Advances in research on HBV inhibitors based on new targets (2): RNase H and others / 药学学报

ABSTRACT

Hepatitis B has become one of the major diseases which seriously affect people's health and social development. Hepatitis B, with high incidence and long disease course, cannot be cured by approved drugs such as the nucleoside analogues. Therefore, the discovery of safe and efficient novel HBV inhibitors is of great significance. From the point of view of medicinal chemistry, we summarized and discussed current endeavours towards the discovery and development of anti-HBV agents of RNase H and other novel target inhibitors with various scaffolds or distinct mechanisms of action, besides the existing capsid protein inhibitors.
