In Vitro study of compounds from Huashi Baidu (Q-14), showing dose-dependent inhibition of SARS-CoV-2 with quercetin. Authors also perform a mouse study showing that Q-14 decreases SARS-CoV-2 viral load and reduces pulmonary inflammation.
Among 60 compounds, six (magnolol, glycyrrhisoflavone, licoisoflavone A, emodin, echinatin, and quercetin) showed dose-dependent inhibition of SARS-CoV-2, including two Mpro inhibitors (echinatin and quercetin) and two RdRp inhibitors (glycyrrhisoflavone and licoisoflavone A).

  • Huashi Baidu decoction (HBF) is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) formula that has both antiviral and anti-inflammatory effects.
  • In this study, the researchers identified six bioactive compounds from HBF that have antiviral and anti-inflammatory effects.
  • The researchers also found that HBF was able to inhibit the growth of SARS-CoV-2 in cell culture and in mice.
  • COVID-19 is a respiratory disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
  • There are a number of anti-COVID-19 drugs available, but they are not always effective.
  • Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has been shown to be effective in treating COVID-19, and Huashi Baidu decoction (HBF) is a TCM formula that has been shown to have both antiviral and anti-inflammatory effects.
  • In this study, the researchers identified six bioactive compounds from HBF that have antiviral and anti-inflammatory effects.
  • These compounds include magnolol, glycyrrhisoflavone, licoisoflavone A, emodin, echinatin, and quercetin.
  • The researchers also found that HBF was able to inhibit the growth of SARS-CoV-2 in cell culture and in mice.
  • These findings suggest that HBF could be a promising new treatment for COVID-19.

The researchers concluded that HBF is a promising new treatment for COVID-19 because it has both antiviral and anti-inflammatory effects. They also suggested that further studies are needed to confirm the efficacy and safety of HBF in clinical trials.

Significance Huashi Baidu decoction (Q-14), a famous traditional Chinese medicine decoction for COVID-19, has good effects on SARS-CoV-2 RNA clearance, promoting lung lesion opacity absorption, reducing inflammation, and ameliorating flu-like symptoms based on a series of clinical trials, having potent antiviral and antiinflammatory effects. However, due to the lack of systematic and in-depth research, little significant progress has been made in the study of TCMT-NDRD of HBF for COVID-19 management. Therefore, the aim of the current study was to identify key antiviral and anti-inflammatory bioactive compounds from HBF based on an integrative pharmacological strategy. These findings will greatly stimulate the traditional Chinese medicine theory-driven natural drug discovery against COVID-19 and promote the modern research of Chinese medicine.
