    摘要: No antiviral regimen has been consistently successful in treating H5N1 virus infection. We demonstrate that a group of highly effective siRNAs targeting different H5N1 viral genes shares a unique motif, GGAGU/ACUCC. We further demonstrate that the effectiveness of siRNAs containing this motif is not sequence specific. The results suggested that the structure of the unique motif is critical in determining the potency of siRNA-mediated protective effects against viral infection and this potent in vivo protection is associated with early productions of β-defensin and IL-6 induced by the motif. Provided are methods and prophylactic and therapeutic agents useful against other viral infections in addition to the H5N1 influenza virus.

    摘要: Peptides having activity of inhibiting infections of respiratory viruses and use of the same are disclosed. The peptides can be synthesized by chemical or genetic engineering methods, and they have functional domain capable of binding to surface glycoprotein of respiratory viruses and activity of inhibiting infections of respiratory viruses. The peptides are useful for blocking infections of respiratory viruses in target cells, for prevention/treatment of said infections, and for development of new prophylactic/therapeutic medicaments against respiratory viruses. Also disclosed are a kit for screening peptide capable of inhibiting said infections and the screening method. The invention also discloses the mechanism of the peptides in inhibition of said infections, which provides theory support for developing new prophylactic/therapeutic agents with broad-spectrum antiviral activities.
