Biochem/physiol Actions

Antiviral, anticancer, and antithyroid; decreases the susceptibility of restraint mice to H1N1 influenza virus
Epigoitrin is a sulfur containing alkaloid isolated from Isatis indigotica (Ban Lan Gen) that exhibits antiviral, anticancer, and antithyroid activities. Epigoitrin significantly decreases the susceptibility of restraint mice to H1N1 influenza virus. Epigoitrin and goitrin appear to show virucidal effect on influenza virus A (H1N1) in vitro and in ovo.
