This invention relates to anti-viral drugs such as Helioxanthin and its analogs. The present compounds may be used alone or in combination with other drugs for the treatment of Hepatitis B virus (HBV), Hepatitis C virus (HCV), Yellow Fever, Dengue Virus, Japanese Encephalitis, West Nile virus and related flaviviruses. In addition, compounds according to the present invention can be used to prevent hepatoma secondary to virus infection as well as other infections or disease states which are secondary to the virus infection.

Inhibition and treatment of Hepatitis B virus and Flavivirus by Helioxanthin and its analogs

Herein disclosed are rapid real-time isothermal multiplex methods of detecting, identifying and quantifying bacterial, viral, and protozoan nucleic acids in a sample. These include contacting the sample with two or more sets of pathogen-specific reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification primers and novel oligofluorophores specific for the target bacterial, viral, and parasitic nucleic acids of interest such as human immunodeficiency virus, Ebola virus, Marburg virus, Yellow fever virus, hepatitis-B virus, Lassa fever virus, Plasmodium, hepatitis-C virus, hepatitis-E virus, dengue virus, Chikungunya virus, Japanese Encephalitis virus, Middle Eastern Respiratory Syndrome Corona virus, Mycobacterium, West Nile virus, Cytomegalovirus, Parvovirus, Leishmania, Trypanosoma, and Zika virus nucleic acids, under conditions sufficient to produce detectable real-time amplification signals in about 10 to 40 minutes. The amplification signals are produced by pathogen-specific fluorogenic labels included in one or more of the primers. Also, novel reaction and sample lysis buffers, primers, and kits for rapid multiplex detection, quantification, and identification of bacterial, viral, and protozoan nucleic acids by real-time isothermal amplification are herein disclosed.
