The Role of Natural Products in Antiviral Drug Discovery: Insights into Mechanisms and Therapeutic Potential
Abstract: Drug discovery has always relied heavily on natural sources, especially when it comes to creating antiviral medications. This review explores the therapeutic potential of various natural products, including plant extracts, marine compounds, and microbial metabolites, in the fight against viral infections. We examine the mechanisms of action by which these natural compounds exert their antiviral effects, including direct inhibition of viral replication, modulation of host immune responses, and interference with …
