This section is a part of the chapter: Strategies for Studying Antiviral Activity of Natural Products: From Screening to Mechanism Elucidation
The discovery and development of antiviral agents from natural products have garnered significant attention in recent years due to the rising prevalence of viral infections and the emergence of drug-resistant strains. Natural products derived from plants, animals, and microorganisms have long been recognized as valuable sources of bioactive compounds with diverse pharmacological properties. Among these, antiviral compounds have shown promising potential for combating a wide range of viral pathogens. Complex natural products, such as extracts or essential oils, contain diverse compounds that can affect different stages of the viral cycle, making them particularly interesting for drug-resistant viruses.
