Mitoquinone mesylate targets SARS-CoV-2 infection in preclinical models
2022-02-25
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> To date, there is no effective oral antiviral against SARS-CoV-2 that is also anti-inflammatory. Herein, we show that the mitochondrial antioxidant mitoquinone/mitoquinol mesylate (Mito-MES), a dietary supplement, has potent antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2 and its variants of concern in vitro and in vivo . Mito-MES had nanomolar in vitro antiviral potency against the Beta and Delta SARS-...
