Description | Erythromycin estolate is a derivative of erythromycin, which belongs to the macrolide class of antibiotics and is often used to study a variety of bacterial infections. Erythromycin estolate has an inhibitory effect on bile acid transport and may cause liver injury, mainly cholestatic hepatitis. |
In vitro | Erythromycin estolate在不同细胞类型中有效抑制了HCoV-OC43感染,并在安全浓度下显著降低了病毒滴度。此外,研究发现erythromycin estolate能够在早期阶段抑制HCoV-OC43感染,并通过破坏病毒膜的完整性以不可逆的方式灭活病毒,其作用目标可能是病毒膜的脂质成分。综上所述,erythromycin estolate有望成为治疗HCoV-OC43感染的潜在药物。[1] |
