Anti-Influenza Effect of Nanosilver in a Mouse Model

Anti-Influenza Effect of Nanosilver in a Mouse Model

The present study assesses copper metabolism of the host organism as a target of antiviral strategy, basing on the “virocell” concept. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were used as a specific active agent because they reduce the level of holo-ceruloplasmin, the main extracellular cuproenzyme. The mouse...
