The objective of this study was to investigate the inhibitory effect of chlorogenin 3-O-β-chacotrioside derivatives against H5N1 subtype of the highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) viruses and its molecular mechanism. A series of novel small molecule pentacyclic triterpene derivatives were designed and synthesized and their antiviral activities on HPAI H5N1 viruses were detected. The results displayed that the derivatives UA-Nu-ph-5, XC-27-1 and XC-27-2 strongly inhibited wild-type A/Duck/Guangdong/212/2004 H5N1 viruses with the IC 50 values of 15.59 ± 2.4 μM, 16.83 ± 1.45 μM, and 12.45 ± 2.27 μM, respectively, and had the selectivity index (SI) &gt; 3, which was consistent with the efficacy against A/Thailand/kan353/2004 pseudo-typed viruses. Four dealt patterns were compared via PRNT. The prevention dealt pattern showed the strongest inhibitory effects than other patterns, suggesting that these derivatives act on the entry process at the early stages of H5N1 viral infection, providing protection for cells against infection. Further studies through hemagglutinin inhibition (HI) and neuraminidase inhibitory (NAI) assay confirmed that these derivatives inhibited H5N1 virus replication by interfering with the viral hemagglutinin function. The derivatives could recognize specifically HA protein with binding affinity constant KD values of 2.57 × 10 -4 M and 3.67 × 10 -4 M. In addition, through site-directed mutagenesis combined with a pseudovirion system, we identified that the high-affinity docking sites underlying interaction were closely associated with amino acid residues I391 and T395 of HA. However, the potential binding sites of the derivatives with HA did not locate at HA1 sialic acids receptor binding domain (RBD). Taken together, these study data manifested that chlorogenin 3-O-β-chacotrioside derivatives generated antiviral effect against HPAI H5N1 viruses by targeting the hemagglutinin fusion machinery.
