Abstract
⺠Rhinovirus is responsible for majority of common colds. ⺠There are no FDA approved drugs are available to treat rhinovirus infection. ⺠We show that quercetin, a plant flavonoid blocks viral replication in vitro. ⺠In addition quercetin inhibits virus-stimulated cytokine expression. ⺠Quercetin also inhibits viral replication and decreasing lung inflammation in vivo.
