N-Nonyldeoxynojirimycin (NN-DNJ) is an inhibitor of acid α-glucosidase and α-1,6-glucosidase (IC50s = 0.42 and 8.4 μM, respectively).{52246} NN-DNJ (250 mg/kg per day) increases hepatic glycogen levels in fasted mice and gastrocnemius muscle glycogen levels in both fasted and fed mice. It is a chemical chaperone of β-glucosidase that increases activity by 1.65-fold in patient-derived fibroblasts homozygous for the N370S Gaucher disease mutation when added to the culture medium at a concentration of 5 μM, but inhibits β-glucosidase activity at concentrations greater than 60 μM.{52247} NN-DNJ inhibits viral replication in BHK-21 cells infected with Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) or dengue virus serotype 2 (DEN-2) and has protective effects in a mouse model of lethal JEV challenge when administered at a dose of 200 mg/kg per day.{52248}
