TLDR
Three compounds 10a, 12a, and 12c were identified to have significantly improved potency and a high selectivity index compared with dibucaine against five different strains of EV-D68 viruses, suggesting they might be further developed for the treatment of both respiratory infection as well as neuronal infection.
Abstract
Enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) is an atypical nonpolio enterovirus that mainly infects the respiratory system of humans, leading to moderate-to-severe respiratory diseases. In rare cases, EV-D68 can spre...
