Andrographolide, fucoidan, or a combination of both compounds were evaluated to determine their effects on the antiviral response in Atlantic salmon macrophage-like cell line (SHK-1) infected with infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV). We assessed transcript expression levels key molecules involved interferon (IFN)-dependent response, as well viral load cells treated these compounds. In non-infected cells, incubation either andrographolide, mixture resulted an increase IFNα1 and various interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs). IPNV-infected treatment fucoidan andrographolide separately did not significantly enhance compared that had previously been contrast, led marked viperin significant reduction load. Overall, combining greater IPNV than noted when administered individually. Our findings suggest pre-incubation this promotes establishment protective state against IPNV, likely mediated by IFN-dependent response.

Acyclovir (ACV) is a potentially effective antiviral medication; however, it has serious drawback, which its poor solubility, bioavailability, and short half-life. The goal of this study to improve drawbacks through the synthesis nanogels. In study, cross-linked hyaluronic acid-grafted poly(acrylamide-co-itaconic acid) nanogel synthesized successfully free radical polymerization used as safe pH-responsive carrier for ACV. nanogels showed pH response in vitro vivo. prepared C5 (1:1 ratio acrylamide: itaconic), had highest grafting efficiency, maximum swelling, drug loading, release 7.4, higher than 1.2. Also, C5, large surface area, good stability, matrices shrank acidic medium protected drug, while basic medium, expanded released ACV sustained manner improved bioavailability half-life

Cordyceps militaris is a valuable medicinal fungus which has been widely used as traditional medicine in East Asia. Compared to the well-known C. sinensis, can produce similar fermented metabolites with various biological activities, but it requires shorter culture time and simpler conditions, therefore, attracted increasing attention recent years. The purpose of this review was organize current studies regarding metabolite production from relative their functions. We combined findings correlate different fermentation modes obtain full view processes yield product. While research on not uncommon date, its high value still highlights importance developing more modern for industrial production.

The issue of antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections, coupled with the rise in viral pandemics and slow development new antibacterial antiviral treatments, underscores critical need for novel strategies to mitigate spread drug-resistant pathogens, enhance efficacy existing therapies, accelerate discovery deployment innovative antimicrobial solutions. One promising approach address these challenges is dietary supplementation non-digestible oligosaccharides (NDOs). NDOs, including human milk (HMOs), play a vital role shaping sustaining healthy gut microbiota. Beyond stimulating growth activity beneficial bacteria, NDOs can also interact directly pathogenic bacteria viruses. Their properties arise from their unique interactions pathogens ability modulate host’s immune system. function as decoy receptors, inhibit pathogen growth, bind toxins, stimulate host response, exhibit anti-biofilm properties, barrier protection. However, notable gap exists comprehensive assessment vivo clinical data on this topic.
