Harnessing Natural Resources for Advancements in Dengue Virus Treatment
: Dengue fever, caused by the Dengue virus (DENV) and transmitted by Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, has become endemic in over 100 countries. Despite considerable research, there is a lack of specific drugs for clinical use against dengue. Hence, further exploration to identify anti-- dengue compounds is essential. In recent years, natural products have gained attention for their antiviral properties. Plant-based medicines are particularly appealing due to their safety and low toxicity. This review summarizes natural compounds with potential antiviral activity against DENV, highlighting their mechanisms of action. Various compounds, from traditional herbal remedies to novel plant isolates, show promise against dengue, targeting crucial viral proteins like the envelope protein, proteases, and RNA polymerase. Exploring natural sources of antiviral agents against dengue is crucial. These compounds offer hope for effective treatments and mitigating dengue's global impact.
期刊介绍:
Current Topics in Medicinal Chemistry is a forum for the review of areas of keen and topical interest to medicinal chemists and others in the allied disciplines. Each issue is solely devoted to a specific topic, containing six to nine reviews, which provide the reader a comprehensive survey of that area. A Guest Editor who is an expert in the topic under review, will assemble each issue. The scope of Current Topics in Medicinal Chemistry will cover all areas of medicinal chemistry, including current developments in rational drug design, synthetic chemistry, bioorganic chemistry, high-throughput screening, combinatorial chemistry, compound diversity measurements, drug absorption, drug distribution, metabolism, new and emerging drug targets, natural products, pharmacogenomics, and structure-activity relationships. Medicinal chemistry is a rapidly maturing discipline. The study of how structure and function are related is absolutely essential to understanding the molecular basis of life. Current Topics in Medicinal Chemistry aims to contribute to the growth of scientific knowledge and insight, and facilitate the discovery and development of new therapeutic agents to treat debilitating human disorders. The journal is essential for every medicinal chemist who wishes to be kept informed and up-to-date with the latest and most important advances.
