Here the effect and mechanism of two iminosugar α-glucosidase inhibitors, <italic>N</italic>-butyl-deoxynojirimycin (<italic>N</italic>B-DNJ) and <italic>N</italic>-nonyl-deoxynojirimycin (<italic>N</italic>N-DNJ), on human influenza A viruses was examined.</p></sec><sec><title>Methods</title><p>The viruses examined were a recently circulating seasonal influenza A(H3N2) virus strain A/Brisbane/10/2007, an older H3N2 strain A/Udorn/307/72, and A/Lviv/N6/2009, a strain representative of the currently circulating pandemic influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 virus.</p></sec><sec><title>Results</title><p>The inhibitors had the strongest effect on Brisbane/10 and <italic>N</italic>N-DNJ was more potent than <italic>N</italic>B-DNJ. Both compounds showed antiviral activity in cell culture against three human influenza A viruses in a strain-specific manner. Consistent with its action as an α-glucosidase inhibitor, <italic>N</italic>N-DNJ treatment resulted in an altered glycan processing of influenza haemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA), confirmed by MS. <italic>N</italic>N-DNJ treatment was found to reduce the cell surface expression of the H3 subtype HA. The level of sialidase activity of NA was reduced in infected cells, but the addition of exogenous sialidase to the cells did not complement the <italic>N</italic>N-DNJ-mediated inhibition of virus replication. Using reassortant viruses, the drug susceptibility profile was determined to correlate with the origin of the HA.</p></sec><sec><title>Conclusions</title><p><italic>N</italic>N-DNJ inhibits influenza A virus replication in a strain-specific manner that is dependent on the HA.</p></sec></div></front><back><div1 type="bibliography"><listBibl><biblStruct><analytic><author><name sortKey="Johnson, N"

Influenza epidemics occur almost every year as the virus undergoes antigenic drift but pandemics are rare and have occurred with the H1N1 (1918, 1977 and 2009), H2N2 (1957) and H3N2 (1968) subtype viruses. The 1918 ‘Spanish flu’ pandemic was by the far the most severe resulting in an estimated 40–100 million deaths worldwide,<sup><xref rid="DKU349C1" ref-type="bibr">1</xref></sup> while the 2009 swine flu pandemic caused an estimated 200 000 deaths worldwide.<sup><xref rid="DKU349C2" ref-type="bibr">2</xref></sup></p><p>Influenza viruses encode two glycoproteins, haemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA), and a transmembrane ion channel M2. Both glycoproteins play important roles in the virus life cycle. HA mediates viral attachment via sialic acid receptors on the surface of a cell and the subsequent fusion of the viral and endosomal membranes (reviewed in Skehel and Wiley<sup><xref rid="DKU349C3" ref-type="bibr">3</xref></sup>). NA, a sialidase, releases progeny virus particles from infected cells by removing sialic acids from the host cell and the virus itself.<sup><xref rid="DKU349C4" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>–<xref rid="DKU349C6" ref-type="bibr">6</xref></sup></p><p>The current measures against human influenza involve vaccination and the use of antiviral drugs. The effectiveness of vaccination is limited by the continuous antigenic drift of the virus as it evolves, and at the onset of a pandemic there is unlikely to be an effective vaccine available. Therefore, antiviral drugs can play an important role in mitigating the effects of influenza. There are two widely licensed drug classes, the M2 inhibitors (adamantanes) and NA inhibitors (oseltamivir and zanamivir). The M2 inhibitors are currently not recommended for the treatment of influenza due to widespread resistance of the circulating human strains of virus.<sup><xref rid="DKU349C7" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>,<xref rid="DKU349C8" ref-type="bibr">8</xref></sup> There are many examples of the emergence of virus strains resistant to NA inhibitors in several subtypes, including examples of resistance of H1N1pdm09 viruses, H5N1 viruses and the newly emerged H7N9 viruses. Importantly, resistance to oseltamivir became widespread in previously circulating human H1N1 viruses from 2007 until the extinction of these strains in 2009 and the emergence of the H1N1pdm09 virus.<sup><xref rid="DKU349C9" ref-type="bibr">9</xref>,<xref rid="DKU349C10" ref-type="bibr">10</xref></sup> Drugs that act as antivirals by targeting host cell processes may lower the risk of drug resistance in a virus and make an attractive strategy for antiviral therapy, particularly in combination therapy with drugs specifically targeting viral proteins.</p><p>The need to develop novel anti-influenza therapies led us to test the antiviral activity of two iminosugar compounds, <italic>N</italic>-butyl-deoxynojirimycin (<italic>N</italic>B-DNJ) and <italic>N</italic>-nonyl-deoxynojirimycin (<italic>N</italic>N-DNJ), against human influenza A viruses. These glucose analogue compounds can act as inhibitors of α-glucosidases in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) (reviewed in Dwek <italic>et al.</italic><sup><xref rid="DKU349C11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref></sup>); in addition, DNJ derivatives with a minimum alkyl chain length of at least three carbons can inhibit ceramide-specific glucosyltransferases (CerGlcT), thus inhibiting glucosphingolipid (GSL) synthesis.<sup><xref rid="DKU349C11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref></sup></p><p>The antiviral potential of iminosugars has been explored for human HIV,<sup><xref rid="DKU349C12" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>,<xref rid="DKU349C13" ref-type="bibr">13</xref></sup> hepatitis B,<sup><xref rid="DKU349C14" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>,<xref rid="DKU349C15" ref-type="bibr">15</xref></sup> hepatitis C (HCV),<sup><xref rid="DKU349C16" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>,<xref rid="DKU349C17" ref-type="bibr">17</xref></sup> bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV)<sup><xref rid="DKU349C18" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>,<xref rid="DKU349C19" ref-type="bibr">19</xref></sup> and the flaviviruses dengue virus and West Nile virus.<sup><xref rid="DKU349C20" ref-type="bibr">20</xref>,<xref rid="DKU349C21" ref-type="bibr">21</xref></sup> Moreover, long alkyl DNJ derivatives such as <italic>N</italic>N-DNJ also exhibit antiviral effects associated with the alkyl side chain, such as inhibition of the p7 ion channel of HCV in a genotype-dependent manner.<sup><xref rid="DKU349C22" ref-type="bibr">22</xref>,<xref rid="DKU349C23" ref-type="bibr">23</xref></sup></p><p>Many glycoproteins require N-linked glycosylation for folding and maturation. Nascent N-linked glycoproteins entering the ER are glycosylated with a high-mannose oligosaccharide precursor rich in terminal glucose residues that are sequentially removed by α-glucosidases. Subsequent α-mannosidase activity and further processing can occur (reviewed in Dwek <italic>et al.</italic><sup><xref rid="DKU349C11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref></sup>). The inhibition of α-glucosidases by <italic>N</italic>B-DNJ and <italic>N</italic>N-DNJ hinders the formation of monoglucosylated glycans, thus preventing interaction with the glycan-binding proteins calnexin and calreticulin (which mediate protein folding), and so preventing correct protein folding and glycan modification.</p><p>The ER chaperones calnexin and calreticulin mediate the proper cotranslational folding of both influenza HA and NA<sup><xref rid="DKU349C24" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>–<xref rid="DKU349C30" ref-type="bibr">30</xref></sup> so this interaction is potentially susceptible to inhibition. Treatment with glucosidase inhibitors inhibits the interaction of X-31 H3 subtype HA with calnexin and calreticulin<sup><xref rid="DKU349C24" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>,<xref rid="DKU349C25" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>,<xref rid="DKU349C27" ref-type="bibr">27</xref>,<xref rid="DKU349C28" ref-type="bibr">28</xref></sup> and similarly the interaction of N9 NA with calnexin and calreticulin is also inhibited.<sup><xref rid="DKU349C29" ref-type="bibr">29</xref></sup> However, considerable variation in the antiviral effects of α-glucosidase inhibitors against influenza A viruses has been observed in different studies. The release of infectious particles of the influenza A laboratory-adapted H1N1 strains A/Puerto Rico/8/34 (PR8) and A/NWS/33 (NWS) in MDCK cells treated with castanospermine (CST),<sup><xref rid="DKU349C31" ref-type="bibr">31</xref>,<xref rid="DKU349C32" ref-type="bibr">32</xref></sup> PR8 in chick embryo cells treated with bromoconduritol (BC)<sup><xref rid="DKU349C33" ref-type="bibr">33</xref></sup> and the avian influenza virus Rostock (H7N1) in chick embryo cells treated with <italic>N</italic>-methyl-deoxynojirimycin (<italic>N</italic>M-DNJ)<sup><xref rid="DKU349C34" ref-type="bibr">34</xref></sup> was not significantly reduced when compared with untreated cells. However, a reduction in the release of Rostock from chick embryo cells on BC treatment,<sup><xref rid="DKU349C33" ref-type="bibr">33</xref></sup> and of a reassortant NWS-N8 virus [which had the HA (H1) of NWS and the NA (N8) of A/duck/Ukraine/1/63] from MDCK cells on CST treatment was observed.<sup><xref rid="DKU349C35" ref-type="bibr">35</xref></sup> These studies suggest strain-dependent antiviral effects of α-glucosidase inhibitors on influenza viruses.</p><p>Since previous studies have determined antiviral activity against well-established laboratory strains of influenza A viruses, we tested more recent viruses for the antiviral effects of iminosugars. <italic>N</italic>B-DNJ has been used in the clinic for over 10 years for the treatment of Gaucher's disease without any serious adverse effects, and <italic>N</italic>N-DNJ, which has a longer alkyl chain than the latter, is potentially a more potent antiviral derivative. Here, we show that <italic>N</italic>B-DNJ and <italic>N</italic>N-DNJ exhibit antiviral effects against two viruses of the influenza A(H3N2) subtype, A/Udorn/307/72 (Udorn) and A/Brisbane/10/2007 (Brisbane/10), and a virus that is a representative of the A(H1N1)pdm09 virus, A/Lviv/N6/2009 (Lviv). Our studies show that <italic>N</italic>B-DNJ and <italic>N</italic>N-DNJ inhibit virus replication in a strain-specific manner, which is likely to be dependent on the origin of the HA. The inhibition of α-glucosidases in cells alters the glycosylation pattern of the virus glycoproteins synthesized in the cells, reducing the surface transport of HA and the sialidase activity of NA.</p></sec><sec sec-type="materials|methods" id="s2"><title>Materials and methods</title><sec id="s2a"><title>Cells, viruses and inhibitors</title><p>Canine kidney MDCK II cells came from Phillips-University Marburg, Germany and were cultured in MEM (Sigma) containing 10% (v/v) FBS (Perbio), 100 U/mL penicillin/streptomycin (Sigma) and 100 U/mL GlutaMAX (Invitrogen).

Equal volumes from each sample were taken and proteins from purified virus were separated by SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="DKU349F2">2</xref>). It is not possible to estimate the levels of virus protein between treatments due to possible handling losses during virus purification. However, the ratio of stained uncleaved HA, HA0, to NP can be estimated within a sample. This was done for two independent experiments. For Lviv there was no discernible difference between <italic>N</italic>N-DNJ- and control DMSO-treated cells, but for both Udorn and Brisbane/10 there was a recognizable drop in the HA content of the virion, manifested by a reduction in the ratio of Coomassie-blue-stained HA to NP by between one-third and two-thirds for both Udorn and Brisbane/10.

Our observed reduction in the sialidase activity of NA synthesized in <italic>N</italic>N-DNJ-treated cells could be due to a reduction in mature NA synthesized in cells for the H3N2 viruses or due to a reduction in the enzymatic activity of a misfolded protein, but we are currently unable to differentiate between these possibilities. Nevertheless, a reduced activity of sialidase could not be complemented by the addition of an exogenous bacterial NA, unlike the zanamivir-induced inhibition of the release of virus.<sup><xref rid="DKU349C36" ref-type="bibr">36</xref>,<xref rid="DKU349C58" ref-type="bibr">58</xref></sup> These results suggest that the <italic>N</italic>N-DNJ inhibited virus replication at the assembly and/or budding stage, rather than at the release of virus particles from infected cells.</p><p>The two α-glucosidase inhibitors <italic>N</italic>B-DNJ and <italic>N</italic>N-DNJ showed strain-specific antiviral effects whereas the non α-glucosidase inhibitor <italic>N</italic>N-DGJ did not. Reassortant viruses that have a PR8 background but carry the HA and NA genes of circulating viruses show that the strain-specific pattern of inhibition correlated with the origin of the virus glycoproteins. We observed that the reduction in sialidase activity of NA synthesized in <italic>N</italic>N-DNJ-treated cells did not follow the strain-specific pattern of the <italic>N</italic>N-DNJ-mediated inhibition of release of virus, and that the reassortant H3N1 virus showed similar susceptibility to Brisbane/10 (H3N2) in IC<sub>90</sub> values on <italic>N</italic>N-DNJ treatment, indicating that drug susceptibility is most likely determined by the HA, and that the NA of Lviv was not able to confer relative resistance on this reassortant; this indicates that the NA is not the main determinant of <italic>N</italic>N-DNJ inhibition. However, since the reciprocal reassortant H1N2 virus has not been made and tested for drug susceptibility, it cannot be excluded that such a virus may show an effect similar to the H3N1 virus on drug treatment.</p><p>We hypothesize that the differential susceptibility of viral strains to <italic>N</italic>N-DNJ treatment may reflect a differential sensitivity to misfolding or to the consequences of misfolding in any region where it might occur. For example, any effects of regional misfolding around the receptor-binding site could alter the specific ratio of HA and NA enzymatic activity to affect the infectivity of strains differentially. Another potential mechanism to explain differential strain susceptibility is a variation in assembly of the HA trimers between strains, with some accommodating misfolding to a greater or lesser extent. Trimerization is a sequence-specific event<sup><xref rid="DKU349C55" ref-type="bibr">55</xref></sup> so differences in the efficiency of oligomerization of the HA subunits for individual strains may enhance the α-glucosidase sensitivity such that we can detect differences in the overall antiviral effect. It is notable that we have observed some differences between the viruses in the relative incorporation efficiency of the HA into virus particles on treatment with <italic>N</italic>N-DNJ, which might be due to misfolding and to a failure to reach the surface of the cell for assembly and budding. This agrees with the observations presented and discussed above on the cell surface expression seen on immunofluorescence microscopy.</p><p>It is noteworthy that the glycoproteins of different strains of influenza virus can differ in the number of N-linked glycosylation sites and may also differ in their requirement for glucose-trimming for maturation. Of the strains used in this study, the recent A(H3N2) virus Brisbane/10, which was the most susceptible to <italic>N</italic>N-DNJ inhibition, has acquired five more potential N-linked glycosylation sites in the HA compared with the older Udorn, as previously noted.<sup><xref rid="DKU349C59" ref-type="bibr">59</xref></sup> These extra five glycosylation sites lie in the head region (reviewed in Skehel and Wiley<sup><xref rid="DKU349C3" ref-type="bibr">3</xref></sup>). Notably, the pandemic A(H1N1) virus does not have any glycosylation sites in the head region. The NA glycoproteins of the three viruses have a similar number of glycosylation motifs: Brisbane/10 and Lviv having eight and Udorn seven potential N-linked glycosylation sites.</p><p>We have yet to explain the inhibition in cell biological terms. For example, evidence implies that influenza viruses bud from lipid rafts (reviewed in Rossman and Lamb<sup><xref rid="DKU349C60" ref-type="bibr">60</xref></sup>). Budding defects may occur due to a reduction in the targeting of viral glycoproteins to lipid rafts due to an alteration in the lipids. DNJ derivatives with a minimum alkyl chain length of at least three carbons can inhibit CerGlcT, inhibiting GSL synthesis<sup><xref rid="DKU349C11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref></sup> (as do DGJ derivatives), thus potentially affecting raft formation. Another level at which these iminosugars may be affecting influenza replication may be on virus entry due to a reduction in the number of virus receptors, sialic acids, expressed on glycoconjugates on the cell surface by an inhibition of GSL synthesis (DNJ and DGJ derivatives) and α-glucosidase inhibition (DNJ derivatives). Future work will include examining relative viral protein turnover levels in cells and characterizing the effects of iminosugars on glycoprotein folding, trimerization and function, in addition to the effects on virus entry and assembly.</p><p>If the safety and efficacy of iminosugars as antivirals for influenza in humans were to be established, these drugs might be administered in combination with drugs targeting viral proteins to patients suffering from severe illness, and alone to those infected with multiple drug-resistant strains or those who are unable to take other available anti-influenza drugs due to underlying complications.</p></sec><sec id="s5"><title>Funding</title><p>This work was funded by the <funding-source id="cs1" rid="cn1">Medical Research Council UK</funding-source> through programmes <award-id id="cn1" rid="cs1">U117585868</award-id> and <award-id id="cn2" rid="cs2">U117581334</award-id>.
