Laboratory analysis reveals novel thiourea compounds reduce HSV-1 replication, highlighting potential antiviral strategies.

Compounds 1C6L and 1H6L exhibited potent anti-HSV-1 activity with reduced cytotoxicity compared to 147B3.
A strain of HSV-1 resistant to 147B3 demonstrated resistance to all evaluated compounds, indicating shared mechanisms.
1H6L showed the highest selective index against HSV-1, suggesting a potential for safer antiviral treatment options.
While 1H6L prevented virion release, genomic replication still occurred, indicating multifaceted inhibitory effects.

Kondo et al. (2025) studied this question.
