Molecular Network of Dengue Virus Fever and its Treatment

Meer over het boek

The book explores the critical role of dengue virus (DENV) transmitted by mosquitoes, responsible for nearly 100 million cases annually. It highlights the incomplete understanding of miRNA expression regulation in DENV-infected patients and suggests that certain human miRNAs may possess antiviral properties. The research indicates that blocking specific antiviral miRNAs with modified antisense oligoribonucleotides can hinder the host's ability to suppress viral replication, shedding light on potential therapeutic approaches against DENV.
