Abstract: Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a contagious viral infection which is caused by foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV). The disease appears in cloven-footed animals. Symptoms of the disease are abrupt manifestation of sores on the mouth, nose, feet, etc. Nowadays the control and treatment of FMDV are becoming a worldwide economic problem and challenge for the society. Currently, there is no particular treatment available for FMDV, as well as the limitations and disadvantages in the use of vaccines divert the focu… Show more

Moringa oleifera Lam. tree is considered a miracle tree due to its nutrientrich profile. This plant has been widely cultivated throughout the world for its medicinal and nutritional benefits. Moringa plant contains a significant amount of various phytochemicals such as alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, tannins, and phenolics that are responsible for their various medicinal, nutritional, and other applications. The use of moringa in pharmacological drugs not only increases cultivation but also increases the over-exploitation of this tree. As the conventional methods of moringa reproduction are not much effective, we require additional alternative strategies to multiply moringa plants. Micro-propagation is considered an effective method to produce a large number of transplants within a short time period. This chapter explores the micro-propagation approaches of M. oleifera together with its nutritional profile and biological activities.

Viral infections remain a challenge in human and veterinary medicine due to factors such as viral mutations, new viruses, toxic effects, disease severity, intracellular viability, high costs, and limited availability of antiviral drugs. Despite advancements in immunization and antiviral drugs, there is a need for new and more effective antiviral compounds. Plants produce secondary metabolites that have shown antiviral activity, such as alkaloids, flavonoids, and essential oils. Advanced analytical techniques like HPLC, GC-MS, and NMR spectroscopy are used to identify and characterize these bioactive compounds. Flavonoids, terpenoids, lignans, sulphides, polyphenolics, coumarins, and saponins are among the groups of bioactive compounds found in plants that have demonstrated antiviral activity against viruses like HIV, influenza, herpes simplex, and hepatitis. Screening plant extracts and isolating active compounds allow scientists to identify potential new antiviral drugs. In vitro and in vivo studies have shown significant antiviral activity of plant extracts and their bioactive compounds. However, further research is needed to ensure safety, investigate drug interactions, and explore combination therapies with other natural products. The use of advanced analytical techniques helps identify and characterize bioactive compounds that target different stages of the viral life cycle. Examples of plant extracts and compounds with antiviral activity against specific viruses are mentioned, including SARS-CoV-2 and various veterinary viruses. The abstract emphasizes the ongoing research on natural sources, particularly plants, for the discovery of new and effective antiviral compounds, while highlighting the need for extensive studies on safety, drug interactions, and combination therapies.
