  • Abstract
    Robustaflavone, a naturally occurring biflavanoid isolated from the seed kernel extract of Rhus succedanea, was found to be a potent in vitro inhibitor of hepatitis B, with an effective concentration (EC50) of 0.25 μM and an in vitro selectivity index (IC50/EC90) of 153. Further studies suggested that inhibition of HBV DNA polymerase is the mechanism of action.
