Ribavirin Induces Polyamine Depletion via Nucleotide Depletion to Limit Virus Replication
Summary: Common antivirals include nucleoside or nucleotide analogs with base prodrugs. The antiviral ribavirin, a US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved nucleoside antimetabolite, halts guanine production, mutagenizes viral genomes, and ...

Ribavirin Monitoring in Chronic Hepatitis C Therapy: Anaemia versus Efficacy
The standard treatment of HCV infection with pegylated interferon-α2a or -α2b and ribavirin is effective in <50% of HCV genotype-1-infected patients. To improve this figure, it might be desirable to obtain optimal plasma concentrations of the drug by

ABSTRACT Background and Aim Metabolic syndrome significantly increases the risk of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection has been associated with an increased risk of metabolic syndrome. This study aims to explore this association to improve management strategies for HCV patients at risk of metabolic syndrome ...

Plasma Exchange for Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome: A Mechanistic Case for an Untested Intervention
ABSTRACT Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) carries a case fatality rate of 35%–40% and has no approved pharmacologic treatment. Its pathophysiology is rooted in the plasma compartment: cytokines, viral antigens, immune complexes, and platelet‐binding glycoproteins circulate as drivers of immunopathologic endothelial injury, noncardiogenic pulmonary ...
