Description:
SMU-V18 is a vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) inhibitor, with an EC50 of 6.2 μM. SMU-V18 inhibits VSV-GFP fluorescence intensity, viral mRNA/protein expression, and progeny virus replication. SMU-V18 interferes with early viral infection stages, also effective against wild-type VSV (VSV-WT). SMU-V18 inhibits VSV-GFP in mouse tissues and prolongs survival. SMU-V18 can be used for the study of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) infection.
