Aims The repurposed use of favipiravir in COVID‐19 has been reported to have limited clinical efficacy, yet it has been widely used in some countries. Favipiravir causes mutagenesis in RNA viruses, and it is currently unknown whether it may have a measurable effect on the virus in humans.

Molnupiravir for treating COVID-19
Five years from the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, morbidity and mortality have subsided. Vaccines have contributed to reducing the risk of infection and severe disease. However, new COVID-19 variants continue to emerge, and the role of oral antivirals such as molnupiravir in preventing progression of disease or hospitalisation must be assessed.To ...

ACE2‐ and HR2‐Mimetic Peptides Inhibit Replication of Two SARS‐CoV‐2 Variants
ABSTRACT Several therapeutic approaches to inhibiting severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) focus on blocking the virus's entry mechanism. This can be blocked in two ways: by interacting with the receptor‐binding domain (RBD) of the spike protein and human angiotensin‐converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), and by blocking viral‐cellular ...

Under physiological conditions, pathogenic stimuli activate TLR/IL1‐R signaling, triggering TOLLIP dissociation from IRAK1 and subsequent IRAK1 phosphorylation, TRAF6 ubiquitination, and NF‐κB activation. During SARS‐CoV‐2 infection, viral M protein binds TOLLIP and stabilizes the TOLLIP–IRAK1 complex, thereby suppressing NF‐κB signaling, impairing ...

Advancing Antiviral Design: Integrating Natural Products, Computation and Targeted Delivery
A stepwise translational framework linking natural‐product discovery, computational prioritisation, experimental validation, lead optimisation and targeted delivery is proposed to advance antiviral design. ABSTRACT The COVID‐19 pandemic highlighted the role of rapid viral mutation and global connectivity in accelerating viral emergence and spread ...

ABSTRACT COVID‐19 continues to be a threat to global health and a burden on healthcare systems. There is an ongoing need for COVID‐19 antiviral therapies that are safe and effective across broad patient populations. Ibuzatrelvir is a potent, selective inhibitor of the SARS‐CoV‐2 main protease and demonstrated favorable properties for clinical ...

Three series of pyrazole ribonucleoside analogues were designed and synthesized. They were evaluated, along with some of their pronucleotides, for their antiviral activity against RNA viruses. Pyrazole ribonucleoside analogues were prepared via a linear approach starting with the reaction of D‐ribosylhydrazine with 1,3‐dicarbonyl or acrylonitrile ...
