## Abstract Influenza virus hemagglutinin and neuraminidase, surface glycoproteins with an essential role in viral pathogenesis, are important antigen determinants and essential markers for epidemiological surveillance. Neuraminidase is also a suitable target for designing antiviral drugs. The intr
Eleven children with acute encephalopathy associated with an influenza virus infection were treated during the 1997-1998 influenza season. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay was used to detect the viral genome in peripheral blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples. The
Structure-based design and synthesis of potent influenza virus neuraminidase inhibitors are now being evaluated in human trials as anti-influenza virus drugs. The first drug of this class, Relenzaβ’ (Zanamivir/GG167), is now awaiting pharmaceutical evaluation and registration in Australia, Europe, an
