Abstract

This review (I part) presents an analysis of publications devoted to the ant-viral antiinfluenza activity of medicinal plants. It has shown that 63 species are found to be promising sources for obtaining anti-influenza drugs. Their roots, stems, leaves and fruits contain different chemical compounds inhibiting reproduction of influenza virus, both in vitro and in vivo. These compounds have different mechanisms of action. Some of them act upon components of the viral particle, others upon signaling pathways in the host cells. The first part of our review focuses on 28 species.
