Digoxin
Digoxin effectively inhibits Na+/K+-ATPase and has the potential to treat arrhythmias and heart failure[1].
Digoxin treatment can reduce CHIKV infection of U-2 OS cells, primary human synovial fibroblasts (HSF), and Vero African green monkey kidney cells. Twenty-four hours after treatment with 1 μM digoxin, cell survival is only moderately compromised, which is 20 times the digoxin EC50 dose of the antiviral activity of CHIKV in these cells [1].

General tips | We do not recommend long-term storage for the solution, please use it up soon. |
Cell experiment:[1] | |
Cell lines |
Human osteosarcoma (U-2 OS) cells |
Reaction Conditions |
0.01 ~ 10 μM digoxin for 1 h incubation |
Applications |
Treatment of human cells with digoxin resulted in a dose-dependent decrease in infection by chikungunya virus (CHIKV). Inhibition by digoxin was cell type-specific, as digoxin treatment of either murine or mosquito cells did not diminish CHIKV infection. |
Animal experiment:[2] | |
Animal models |
Female mongrel dogs in which the main pulmonary artery had been constricted progressively until cardiac failure developed |
Dosage form |
1 ~ 1.2 mg Administered intravenously |
Applications |
Acute digoxin treatment decreased right atrial pressure and increased cardiac output in a canine model of congestive heart failure produced by pulmonary artery constriction |
