<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Dengue virus (DENV) infection generates a significant health burden throughout the world, and there are no clinically approved antiviral drugs, as of now. The virus also depends on lipid metabolism in the host to conduct effective replication and this makes lipid-directed compounds promising as therapeutic options.
