Influenza virus causes three to five million severe respiratory infections per
year in seasonal epidemics, and sporadic pandemics, three of which occurred in
the twentieth century and are a continuing global threat. Currently licensed
antivirals exclusively target the viral neuraminidase or M2 ion channel, and
emerging drug resistance necessitates the development of novel therapeutics. It
is believed that a host-targeted strategy may combat the development of antiviral
drug resistance. To this end, a class of molecules known as iminosugars,
hydroxylated carbohydrate mimics with the endocyclic oxygen atom replaced by a
nitrogen atom, are being investigated for their broad-spectrum antiviral
potential. The influenza virus glycoproteins, hemagglutinin and neuraminidase,
are susceptible to inhibition of endoplasmic reticulum ?-glucosidases by certain
iminosugars, leading to reduced virion production or infectivity, demonstrated by
in vitro and in vivo studies. In some experiments, viral strain-specific effects
are observed. Iminosugars may also inhibit other host and virus targets with
antiviral consequences. While investigations of anti-influenza iminosugar
activities have been conducted since the 1980s, recent successes of nojirimycin
derivatives have re-invigorated investigation of the therapeutic potential of
iminosugars as orally available, low cytotoxicity, effective anti-influenza
drugs.
