Influenza and antiviral resistance: an overview. [PDF]
Influenza affects approximately 1 billion individuals each year resulting in between 290,000 and 650,000 deaths. Young children and immunocompromised individuals are at a particularly high risk of severe illness attributable to influenza and these are also the groups of individuals in which reduced susceptibility to neuraminidase inhibitors is most ...

Cytomegalovirus in children undergoing haematopoietic stem cell transplantation: a diagnostic and therapeutic approach to antiviral resistance [PDF]
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a ubiquitous virus which causes a mild illness in healthy individuals. In immunocompromised individuals, such as children receiving haematopoietic stem cell transplantation, CMV can reactivate, causing serious disease and ...

Clinical Implications of Antiviral Resistance in Influenza
Influenza is a major cause of severe respiratory infections leading to excessive hospitalizations and deaths globally; annual epidemics, pandemics, and sporadic/endemic avian virus infections occur as a result of rapid, continuous evolution of influenza ...

Antiviral resistance of stem cells. [PDF]
Stem cells are important for growth and regeneration given their ability to self-renew and differentiate into mature cells. Resistance to certain viral infections has been established as a phenotype of stem cells, a protection in line with their important physiological function.

Artificial Small RNA-Based Silencing Tools for Antiviral Resistance in Plants [PDF]
Artificial small RNAs (art-sRNAs), such as artificial microRNAs (amiRNAs) and synthetic trans-acting small interfering RNAs (syn-tasiRNAs), are highly specific 21-nucleotide small RNAs designed to recognize and silence complementary target RNAs.

Strategies and efforts in circumventing the emergence of antiviral resistance against conventional antivirals [PDF]
Antiviral resistance stemming from rapid viral evolution and adaptation is a major challenge faced in treating viral infections. Here, we describe the mechanisms and factors underlying antiviral resistance and their implications to future drug ...

Antiviral drug resistance as an adaptive process [PDF]
Antiviral drug resistance is a matter of great clinical importance that, historically, has been investigated mostly from a virological perspective. Although the proximate mechanisms of resistance can be readily uncovered using these methods, larger evolutionary trends often remain elusive.

Influenza viruses – antiviral therapy and resistance
Influenza is a serious and frequently underestimated, but vaccine preventable disease. The adamantane derivates rimantadine and amantadine and the neuraminidase inhibitors zanamivir and oseltamivir are the only antiviral drugs currently approved in ...
