Antiviral activity of ethanol extract of Geranii Herba and its components against influenza viruses via neuraminidase inhibition
Abstract Influenza viruses are a serious threat to human health, causing numerous deaths and pandemics worldwide. To date, neuraminidase (NA) inhibitors have primarily been used to treat influenza. However, there is a growing need for novel NA inhibitors owing to the emergence of resistant viruses....
