In vitro and in vivo protection against the highly pathogenic H5N1 influenza virus by an antisense phosphorothioate oligonucleotide

Current vaccination strategies and antiviral drugs only provide limited protection against influenza virus infection. In this study, we investigated the use of a novel antisense oligonucleotide (named IV-AS), which is specific for the 5'-terminal conserved sequence found in all eight viral RNA...
