Fourteen melandrin derivatives(I-XIV) were investigated on analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antiviral activities . Compound I [N-(p-hydroxybenzoyl)-5-hydroxyanthranilic acid methvl ester], Xll [N-(2-phenoxypropionyl)-5-hydroxy anthranilic acid propyl ester and XIV [N-(2-phenoxypropionyl)-5-hydroxyanthranilic acid exhibited analgesic activity in tail pressure and Randall-Selitto method. But no anti-inflammatory activity was shown. Compound I exhibited weak antiviral activity on Herpes simplex virus type I F strain by virus-induced cytopathic effect(CPE) assay and it's selectivity index(Sl) was 8.17.

A preparation of water soluble components (EA) was made from carpophores of Elfvingia applanata (Pers.) Karst and its in vitro antiviral activity on vesicular stomatitis virus [(Indiana serotype, VSV(IND)] was investigated by plaque reduction assay. EA exhibited potent antiviral activity on VSV(IND) growth and negligible cytotoxicity on Vero cells, 50% effective concentration ($EC_{50}C$/) of 104$ug\textrm\/ml$ and 50% cytotoxic concentration ($CC_{50}C$) of 3,793$ug\textrm\/ml$, respectively. Selectivity index (Sl $CC_{50}C$/$EC_{50}C$) of EA on Vero cell and VSV(IND) was about 36.5. EA did not display either a direct virucidal effect on V5V(IND) or induction of antiviral substance by Vero cells upon its treatment. Thus, the mode of antiviral activity of EA was studied at steps of viral adsorption onto cell. When both EA and virus were added to cell monolayers, titer of cell-free virus in culture supernatant increased in ca. 30-40% compared with that of control group and titer of cell-associated virus was 60-100% higher than that of control group. These results suggested that antiviral activity of EA on VSV(IND) might be due to the hindrance of viral entry to cells at eITher endocytosis or loss of envelope.
