Article Synopsis
  • SARS-CoV-2 is recognized as one of the most significant pandemics in recent history, prompting a search for effective non-biological antiviral treatments.
  • Researchers are focusing on repurposing existing drugs and have identified key host factors, such as the molecular chaperone GRP78, that facilitate the virus's entry into cells.
  • TL1228, a small molecule found through in silico screening, inhibits the interaction between SARS-CoV-2 and GRP78, significantly reducing viral activity and influencing immune response and inflammation markers in lab studies.
