Mycophenolic acid (Mycophenolate) is an inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase(IMPDH) inhibitor with anti-proliferative activity.

Vidarabine (Adenine Arabinoside) is a nucleoside antibiotic isolated from Streptomyces antibioticus. It has some antineoplastic properties and has broad spectrum activity against DNA viruses in cell cultures and significant antiviral activity against infections caused by a variety of viruses such as the herpes viruses, the VACCINIA VIRUS and varicella zoster virus.

Acetyl-L-carnitine hydrochloride (Acetyl L-carnitine hydrochloride) is a nutritional supplement composed of the hydrochloride salt form of the acetylated form of the endogenously produced L-carnitine, with potential neuroprotective, cognitive-enhancing, anti-depressive and immunomodulating activities. It may also relieve peripheral neuropathy induced by chemotherapy, diabetes or other diseases. In addition, acetyl-L-carnitine may modulate the immune response by increasing T-lymphocytes maturation and may downregulate pro-inflammatory cytokines in response to viruses, such as SARS-CoV-2. It may also disrupt the ACE2 signaling pathway and inhibit the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS).

L-Lysine (Aminutrin) is one of nine essential amino acids in humans required for growth and tissue repair, Lysine is supplied by many foods, especially red meats, fish, and dairy products. Lysine seems to be active against herpes simplex viruses and present in many forms of diet supplements. The mechanism underlying this effect is based on the viral need for amino acid arginine; lysine competes with arginine for absorption and entry into cells. Lysine inhibits HSV growth by knocking out arginine.

Dodecyl gallate is an antioxidant commonly used in food manufacturing and in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. It is also active against animal viruses such as African swine fever virus (ASFV).

Aristeromycin (U 99468) is a broad-spectrum antiviral antibiotic that targets RNA viruses and is an inhibitor of S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase (AHCY).

Filipin complex is a 28-membered cyclopentene macrolide antifungal antibiotic produced by a mixture of S. filipinensis, S. avermitilis, and S. miharaensis that inhibits the entry of PRRSV viruses into cells.

Lactimidomycin, isolated from Streptomyces, is an inhibitor of eukaryotic translation elongation. It is also a potent and non-toxic inhibitor of dengue virus 2 and other RNA viruses. Lactimidomycin has an antiproliferative effect on tumor cell lines. It i

Tyrothricin, a polypeptide antibiotic mixture isolated from Bacillus brevis, consists of tyrocidines and gramicidins, and displays activity against bacteria, fungi, and some viruses.

Cephaeline hydrochloride, a phenolic alkaloid found in Indian Ipecac, effectively inhibits the infection of viruses ZIKV and EBOV.

1. (2S)-Isoxanthohumol shows an antiviral activity towards herpes viruses (HSV1 and HSV2) and bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV). 2. Isoxanthohumol is a polyphenol with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antiangiogenic properties, seems to regulate in vivo vascular proliferation and stabilization and the EC-VSMC-inflammatory crosstalk.

Ammonium Glycyrrhizinate (Glycyram) inhibits the cytopathology and growth of several unrelated DNA/RNA viruses.

Dihydromaniwamycin E, a heat-shock metabolite, exhibits antiviral activity against influenza and SARS-CoV-2 viruses [1].

N4-Benzoyl-2′-deoxycytidine is a synthetic nucleoside analog of the natural nucleoside deoxycytidine (dC), a competitive inhibitor of DNA polymerase. In vitro studies have shown that it inhibits replication in viruses, bacteria and eukaryotic cells. It has also been shown to inhibit tumor cell growth in animal models.

Funiculosin, a neutral lipophilic antibiotic, demonstrates inhibitory effects against both DNA and RNA viruses, in addition to possessing antifungal properties. It effectively combats infections induced by pathogenic fungi within primary chicken embryo fibroblasts [1].

20-Deoxynarasin exhibits activity against Gram-positive bacteria, mycoplasma, coccidia, and viruses, and it also promotes growth.

Methyl 3-O-feruloylquinate inhibits the activity of bacteria and viruses and to regulate immunity.

Distamycin is a natural antibiotic that can be isolated from the Streptomyces distallicus strain. It is active against certain viruses, Gram-positive bacteria and protozoa.

Guanine-7-oxide (Guanine 7-N-oxide) is an antitumor antibiotic with antitumor and anti-Candida albicans activities. It inhibits the replication of viruses such as herpes virus, infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV), and infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV). The compound also demonstrates significant activity against mouse L1210 leukemia cells.
