Abstract

Arbidol (, also known as umifenovir) is used clinically in several countries as an anti-influenza virus drug. inhibits multiple enveloped viruses and the primary mode of action is inhibition of virus entry and/or fusion of viral membranes with intracellular endosomal membranes. is also an effective inhibitor of non-enveloped poliovirus types 1 and 3. In the current report, we evaluate the antiviral potential of against another picornavirus, foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV), a member of the genus and an important veterinary pathogen. inhibits the replication of FMDV RNA sub-genomic replicons. inhibition of FMDV RNA replication is not a result of generalized inhibition of cellular uptake of cargo, such as transfected DNA, and can be added to cells up to 3 h post-transfection of FMDV RNA replicons and still inhibit FMDV replication. prevents the recovery of FMDV replication upon withdrawal of the replication inhibitor guanidine hydrochloride (GuHCl). Although restoration of FMDV replication is known to require protein synthesis upon GuHCl removal, does not suppress cellular translation or FMDV internal ribosome entry site (IRES)-driven translation. also inhibits infection with the related equine rhinitis A virus (ERAV). Collectively, the data demonstrate that can inhibit some non-enveloped picornaviruses. The data are consistent with inhibition of picornavirus genome replication, possibly via the disruption of intracellular membranes on which replication complexes are located.
