Research Abstract |
Oral administration of a Kampo medicine "maoto" showed antipyretic activity, and reduced influenza virus (IFV) titers in nasal wash and broncho- alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of mice at 2 days post infection. Maoto increased anti-IFV antibody titers in nasal wash, BALF and serum at 2 days post infection. Maoto also increased IFV-bound antibody titer in BALF and serum of uninfected mice. These results suggest that maoto shows anti-IFV activity through the increment of natural antibody.
