Sinopsis :
The book *Indonesian Medicinal Plants as Potential Anti-Dengue Therapeutics* explores the urgent global challenge posed by dengue, a neglected tropical disease transmitted by *Aedes aegypti* mosquitoes. It emphasizes that nearly half of the world’s population is at risk, yet no specific antiviral therapy has been approved to date. In response, the work highlights Indonesian medicinal plants as promising sources of safe and effective anti-dengue agents. The text reviews bioactive phytochemicals with reported antiviral activity and explains their mechanisms, such as interfering with viral entry, replication, assembly, and release. It also outlines the dengue virus life cycle and host-virus interactions to provide a framework for identifying therapeutic targets. By combining scientific evidence with traditional knowledge, the book underscores the potential of plant-derived treatments in advancing pharmaceutical development. Ultimately, it seeks to promote recognition of Indonesia’s rich biodiversity as a valuable resource in the fight against dengue.
