The effect of 3-imino-5-phenyl-3H-1,2-dithiole (PDTI) on different steps of the replicative cycle of poliovirus type 1 in HEp-2 cells was studied. This compound inhibited the replication of poliovirus type 1 as shown by cytopathic effect and virus yield reduction. This inhibitory action was not due to a virucidal effect, nor did the cells to have been pretreated. Under one-step growth conditions 3-imino-5-phenyl-3H-1,2-dithiole caused the greatest inhibition if added within 1 h after poliovirus adsorption. [5-3H]uridine incorporation into RNA showed that PDTI reduced poliovirus RNA synthesis. In fact, in the presence of PDTI viral RNA synthesis was shut off completely at 2 h post infection, and at 4 h post infection viral RNA synthesis was reduced by 50%. The compound may have an inhibitory effect on the early transcriptional and/or replicative functions of the poliovirus genome.
