- Abstract
The inhibitory effect of glycyrrhizin (GL) on porcine respiratory coronavirus (PRCV) replication was investigated in vitro in ST cells using RT-PCR and Western blot techniques. GL effectively suppressed PRCV replication without causing apparent cell cytotoxicity in ST cells. The inhibitory effect of GL on PRCV was in a dose-dependent manner. The expression levels of both mRNA and protein of the PRCV nucleocapsid protein in ST cells were impeded by the increasing addition of GL, suggesting it is a potential effective antiviral component against PRCV in vitro.
