Abstract

Could natural plant pigment (chlorophyll) derivatives (chlorophyllins) improve the safety of the antiviral Molnupiravir, used to treat COVID-19 disease? Molnupiravir, a specific SARS-CoV-2 antiviral, may cause adverse genetic changes and thereby create potential host cell damage (through genotoxicity and DNA stressors). In our opinion, this side effect of treatment could be reduced if the antiviral was taken as a combined therapy with chlorophyllins. Specifically, we hypothesise that chlorophyllins might improve the overall effectiveness of molnupiravir, typically used to treat patients suffering from COVID-19. Chlorophyllins, antioxidants derived from natural plant chlorophyll, are safe, effective and non-toxic antioxidants that could combat possible genotoxic flow-on effects of molnupiravir. In addition, as they possess antiviral properties, treatment with chlorophyllins may enhance the overall antiviral effect via a mechanism different to molnupiravir.

叶绿素能提高β -d- n4 -羟基胞苷相对于n -羟基胞苷的安全性吗? n -羟基胞苷是SARS-CoV-2抗病毒药物莫努皮拉韦的活性成分。

天然植物色素(叶绿素)衍生物(叶绿素)能否提高用于治疗COVID-19疾病的抗病毒药物莫努皮拉韦的安全性?Molnupiravir是一种特异性SARS-CoV-2抗病毒药物，可能导致不利的遗传变化，从而(通过遗传毒性和DNA应激源)造成潜在的宿主细胞损伤。我们认为，如果抗病毒药物与叶绿素素联合治疗，可以减少这种副作用。具体来说，我们假设叶绿素可能会提高molnupiravir的整体有效性，molnupiravir通常用于治疗COVID-19患者。叶绿素是一种从天然植物叶绿素中提取的抗氧化剂，是一种安全、有效和无毒的抗氧化剂，可以对抗莫奴比拉韦可能的基因毒性流动效应。此外，由于它们具有抗病毒特性，用叶绿素处理可能通过不同于莫努皮拉韦的机制增强整体抗病毒效果。
