Abstract

Background: The outbreak of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has originated from Wuhan, China and rapidly spread all over the world. This disease is caused by a coronavirus termed Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) that mainly infects the human respiratory tract. Herbal agents including Atractylodes lancea, Ephedra, Curcumin, and Echinacea purpurea had immunomodulatory effects and antiviral activities on other respiratory viruses including Influenza virus. They strengthen the innate immunity through increasing the phagocytic activity and antiinflammatory activity. These herbs could be used as a complementary therapy to prevent entry of COVID-19 and improve immune system. This review delves into the role and therapeutic compounds of various herbal agents in relation to immunity, their effectiveness in treating other viral respiratory illnesses, and their potential influence on COVID-19 disease.

全面审查具有抑制 COVID-19 感染潜力的草药建议

背景:2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)疫情起源于中国武汉，并迅速蔓延至全球。这种疾病是由一种名为“严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒-2”(SARS-CoV-2)的冠状病毒引起的，主要感染人类呼吸道。苍术、麻黄、姜黄素、紫锥菊等中药制剂对流感病毒等呼吸道病毒具有免疫调节作用和抗病毒活性。它们通过提高机体的吞噬活性和抗炎活性来增强机体的先天免疫功能。这些草药可以作为预防COVID-19进入和提高免疫系统的补充疗法。本文综述了各种草药在免疫方面的作用和治疗化合物，治疗其他病毒性呼吸道疾病的有效性，以及它们对COVID-19疾病的潜在影响。
