Different types of effective fractions from Radix Isatidis revealed a multiple-target synergy effect against respiratory syncytial virus through RIG-I and MDA5 signaling pathways, a pilot study to testify the theory of superposition of traditional Chinese Medicine efficacy

Conclusions: The three effective fractions of Radix Isatidis have remarkable synergistic anti-RSV effects in vitro and in vivo, and total alkaloids and lignans show multi-target synergistic effects via the RIG-I and MDA5 signaling pathways.Graphical abstract
