초록

Based on previous studies reporting the anti-prion activity of poly-${\text\tiny{L}}$-lysine and poly-${\text\tiny{L}}$-arginine, we investigated cationic poly-${\text\tiny{L}}$-ornithine (PLO), poly-${\text\tiny{L}}$-histidine (PLH), anionic poly-${\text\tiny{L}}$-glutamic acid (PLE) and uncharged poly-${\text\tiny{L}}$-threonine (PLT) in cultured cells chronically infected by prions to determine their anti-prion efficacy. While PLE and PLT did not alter the level of $PrP^{Sc}$, PLO and PLH exhibited potent $PrP^{Sc}$ inhibition in ScN2a cells. These results suggest that the anti-prion activity of poly-basic amino acids is correlated with the cationicity of their functional groups. Comparison of anti-prion activity of PLO and PLH proposes that the anti-prion activity of poly-basic amino acids is associated with their acidic cellular compartments.
