Abstract: The present invention provides several networks of cellular protein kinases as potential targets for medical intervention against hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and HCV-related diseases and disorders in mammals, including humans. The invention relates to therapeutic protocols and pharmaceutical compositions designed to inhibit the activity of one or more of these protein kinases for the prevention and/or treatment of infections and diseases caused by HCV. The invention also relates to methods for the identification of kinase inhibitors that may be used to treat and/or prevent HCV infections and HCV-related diseases.
