Onconase
and bovine seminal RNase, two members of the RNase A superfamily, inhibit human
immunodeficiency
virus type 1 replication in H9 leukemia cells 90-99.9% over a 4-day incubation at concentrations not toxic to uninfected H9 cells. Two other members of the same protein family, bovine pancreatic RNase A and human eosinophil-derived neurotoxin, have no detectable antiviral activity, demonstrating a strikingly selective antiviral activity among homologous ribonucleases. The antiviral RNases do not appear to affect viral particles directly but inhibit replication in host cell cultures.
Onconase
, already in clinical trials for cancer therapy, and bovine seminal RNase have potential as antiviral therapeutics.
