNJ(NN-DNJ)in vitro.METHODS:Human hepatoma carcinoma cell lines HepG2 2,2,15,which were transfected from HBV DNA,were taken as target cells,cells were cultured with different concentrations of test drugs, with HBsAg,HBeAg and HBV DNA in the cultured supernatant determined by time-resolved immunofluorometric assay and fluorescent quantitation PCR assay on day 6th and 10th day,meanwhile,with the cytotoxicity of DNJ derivatives determined by MTT assay.RESULTS:No cytotoxic effects was noted when the test concentration of P-DNJ and NN-DNJ was within 5～125?g?mL-1,HBsAg and HBeAg levels and HBV DNA secretion decreased significantly at a concentration of 125?g?mL-1.CONCLUSION:P-DNJ and NN-DNJ showed anti-HBV activity in the in vitro cell culture experiment.
