Suppression of CMV Infection with Letermovir in a Kidney Transplant Patient
Infection with cytomegalovirus (CMV) with resistance to ganciclovir (GCV) is a therapeutic challenge in kidney transplant patients, because standard treatment options are nephrotoxic. We report the case of a kidney transplant recipient with GCV-resistant

The development of effective antiviral drugs is an important biomedical scientific achievement of the late 20th century. Highly potent drugs are now available against herpes viruses, HIV, hepatitis B virus, and influenza virus. This list will extend to papillomaviruses, respiratory viruses, enteroviruses, and hepatitis C virus over the next 5-10 years.

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.

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 ...
