Abstract:
[Objective] To determine the effects against human simplex virus type I(HSV-1) and adenovirus type Ⅲ(ADV-3) anti-viral in vitro and in vivo of eye drop prepared by mixed extract of Heartleaf houttuynia and Lonicera japonica.[Methods] By using different numbers of host cells with cytopathic effect(CPE) as the observation index,models of HSV-1 infected Vero cells and ADV-3 infected HeLa cells were established to determine the anti-viral effects in vitro of HLD with different dosages.Rabbit eye conjunctivitis model infected by HSV-1 was established to observe the anti-viral effects in vivo of HLD with different dosages,and the biopsy specimens of pathogenic eye conjunctive tissue were examined by routine pathological methods.In these experiments,a commercial acilovir eye drop(ACV) was used as the control.[Results] The minimum dosages of HLD to completely inhibit the CPEs of HSV-1 and ADV-3,the host cells were 32 mg/ml and 64 mg/ml respectively.After treatment with HLD,the inflammatory reactions of rabbit eye conjunctivitis caused by HSV-1 infection were obviously weak or disappeared.The curative rates of 1,3 and 6 g/ml HLD treating experimental rabbit eye conjunctivitis were 50.0%,83.3% and 100% respectively.Furthermore,the curative effect using 6 g/ml HLD has no significant difference compared to that using ACV drop.[Conclusion] HLD has a certain anti-viral effect in vitro and a stronger anti-viral effect in vivo,indicating the potential of HLD for developing a new drug to prevent or treat viral eye conjunctivitis.
