Product Data:
Biological target: Pantethine is a dimeric form of pantothenic acid, is an intermediate in the production of Coenzyme A, is available as a dietary supplement, and is used to treat acne and improve the blood-cholesterol profile.
In vitro activity: Here, this study explored the potential antiviral effects of pantethine in two in vitro experimental models of SARS-CoV-2 infection, in Vero E6 cells and in Calu-3a cells. Pantethine reduced the infection of cells by SARS-CoV-2 in both preinfection and postinfection treatment regimens. Accordingly, cellular expression of the viral spike and nucleocapsid proteins was substantially reduced, and we observed a significant reduction in viral copy numbers in the supernatant of cells treated with pantethine. In addition, pantethine inhibited the infection-induced increase in TMPRSS2 and HECT E3 ligase expression in infected cells as well as the increase in antiviral interferon-beta response and inflammatory gene expression in Calu-3a cells. Reference: Sci Rep. 2023 Feb 8;13(1):2237. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36754974/
In vivo activity: These properties of pantethine prompted the study to investigate its potential benefits in vivo in the 5XFAD (Tg) mouse model of Alzheimer's disease (AD). This study observed that long-term pantethine treatment significantly reduced glial reactivity and Αβ deposition, and abrogated behavioral alteration in Tg mice. Moreover, the transcriptomic profiles revealed that after pantethine treatment, the expression of genes differentially expressed in Tg mice, and in particular those known to be related to AD, were significantly alleviated.
