Engineering protease-resistant peptides to inhibit human parainfluenza viral respiratory infection

2021-02-22

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The lower respiratory tract infections affecting children worldwide are in large part caused by the parainfluenza viruses (HPIVs), particularly HPIV3, along with human metapneumovirus and respiratory syncytial virus, enveloped negative-strand RNA viruses. There are no vaccines for these important human pathogens, and existing treatments have limited or no efficacy. Infection by HPIV is initiated...
