The concentrations of the six extracts needed to inhibit 50% of Vero E6 cell proliferation (CC<sub>50</sub>) and 50% of viral replication (EC<sub>50</sub>) were determined. The resulting selective index values (SI = CC<sub>50</sub>/EC<sub>50</sub>) of the most effective extracts CBE, GSH, DBM, CTH and TCH were > 59.4, > 57.5, > 62.1, > 59.4, and > 92.9, respectively. Among these extracts, CBM and DBM also showed significant inhibition of SARS-CoV 3CL protease activity with IC<sub>50</sub> values of 39 μg/ml and 44 μg/ml, respectively. Our findings suggest that these six herbal extracts may have potential as candidates for future development of anti-SARS therapeutics.</p><sec

In this study, more than 200 extracts from Chinese medicinal herbs were evaluated for anti-SARS-CoV activities using a cell-based assay that measured SARS-CoV-induced cytopathogenic effect (CPE) <italic>in vitro</italic> on Vero E6 cells. Six herbal extracts, one each from Gentianae Radix (龍膽 lóng dǎn; the dried rhizome of <italic>Gentiana scabra</italic>), Dioscoreae Rhizoma (山藥 shān yào; the tuber of <italic>Dioscorea batatas</italic>), Cassiae Semen (決明子 jué míng zǐ; the dried seed of <italic>Cassia tora</italic>) and Loranthi Ramus (桑寄生 sāng jì shēng; the dried stem, with leaf of <italic>Taxillus chinensis</italic>) (designated as GSH, DBM, CTH and TCH, respectively), and two from Rhizoma Cibotii (狗脊 gǒu jǐ; the dried rhizome of <italic>Cibotium barometz</italic>) (designated as CBE and CBM), were found to be potent inhibitors of SARS-CoV at concentrations between 25 and 200 μg/ml. The concentrations of the six extracts needed to inhibit 50% of Vero E6 cell proliferation (CC<sub>50</sub>) and 50% of viral replication (EC<sub>50</sub>) were determined. The resulting selective index values (SI = CC<sub>50</sub>/EC<sub>50</sub>) of the most effective extracts CBE, GSH, DBM, CTH and TCH were > 59.4, > 57.5, > 62.1, > 59.4, and > 92.9, respectively. Among these extracts, CBM and DBM also showed significant inhibition of SARS-CoV 3CL protease activity with IC<sub>50</sub> values of 39 μg/ml and 44 μg/ml, respectively. Our findings suggest that these six herbal extracts may have potential as candidates for future development of anti-SARS therapeutics.</p><sec id="st1"><title></title><def-list><title>Abbreviations</title><def-item><term>SARS,</term><def><p>severe acute respiratory syndrome</p></def></def-item><def-item><term>CoV,</term><def><p>coronavirus</p></def></def-item><def-item><term>CPE,</term><def><p>cytopathogenic effect</p></def></def-item><def-item><term>TCM,</term><def><p>traditional Chinese medicine</p></def></def-item></def-list></sec></abstract><kwd-group><kwd>Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)</kwd><kwd>Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM)</kwd><kwd>Cytopathogenic effect (CPE)</kwd><kwd>SARS 3CL protease</kwd><kwd><italic>Cibotium barometz</italic></kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><body><sec id="sec1-1"><title>Introduction</title><p>Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is a highly infectious, life-threatening disease caused by a novel coronavirus, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) (Drosten et al., 2003; Ksiazek et al., 2003; Kuiken et al., 2003). In 2003, SARS spread quickly in over 25 countries and caused 8098 probable SARS cases and 774 SARS-related deaths. Although various candidate drugs have subsequently been reported to attenuate the disease (Cinatl et al., 2005; Hoever et al., 2005; Holmes, 2003), there are currently still no clinically approved or recommended antiviral drugs specific for SARS use. Currently, the most frequent treatment for SARS is antiviral and supportive treatment using a combination of ribavirin and corticosteroids (Peiris et al., 2003; So et al., 2003). However, ribavirin is only marginally effective against the SARS virus, and shows serious adverse side effects (Cinatl et al., 2003; Stroher et al., 2004). Since the SARS outbreak, considerable effort has been put into antiviral research to evaluate drug candidates for anti-SARS-CoV activity to prevent possible re-emergence of the disease (Wen et al., 2007; Wu et al., 2004). Notably, glycyrrhizin from licorice roots and a number of glycyrrhizin derivatives have been shown to possess demonstrable anti-SARS-CoV bioactivities (Hoever et al., 2005; Wu et al., 2004). And the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, indomethacin, was also found to confer potent antiviral activity against SARS-CoV (Amici et al., 2006). A number of traditional herbal medicines have also been reported to possess antiviral activity against SARS-CoV (Chen et al., 2008; Li et al., 2005; Lin et al., 2005; Ryu et al., 2010).</p><p>The SARS-CoV genome encodes various key protein molecules that may serve as potential targets for chemotherapeutic inhibition of viral infection and replication (Lai, 2005; Stadler et al., 2003). These vital targets include: the spike protein (S), the SARS-CoV main protease (3CL protease), the NTPase/helicase, the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, the membrane protein (M), the envelope protein (E), and the nucleocapsid phosphoprotein (N) and possibly other viral protein-mediated processes (De Clercq, 2004; Gallagher and Buchmeier, 2001; Groneberg et al., 2005; Holmes, 2003; Kliger et al., 2005; Lai, 2005; Stadler et al., 2003). Anti-SARS-CoV agents that can inhibit SARS-CoV replication may be involved in inhibition of one or more of the above protein targets including SARS-CoV 3CL protease. This important protease regulates the proteolytic processing of replicase polypeptides into functional proteins, playing an essential role in viral replication (Chen et al., 2002; Kuo et al., 2004). SARS-CoV 3CL protease is thus an attractive target for drug candidates against SARS.</p><p>In this study, we first investigated the effects of extracts of traditional Chinese medicinal (TCM) herbs on anti-SARS-CoV activity using a Vero E6 cell-based cytopathogenic effect (CPE) assay. The herbal extracts with anti-SARS-CoV activity shown by the CPE assay were subsequently evaluated for inhibition of SARS-CoV replication using ELISA. These bioactive extracts were then further investigated for inhibition of SARS-CoV 3CL protease activity. Our findings demonstrate that six previously unreported specific herbal extracts may have potential for use as drug targets for future development of anti-SARS therapeutics.</p></sec><sec sec-type="materials|methods" id="sec1-2"><title>Materials and Methods</title><sec id="sec2-1"><title>Preparation of extracts from traditional Chinese medicinal herbs</title><p>More than 50 traditional Chinese medicinal herbs were prepared and used as shown in <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">Figure 1</xref>.

In brief, Vero E6 cells (2 × 10<sup>4</sup>/well) were cultured in 96-well plates in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10 % fetal bovine serum (FBS) at 37℃ in an incubator with 5% CO<sub>2</sub> for one day.

Briefly, after test extracts had been added to Vero E6 cells and incubated for 3 days with SARS-CoV, the cells were gently rinsed with PBS three times and then fixed with 10% formalin for 5 minutes at room temperature. The 10% formalin was removed and the cells were fixed again in methanol/acetone (v/v, 1:1) solution for 5 minutes at room temperature. Cells were then blocked with 3% skim milk in PBS for 2 hours at room temperature, rinsed three times with PBS, and then incubated for 1 hour at 37℃ with 1:2,000 dilution of monoclonal antibody against the spike protein of SARS-CoV. All samples were then rinsed with three changes of PBS containing 0.05% Tween 20 (PBS-T buffer) followed by washing twice with fresh PBS at room temperature; and finally rinsed with 3% skim milk in PBS-T buffer. Cells were then incubated with a horseradish peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG for 30 minutes at room temperature. After rinsing three times with PBS-T buffer, a substrate solution containing o-phenylenediamine dihydrochloride, citrate buffer (pH 5.0), and hydrogen peroxide was added to each well. Plates were covered and gently shaken at room temperature for 10 minutes in the dark. The reaction was stopped by addition of 2 N sulfuric acid, and absorbance was read immediately at 492 nm on an ELISA reader.

The CC<sub>50</sub> values for all test extracts were detected to be higher than 500 μg/ml; interestingly, however, the positive control valinomycin had in fact a relatively low CC<sub>50</sub> value (75.01 μg/ml). This result suggests that these extracts had little or no interference with the growth of Vero E6 cells, and they can be considered as generally biologically safe to the host cells. According to the results in <xref ref-type="table" rid="T2">Table 2</xref>, we hence suggest that it is quite unlikely that the inhibitory effects detected for the tested herbal extracts on viral replication of SARS-CoV were due to the inhibitory effect on cell growth or viability of host cells. In addition, the selective index (SI), the ratio of CC<sub>50</sub> to EC<sub>50</sub>, was also then calculated to evaluate the potency of anti-SARS-CoV activity of test extracts (<xref ref-type="table" rid="T2">Table 2</xref>).

To assure adequate public safety and control of infection in the event of a re-emergence of this illness, effective anti-SARS-CoV agents may still be highly desirable or even necessary. Plant materials, especially for those that were previously used in traditional Chinese medicines, we believe are rich resources for development of the related therapeutic agents or drug candidates. In this study, we have employed a cell-based cytopathogenic effect (CPE) assay in SARS-CoV-infected Vero E6 cells for screening more than 200 extracts for candidate anti-SARS-CoV activity. Six herbal extracts from traditional Chinese medicinal herbs were found to exhibit significant levels (+ to +++) of anti-SARS-CoV activity at concentrations of 25 and 100 μg/ml (<xref ref-type="table" rid="T1">Table 1</xref>). As measured and compared by results from the CPE assays, this level of anti-SARS-CoV activity is better than that reported for glycyrrhizin (Cinatl et al., 2003), a compound with known anti-SARS-CoV activity, and extracts of other traditional herbs previously reported to confer anti-SARS-CoV activity (Lau et al., 2008; Li et al., 2005).</p><p>The CPE of viral infection may involve complex interactions of a number of molecular mechanisms between the SARS-CoV and test Vero E6 cells (Stadler et al., 2003). By quantification of the amount of spike protein present in SARS-CoV-infected Vero E6 cells (EC<sub>50</sub>), we showed that the anti-SARS-CoV activity of these extracts may act specifically on the inhibition of viral replication (<xref ref-type="table" rid="T2">Table 2</xref> and <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">Figure 3A</xref>). In addition, a MTT assay was adopted to determine the CC<sub>50</sub> of test extracts, and our data led us to suggest that the anti-viral activities we detected were apparently not due to the effects of cytotoxicity of test extracts on the host cells, as evidenced by the low EC<sub>50</sub> of the extracts. The selective index (SI) value was calculated as the ratio of CC<sub>50</sub> to EC<sub>50</sub> as an indicator of the potency of test phytoextracts. In comparison to the positive control, valinomycin (VAL) (Wu et al., 2004), CBE, GSH, DBM, CTH and TCH showed potent activities against CPE, and they also exhibited marked inhibitory effects on SARS-CoV replication. The SI values (<xref ref-type="table" rid="T2">Table 2</xref>) for these five bioactive extracts are significantly higher even than the SI value of the positive control valinomycin (SI = 41.4). The SI values (all > 55) of these five extracts are also higher than two other traditional Chinese herbs previously reported to inhibit SARS-CoV infection; <italic>Cinnamomi cortex</italic> was shown to inhibit SARS-CoV infection at a SI value of 23.4, and <italic>Toona sinensis</italic> extract was shown to inhibit SARS-CoV replication with an SI value of (12 to 17) (Chen et al., 2008). Taken together, we hence suggest that the six TCM phytoextracts reported here can inhibit SARS-CoV replication with little or no cytotoxicity to Vero E6 cells, and are may thus serve as useful candidates for future development of anti-SARS therapeutics.</p><p>The SARS-CoV 3CL protease is involved in the viral maturation process by cleaving the virus-encoded polyproteins (Chen et al., 2002). Because of its pivotal role in the SARS-CoV life cycle, the 3CL protease is recognized as an important target for discovery of anti-SARS-CoV agents. Among the extracts tested for inhibition of SARS-CoV 3CL protease activity, the IC<sub>50</sub> values of CBM (39 μg/ml) and DBM (44 μg/ml) suggest that these two extracts can exhibit significant inhibitory activity against 3CL protease. A number of studies have contributed to the identification of inhibitors of SARS-CoV 3CL protease [15, 28-29]. However, the IC<sub>50</sub> values of CBM and DBM for inhibition of SARS-CoV 3CL protease are also similar or higher than extracts from other anti-SARS-CoV medicinal herbs reported to date, including <italic>Isatis indigotica</italic> (IC<sub>50</sub> = 53.8 μg/ml) (Li et al., 2005), <italic>Torreya nucifera</italic> (IC<sub>50</sub> = 100 μg/ml), tea extract (IC<sub>50</sub> = 125 μg/ml) (Chen et al., 2005) and <italic>Houttuynia cordata</italic> (IC<sub>50</sub> = 1000 μg/ml) (Lau et al., 2008). We therefore suggest that the herbal extracts of CBM and DBM may be useful drug candidates against SARS-CoV 3CL protease and may have potential for use as alternative herbal therapies against SARS. The other four herbal extracts we tested other than these two herbal extracts may inhibit SARS-CoV replication via different working mechanisms including blocking of viral binding, inhibition of SARS-CoV fusion with the host cells, inhibition on activity of other SARS-CoV proteases and inhibition of RNA transcription (Kliger et al., 2005).</p><p>Recently, phytochemicals or extracts derived from traditionally used medicinal plants or herbs have been contemplated or clinically evaluated as alternative or complementary treatments for various diseases. Previous reports showed that <italic>Cibotium barometz</italic> inhibited osteoclast formation and has antioxidative, tyrosinase inhibiting and antibacterial activities (Cuong et al., 2009; Lai et al., 2009). In this study, <italic>Cibotium barometz</italic> was found to possess good anti-SAR-CoV activity and effectively inhibit SARS 3CL protease activity. The bioactive components responsible for these activities should therefore warrant further investigations. <italic>Gentiana scabra</italic> has previously been shown to confer a hepatoprotective effect (Jiang and Xue, 2005) and contains triterpenoids of secoiridoid and its glycosides (Chueh et al., 2001; Kakuda et al., 2001; Kim et al., 2009). Based on our previous study on anti-SARS-CoV phytocompounds (Wen et al., 2007), specific triterpenoids have been shown to inhibit SARS-CoV replication. We therefore suggest here that secoiridoid and its glycosides may contribute to the anti-SARS activity detected for <italic>Gentiana scabra</italic> extract, and secoiridoid and its glycosiedes may have potential for further evaluation as anti-SARS lead compounds. In our previous study (Su et al., 2011; Su et al., 2008), two specific polysaccharide-containing fractions from <italic>Dioscorea batatas</italic> tuber extracts significantly increased GM-CSF promoter activity in normal and inflamed skin, enhanced murine splenocyte proliferation <italic>ex vivo</italic> and improved regeneration of bone marrow cells <italic>in vivo</italic>. Other studies also revealed that the ethanolic extract from <italic>Dioscorea batatas</italic> can exert anti-inflammatory effect through the inhibition of NF-κB-mediated iNOS and COX-2 expressions (Jin et al., 2010). Interference of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression may be correlated with anti-SARS-CoV and other antiviral activities (Amici et al., 2006; Kim et al., 2010). We therefore hypothesize that the anti-SARS-CoV activities we demonstrated here may result from inhibition of COX-2 activity. <italic>Cassia tora</italic> has been found to confer anti-hypertensive (Hyun et al., 2009), anti-hyperlipidemia (Cho et al., 2007), anti-bacterial (Hatano et al., 1999), and anti-fungal properties (Kim et al., 2004). Anthraquinones including emodin, physcion, and rhein may be the active phytocompounds that confer these activities (Kim et al., 2004; Wu and Yen, 2004). Because emodin has already been found to exhibit anti-SARS-CoV activity via inhibition of the viral entry by binding with the spike proteins and interfering with the SARS-CoV 3CL protease activity, we hypothesize that the active phytochemical components responsible for anti-SARS-CoV activity of CTH may be contributed by emodin or another anthraquinone(s) suggested or known to present in CTH. <italic>Taxillus chinensis</italic> was shown to inhibit fatty acid synthase (Wang et al., 2008; Wang et al., 2006). Based on the previous study (Yi et al., 2004), which showed luteolin and quercetin can interfere with the entry of the virus to its host cells, we therefore hypothesize that specific glycosylated flavonoid and quercetin may play an effective role in this activity. Whether these flavonoids can also contribute to the detected anti-SARS activity warrants future investigation.</p><p>In summary, in this study we showed that six phytoextracts from Rhizoma Cibotii (狗脊 gǒu jǐ), Gentianae Radix (龍膽 lóng dǎn), Dioscoreae Rhizoma (山藥 shān yào), Cassiae Semen (決明子 jué míng zǐ), and Loranthi Ramus (桑寄生 sāng jì shēng;) can confer effective anti-SARS-CoV activity via inhibition of SARS-CoV replication. The CBM and DBM extracts also inhibited the 3CL protease activity of SARS-CoV. These findings suggest that these phytoextracts studied as a TCM experience may be valued as a useful approach for future development of anti-SARS-CoV therapeutic agents.</p></sec></body><back><ack><title>Acknowledgement</title><p>We thank Ms Miranda Loney, Academia Sinica, for professional editing of this manuscript.</p></ack><ref-list><ref
