Apr. 26, 2021 — A professor has introduced a new concept for rapidly analyzing for the presence of a virus from colds to coronaviruses. However, although the concept can identify that someone has a type of ...
Apr. 23, 2021 — Most infectious bacteria and viruses bind to sugars on the surface of our cells. Now researchers have created a library of tens of thousands of natural cells containing all the sugars found on the ...
Apr. 21, 2021 — Researchers demonstrated that SARS-CoV-2 infection induces polyfunctional antibodies. Beyond neutralization, these antibodies can activate NK cells or the complement system, leading to the ...
Apr. 21, 2021 — Researchers have found a specific mechanism that enables SARS viruses to replicate efficiently in infected ...
Apr. 20, 2021 — The observation that most of the viruses that cause human diseases come from other animals has led some researchers to attempt 'zoonotic risk prediction' to second-guess the next virus to ...
Apr. 20, 2021 — Using data from the Human Cell Atlas, researchers have identified the differences in immune cells' response in those who had no symptoms compared to severe ...
Apr. 20, 2021 — Researchers compared the R (basic reproduction number) of the original SARS-CoV-2 virus with the R of the British variant, and found that the British variant is almost 1.5 times more ...
Apr. 19, 2021 — Taking multivitamins, omega-3, probiotics or vitamin D supplements may lessen the risk of testing positive for SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-19 infection -- at least among women, ...
Apr. 19, 2021 — Immune responses in SARS-CoV-2 patients might provide only incomplete protection against SARS-CoV-2 variants from ...
Apr. 19, 2021 — A new study uses computer modeling to suggest that eviction bans authorized during the COVID-19 pandemic reduced the infection rate and not only protected those who would have lost their housing but ...
Apr. 16, 2021 — The dominant G-form spike protein 'puts its head up' more frequently to latch on to receptors, but that makes it more vulnerable to ...
Apr. 16, 2021 — Scientists have identified a set of human genes that fight SARS-CoV-2 infection, the virus that causes COVID-19. Knowing which genes help control viral infection can greatly assist researchers' ...
Apr. 16, 2021 — Results of a new study suggest vaccination against COVID-19 remains crucial even in young adults who were previously ...
Apr. 16, 2021 — The experimental antiviral drug MK-4482 significantly decreased levels of virus and disease damage in the lungs of hamsters treated for SARS-CoV-2 infection, according to a new study. MK-4482, ...
Apr. 16, 2021 — SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, does not infect brain cells but can inflict significant neurological damage, according to a new study of dozens of deceased ...
Apr. 16, 2021 — A candidate vaccine that could provide protection against the COVID-19 virus and other coronaviruses has shown promising results in early animal ...
Apr. 16, 2021 — Scientists have modeled the spikes of the coronavirus particle to unravel how their shape and number may influence the transmissibility of the ...
Apr. 16, 2021 — Some survivors of ebolavirus outbreaks make antibodies that can broadly neutralize these viruses -- and now, scientists have illuminated how these antibodies can disable the viruses so effectively. ...
Apr. 15, 2021 — Those recovered from COVID-19 had a robust antibody response after the first mRNA vaccine dose, but little immune benefit after the second dose, according to new research. The findings suggest only a ...
Apr. 15, 2021 — Researchers have published an in-depth look at the SARS-CoV-2 mutations that have taken place during the past year. The review discusses the findings of over 180 research articles and follows the ...
