Abstract
⺠We compared the therapeutic effects of α-bromo-4-chlorocinnamaldehyde (BCC) with cinnamaldehyde on viral myocarditis (VMC). ⺠BCC inhibited coxsackie virus B3 replication and cardiac injury in vitro and in vivo. ⺠The effect of BCC on VMC might be through inhibition of inflammatory signaling. ⺠These results suggest that BCC had a promising therapeutic effect on VMC.
