Scientists at Harvard Medical School and Boston University Chobanian & Avedisian School of Medicine have mapped a critical component of the Nipah virus, a highly lethal bat-borne pathogen that has ...

Researchers at the University of São Paulo (USP) in Brazil have discovered that high-frequency ultrasound waves similar to ...

A groundbreaking study reveals that human cells initiate self-destruction processes when viruses disrupt RNA production, offering new insights into innate antiviral defenses. Conducted and reported on ...

Viral infection induces cytoskeleton remodeling into cage-like structure. Virus infection can cause severe rearrangement of the cytoskeleton, and all three kinds of cytoskeleton form a cage-like ...

More than 200,000 children succumb to viral gastroenteritis infections, or stomach flu, all over the world every year. 1 Human astroviruses are a common cause of such infections, leading to diarrhea, ...

A researcher is developing a patent-pending platform technology called LENN that mimics the dual-layer structure of viruses to deliver nucleic acid (NA)-based therapies to targeted cancer cells. A ...

Nipah virus is a zoonotic virus harbored by fruit bats. It can be transmitted to pigs and humans, infect people through contaminated food, and can travel directly from person to person via droplets.

Herpes simplex virus partially liquifies the tightly packed, gel-like interior of human cell nuclei to copy itself faster, a new study shows. The research centers on how the nucleus of each human cell ...
