Saikosaponin B2
Saikosaponin B2 is a bioactive small molecule that inhibits HCV infection across multiple genotypes by targeting the E2 glycoprotein and blocking viral attachment to hepatoma cells. It also promotes melanogenesis in B16 melanoma cells by inducing differentiation and enhancing tyrosinase expression, making it relevant for virology and cancer research.
