Title: A new paradigm in viral resistance. Author: Ruiz A, Russell SJ. Journal: Cell Res; 2012 Nov; 22(11):1515-7. PubMed ID: 23033124. Abstract: The rapid mutation of RNA viruses allows for the acquisition of resistance to drugs directly targeting viral proteins. Therefore, a novel approach to the development of antivirals centers on targeting host factors critical to viral replication. A recent report has brought to light the potential for RNA viruses to also develop resistance against compounds targeting crucial host factors, suggesting that a combination of drugs with various targets may be necessary for preventing resistance.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
