Abstract:
Chikungunya fever (CHIKF) is an arthropod-borne infection disease caused by Chikungunya virus (CHIKV), which represents a serious health problem worldwide. There is no antiviral drugs treatment for CHIKV infections, neither is there an effective vaccine for prevention of the disease. Herein, we reviewed the recent reported and classical inhibitors of CHIKV, and summarized the medicinal chemistry strategies for discovering CHIKV inhibitors.
