Problems solved by technology

[0020] Oleandrin has shown anti-HIV activity but has not been evaluated against many viruses
The triterpenes oleanolic acid, betulinic acid, and ursolic acid have been reported to exhibit varying levels of antiviral activity but have not been evaluated against many viruses
Few, if any, free virions are produced, and although virus is present in genital secretions, there is usually no detectable virus in plasma

Embodiment 15

[0130] Example 15 provides a detailed description of the in vitro assay used to evaluate TM (hot water extract of oleander) and PBI-05204 (supercritical fluid (SCF) extract of oleander) against Ebola virus ( Figure 1-2 ) and Marburg virus ( Figure 3-4 ) infection, both Ebola virus and Marburg virus are filoviruses.

[0131] The hot water extract can be administered orally, sublingually, subcutaneously, and intramuscularly. One embodiment is available under the trade name ANVIRZEL TM (Nerium Biotechnology, Inc., San Antonio, TX; Salud Integral Medical Clinic, Tegucigalpa, Honduras; www.saludintegral.com; www.anvirzel.com) is available as a liquid dosage form. For sublingual administration, typical dosing regimens are 1.5 mL per day or three 0.5 mL doses per day. For injection administration, a typical dosing regimen is about 1 to about 2 mL / day, or about 0.1 to about 0.4 ml / m 2 / day for about 1 week to about 6 months or longer, or about 0.4 to about 0.8ml / m 2 / day for ab...

Embodiment 6

[0133]Example 6 provides a detailed description of the in vitro assay used to evaluate the efficacy of cardiac glycosides in the treatment of Zika virus (a flavivirus) infection. In the presence of oleandrin ( Figure 5 ) or digoxin ( Figure 6 ), Vero E6 cells were infected with Zika virus (ZIKV PRVABC59 strain) at an MOI of 0.2. Cells were incubated with virus and cardiac glycosides for 1 hour, after which time the inoculum and unabsorbed cardiac glycosides (if present) were removed. Cells were submerged in fresh medium and incubated for 48 hours before being fixed with formalin and stained for ZIKV infection. The data demonstrate that both cardiac glycosides have antiviral activity against Zika virus; however, oleandrin exhibited a higher (almost 8-fold greater) antiviral activity than digoxin.

Embodiment 14

[0134] Example 14 provides a detailed description of the experiments used to evaluate the antiviral activity of the test compositions against Zika virus and Dengue virus. The data demonstrate that oleandrin shows efficacy against Zika virus and Dengue virus.
