Ribavirin enhances IFN-α signalling and MxA expression: a novel immune modulation mechanism during treatment of HCV. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
The nucleoside analogue Ribavirin significantly increases patient response to IFN-α treatment of HCV, by directly inhibiting viral replication. Recent studies indicate that Ribavirin also regulates immunity and we propose that Ribavirin enhances specific

Extinction of hepatitis C virus by ribavirin in hepatoma cells involves lethal mutagenesis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Lethal mutagenesis, or virus extinction produced by enhanced mutation rates, is under investigation as an antiviral strategy that aims at counteracting the adaptive capacity of viral quasispecies, and avoiding selection of antiviral-escape mutants.

Enhancement of Crystallization Process of the Organic Pharmaceutical Molecules through High Pressure

open access: yesCrystals, 2022
The enhancement of the crystallization process through high pressures was studied by using ribavirin (RVB) as a model compound. The effects of high pressure on crystallization thermodynamics, nucleation kinetics, and process yield were evaluated and ...

Evaluation of Ribavirin–Poloxamer Microparticles for Improved Intranasal Absorption

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2021
Ribavirin is a water-soluble antiviral compound which, owing to its inability to cross the blood–brain barrier, has limited effectiveness in treating viruses affecting the central nervous system.

Adverse Skin Reactions due to Ribavirin in Hepatitis C Combination Therapy with Pegylated Interferon-α2a

open access: yesCase Reports in Dermatology, 2013
The introduction of ribavirin to hepatitis C combination therapy with pegylated interferon (PEG-IFN)-α2a has improved sustained responses, but it has been accompanied by an increased incidence of cutaneous side effects. Most cases of drug eruption caused
