The persistence of H5N1 avian influenza viruses in many Asian countries and their ability to cause fatal infections in humans have raised serious concerns about a global flu pandemic1. Here we report the isolation of an H5N1 virus from a Vietnamese girl that is resistant to the drug oseltamivir2, which is an inhibitor of the viral enzyme neuraminidase and is currently used for protection against and treatment of influenza. Further investigation is necessary to determine the prevalence of oseltamivir-resistant H5N1 viruses among patients treated with this drug. 由于许多亚洲国家持续出现H5N1禽流感病毒,且在人类,其具有致死性感染的能力,人们开始关注流感病毒的全球流行。在这里,我们成功从一位越南女性中分离出一株抗奥司他韦的H5N1禽流感病毒。奥司他韦是一种病毒神经氨酸酶类抑制剂,目前其被用于治疗和预防流感。进一步研究需要调查接受奥司他韦治疗患者中,抗奥司他韦H5N1病毒的流行率。 [标签:content1][标签:content2]
