Indole-based Novel Molecule as Preventive against COVID Variants
Recently, a team of researchers from India and Paris has developed a novel molecule that has shown promise in lab tests as a potential preventive against the variants of the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
Key Points
- The compounds are based on indole which are ubiquitous molecules found in some amino acids and natural alkaloids.
- The current molecules are designed to treat the acute and long-term symptoms of COVID-19.
- They are first in class molecules displaying the original property of targeting not only one but several molecular targets involved in COVID-19.
- Due to its multi-target properties, the compounds interfere with several stages of SARS-CoV-2 infection, including ....
