Abstract

High Resolution Image Download MS PowerPoint Slide Curcumin, a natural product with recognized antiviral properties, is limited in its application largely due to its poor solubility. This study presents the synthesis of water-soluble curcumin-poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate) (Cur-PSSNa n ) covalent conjugates. The antiflaviviral activity of conjugates was validated in vitro by using the Zika virus as a model. In the development of these water-soluble curcumin-containing derivatives, we used the macromolecules reported by us to also hamper viral infections. Mechanistic investigations indicated that the conjugates exhibited excellent stability and bioavailability. The curcumin and macromolecules in concerted action interact directly with virus particles and block their attachment to host cells, hampering the infection process.
