COVID-19 therapeutics based on the structure of SARS-CoV-2
Keywords:
coronavirus, COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2, S protein S, vaccines, therapeuticsAbstract
Introduction: Knowledge of the structure and the molecular biology of SARS-CoV-2, is important for the design and application of medications against COVID-19.
Objective: To describe the therapeutics of COVID-19, based on the structure of SARS-CoV-2
Methods: An integrated, non-systematic revision, with the descriptors from DeCS Google Scholar, The Lancet, PubMed Central and SciELO, was performed using articles in Spanish and English, published in 2020 and 2021.
Conclusions: Among the medications for COVID-19, based on the structure of SARS-CoV-2, there are monoclonal antibodies, inhibitors of the fusion of protease, the viral replication and vaccines. The main used antibodies are: bamlanivimab, etesevimab, casirivimab, imdevimab and meplazumab; among the inhibitors: remdesivir, favipiravir, lopinavir, umifenovir, camastat and péptids (EK1, EK1C4 y HD5). The vaccine platforms use protein sub-units, which are particles similar to a virus, viral vectors, nucleic acids and inactive or attenuated virus
