ABSTRACT
Dengue fever is one of the most important vector-borne human diseases caused by mosquito vectorAedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus. Dengue virus can cause dengue fever, dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome. There are no approved drugs for the treatment of dengue disease so far. According to the mechanism of anti-dengue virus(anti-DENV) action, drugs under development for dengue disease can be divided into two categories: viral replication inhibitors and anti-cell factor pathway inhibitors. The former is further divided into DENV entry inhibitors, capsid protein inhibitors, NS3 protein inhibitors, NS5 protein inhibitors, and NS4B protein inhibitors; the latter is further divided into cell receptor inhibitors, lipid synthesis and metabolism inhibitors, and glucosidase inhibitors. The R&D of anti-DENV drugs is facing enormous challenges. Development of effective drugs which can be used for the treatment of four serotypes of dengue has a broad application prospect, and it will bring new hopes for dengue fever prevention and therapy.
