چکیده

Myrica rubra leaf ethanol extract was added to culture medium of Madino-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells inoculated with influenza virus, and the inhibition of influenza virus replication was measured. Myrica rubra leaf ethanol extract showed anti-influenza virus activity irrespective of the hemagglutinin antigen type in the influenza virus type A (H1N1), its subtype (H3N2), and type B.

High yields of influenza A virus in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells are promoted by an insufficient interferon-induced antiviral state.

Because of their high susceptibility to infection with various influenza virus strains, Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells have been widely used as a substrate for influenza virus isolation and vaccine production. However, MDCK cells are also interferon (IFN) competent, and the type I IFN response is commonly thought to be a factor strongly inhibiting virus replication. Therefore, the inhib...

FR191512, a novel anti-influenza agent isolated from a fungus strain No.17415. II. Biological properties.

FR191512, a novel polyphenolic compound, inhibited the infectivity of influenza A virus in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells in vitro. Furthermore, FR191512 showed good in vivo anti-influenza activity in a mouse model of intranasal infection with influenza A virus. The cytotoxic activity of FR191512 against MDCK cells was very weak.
