摘要:
The present invention is related to the field of the pharmaceutical industry, and describes a conserved area on the surface of the E protein that can be used for the development of wide-spectrum antiviral molecules to be employed in the prophylaxis and/or treatment of infections due to Dengue Virus serotypes 1-4 and other flaviviruses. The invention also covers chimeric proteins to be used as vaccines or as a prophylactic or therapeutic treatment against the four serotypes of Dengue Virus and other flaviviruses.
摘要:
The present invention is relative to chimerical peptides, whose primary structure holds at least one segment which inhibits the activation of the NS3 protease of a virus from the Flaviviridae family, they also contain a cell penetrating segment and they are capable of inhibiting or attenuate the viral infection. This invention is also relative to pharmaceutical compounds which contain these chimerical peptides for the prevention and/or treatment of the infection caused by a virus of the Flaviviridae family.
摘要:
The present invention is related to a method for blocking the infection of cells by dengue virus, based on interfering the direct interaction of the viral envelope protein with a cellular receptor or its indirect interaction with said cellular receptor through a carrier protein, as well as related uses; wherein said cellular receptor is the alpha-2 macroglobulin receptor, also known as the low density receptor-related protein or as CD91, and said carrier protein is human alpha-2 macroglobulin.
