A newly identified virus–cell hybrid structure allows viruses to spread faster and more aggressively by hitching a ride on ...
Infection with Zika virus in pregnancy can lead to neurological disorders, fetal abnormalities and fetal death. Until now, how the virus manages to cross the placenta, which nurtures the developing ...
Respiratory infections, pink eye, or an upset stomach may seem like unrelated, mild inconveniences, but all of these ailments share one root cause: adenovirus infection. Many of us will encounter some ...
Scientists have discovered that T cells -- white blood cells that can destroy harmful pathogens -- can completely prevent viral infection, to an extent previously thought only possible due to ...
In a person living with HIV, proviruses—strands of HIV DNA—are typically integrated into the T cell genome and become a permanent part of the cell's genetic makeup. This integration enables the ...
The herpesvirus can manipulate our DNA with far more precision than previously thought. The virus condenses and changes the shape of our genetic material to hijack the host genes needed for ...
A new study reveals the biological secret to the Zika virus's infectious success: Zika uses host cells' own 'self-care' system of clearing away useless molecules to suppress the host proteins that the ...
Infection with Zika virus in pregnancy can lead to neurological disorders, fetal abnormalities and fetal death. Until now, how the virus manages to cross the placenta, which nurtures the developing ...
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a germ that causes a lifelong infection that slowly weakens the immune system. Though the infection is lifelong, medicines can keep the virus in check and help ...
