Afin de se préparer à la seconde période de mise en oeuvre du protocole de Kyoto (2013-2020), la Confédération a mené une révision totale de la loi fédérale sur la réduction des émissions de CO2, entrée en vigueur au 1er janvier 2013. La Confédération a ainsi renforcé ses objectifs en matière de lutte contre le changement climatique et a introduit de nouveaux instruments d'intervention pour y parvenir. Depuis lors, la nécessité politique de réduire les émissions de gaz à effet de serre s'est encore accentuée. Lors de la COP21 en décembre 2015 à Paris, la Suisse s'est engagée à réduire ses émissions de gaz à effet de serre de 50 % par rapport à 1990 à l'horizon 2030. En outre, la stratégie énergétique 2050 ambitionne de ramener les émissions de CO2 par habitant dans une fourchette de 1 à 1,5 tonne d'ici à 2050, contre 5,3 tonnes par habitant à l'heure actuelle. Cette recherche mandatée par l'OFEV analyse l'impact de la politique climatique sur le comportement des acteurs économiques et leurs réactions face aux instruments publics introduits pour réduire les émissions de CO2. L'étude, réalisée au cours de l'année 2015, questionne la cohérence du dispositif institutionnel actuel ainsi que sa capacité à stimuler l'action des acteurs économiques en matière de réduction des émissions de CO2. Elle livre un diagnostic de l'efficacité, de l'effectivité et de la désirabilité de la politique publique menée par la Confédération.

Complexation between acyclovir (ACV), an antiviral drug used for the treatment of herpes simplex virus infection, and beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) was studied in solution and in solid states. Complexation in solution was evaluated using solubility studies and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (¹H-NMR). In the solid state, X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and dissolution studies were used. Solubility studies suggested the existence of a 1:1 complex between ACV and beta-CD. ¹H-NMR spectroscopy studies showed that the complex formed occurs with a stoichiometry ratio of 1:1. Powder X-ray diffraction indicated that ACV exists in a semicrystalline state in the complexed form with beta-CD. DSC studies showed the existence of a complex of ACV with beta-CD. The TGA studies confirmed the DSC results of the complex. Solubility of ACV in solid complexes was studied by the dissolution method and it was found to be much more soluble than the uncomplexed drug.

Proanthocyanidins from P. contorta leaves and from a commercial quebracho extract were isolated and characterized. Flavonoids, catechins and gallic acid were also identified in the extracts of P. contorta. Compounds were evaluated for their antioxidant properties and for their antiviral activity against an acyclovir-resistant herpes simplex virus type 1 strain. The low molecular weight phenolic derivatives and the proanthocyanidins from P. contorta showed the highest antioxidant activity. Purified proanthocyanidins from both P. contorta and quebracho showed the same maximum non toxic concentrations (25 µg/mL), with 82.2% and 100% of virus inhibition, respectively.

The structure-function relationship of interferons (IFNs) has been studied by epitope mapping. Epitopes of bovine IFNs, however, are practically unknown, despite their importance in virus infections and in the maternal recognition of pregnancy. It has been shown that recombinant bovine (rBo)IFN-alphaC and rBoIFN-alpha1 differ only in 12 amino acids and that the F12 monoclonal antibody (mAb) binds to a linear sequence of residues 10 to 34. We show here that the antiviral activities of these two IFNs were neutralized by the F12 mAb to different extents using two tests. In residual activity tests the antiviral activity dropped by more than 99% with rBoIFN-alphaC and by 84% with rBoIFN-alpha1. In checkerboard antibody titrations, the F12 mAb titer was 12,000 with rBoIFN-alphaC and only 600 with rBoIFN-alpha1. Since these IFNs differ in their amino acid sequence at positions 11, 16 and 19 of the amino terminus, only these amino acids could account for the different neutralization titers, and they should participate in antibody binding. According to the three-dimensional structure described for human and murine IFNs, these amino acids are located in the alpha helix A; amino acids 16 and 19 of the bovine IFNs would be expected to be exposed and could bind to the antibody directly. The amino acid at position 11 forms a hydrogen bond in human IFNs-alpha and it is possible that, in bovine IFNs-alpha, the F12 mAb, binding near position 11, would disturb this hydrogen bond, resulting in the difference in the extent of neutralization observed.

Nukleotidien ja oligonukleotidien analogeilla on merkittävä rooli virusten aiheuttamien tautien hoidossa. Tämän kaltaiset yhdisteet voivat estää spesifisesti virusten proteiineja tai aktivoida luontaista immuunijärjestelmää, jossa 2-5A:ksi kutsutut lyhyet 2´,5´-sitoutuneet oligomeerit ovat keskeisiä tekijöitä. Nukleotideihin ja oligonukleotideihin pohjautuvien lääkkeiden tehokkuus riippuu pääasiassa aihiolääkestrategiasta, jolla niiden sisäänottoa soluun tehostetaan. Tavanomaisessa aihiolääkestrategiassa negatiivisesti varautuneet fosfaattiryhmät suojataan rasvaliukoisilla biohajoavilla suojaryhmillä, jotta molekyyli läpäisee solukalvon helpommin. Solun sisällä aihiolääke muuttuu aktiiviseksi lääkeaineeksi, kun suojaryhmät irtoavat solun entsyymien, kuten esteraasien vaikutuksesta. Väitöskirjassa arvioitiin esteraasin katalysoiman aihiolääkestrategian soveltuvuutta 2-5A-trimeerille syntetisoimalla kaksi erilaista 2-5A-aihiolääkekandidaattia ja tutkimalla 2-5A:n purkautumista karboksiesteraasi-entsyymin vaikutuksesta. Suojaryhmäsuunnitelma perustui esteraasilabiileihin 2,2-disubstituoituihin asyylioksipropyyliryhmiin ja asyylioksimetyyliryhmiin, joilla suojattiin trimeerien fosfaatti- ja 3´-hydroksyyliryhmät. Tulokset osoittivat, että esteraasilabiilien suojaryhmien irtoaminen 2-5A:sta hidastui merkittävästi, kun yhdisteeseen kertyi negatiivista varausta. Lisäksi suojaryhmien hajotessa muodostui elektrofiilisiä alkyloivia aineita, jotka ovat mahdollisesti toksisia. Näistä syistä johtuen kehitettiin kuusi uudenlaista 2,2,-disubstituoitua 4-asyylitio- 3-oksobutyyliryhmää fosfodiestereiden suojaamiseksi. Suojaryhmät irtoavat sekä esteraasin katalysoimana, että lämpötilan vaikutuksesta. Tämä on hyödyllinen ominaisuus silloin, kun entsyymin affiniteetti negatiivisesti varattuun substraattiin heikkenee. Suojaryhmien hydrolyyttinen ja entsymaattinen stabiilisuus on helposti säädeltävissä, jotta suojauksen purkautumisen nopeus voidaan optimoida. Vapautuneet suojaryhmät eivät ole merkittävästi alkyloivia, sillä niiden ei havaittu alkyloivan glutationia.

Antiviral nucleosides are compounds that are used against viruses, such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV). To act as therapeutic agent, the antiviral nucleoside needs to be phosphorylated to nucleotide in the body in three consecutive phosphorylation steps by cellular or viral enzymes. The first phosphorylation to the nucleoside monophosphate is often inefficient and leads to poor antiviral activity. The antiviral efficacy can be improved by applying a prodrug strategy and delivering the antiviral nucleoside directly as its monophosphate. In prodrug strategies of antiviral nucleotides, the negative charges on the phosphate moiety are temporarily masked with protecting groups. Once inside the cell, the protecting groups are removed by enzymatic or chemical processes. Many prodrug strategies apply biodegradable protecting groups, the removal of which is triggered by esterase enzymes. Several studies have, however, demonstrated that the removal rate of the second and subsequent esterase labile protecting groups significantly slows down after the first protecting group is removed due to the negative charge on the phosphodiester intermediate, which disturbs the catalytic site of the enzyme. In this thesis, esterase labile protecting group strategies where the issue of retardation could be avoided were studied. Prodrug candidates of antiviral nucleotides were synthesized and kinetic studies on the chemical and enzymatic stability were carried out. In the synthesized compounds, the second protecting group is cleaved from the monophosphate some other mechanism than esterase triggered activation or the structure of prodrug requires only one protecting group. In addition, esterase labile protecting group which is additionally thermally removable was studied. This protecting group was cleaved from oligomeric phosphodiesters both enzymatically and thermally and seems most attractive of the studied phosphate protecting groups. However, the rate of the thermal removal still is too slow to allow efficient protection of longer oligonucleotides and needs optimization. Key words: antiviral, nucleotide, prodrug, protecting group, biodegradable
