Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Objective of this study is to find novel anti-viral drugs especially anti-influenza viral drugs. Using cell culture and live virus system, we elucidated anti-viral activity of various natural products and chemicals. As a result, we found that many natural products such as food and plant extracts have anti-influenza viral activity with various mechanisms of action.These compounds and extracts may be useful for the development of novel anti viral drugs.
