Biological Data
Biological description | Disulfiram reversibly stimulates SERCA Ca2+-ATPase and inhibits V-ATPase (EC50 = 24.8 μM). It also inhibits aldehyde dehydrogenase and matrix metalloproteinases (MMP-2 and-9). It also inhibits multidrug resistant P-glycoprotein and concanamycin A-sensitive ATP-hydrolysis. It displays antifungal, anticancer, anti-alcohol activity and also shows antiviral activity. It inhibits the SARS-CoV-2 Mpro protease (IC50 = 9.35 µM) and inhibits viral replication in Vero cells. |
