Effect of siRNA targeting dengue virus genes on replication of dengue virus: an in vitro experimental study.

Dengue is a notorious viral infection, which affects a large segment of world populations in absence of vaccines and anti-viral treatment. The current study evaluates role of effective siRNA in dengue virus replication. Eight siRNA were synthesized against five different genes (Capsid, CprM, NS1, NS3 and NS5) of all serotypes of dengue virus.
