Fisetin limits Chikungunya virus-induced apoptosis hallmarks in hepatocellular carcinoma cells
11 Jul 2025
Abstract excerpt
The study investigated the protective effects of fisetin on chikungunya virus (CHIKV)-induced apoptosis hallmarks in Huh7 cells. Fisetin significantly reduced CHIKV RNA levels and viral infectivity, outperforming Z-VAD-FMK and cisplatin. At 30 µM, fisetin markedly decreased (by > 90%) the number of infectious viral particles at 24 and 48 h post-infection (hpi). Fisetin also hindered CHIKV-induced DNA...
