Viruses are sneaky intruders, hijacking the internal machinery of host cells and replicating out of sight. Understanding these dynamics is the first step to developing effective antiviral strategies ...
Newcastle disease virus, an avian paramyxovirus that infects more than 250 animal species ranging from poultry to mammals, builds conspicuous cytoplasmic inclusion bodies during infection. These ...
Cells have evolved ingenious ways to defend themselves from viral attack. Research from The Wertheim UF Scripps Institute sheds light on one of their sneakier strategies. If there's a prowler trying ...
A new review maps how RNA- and DNA-sensing innate immune pathways determine whether cardiotropic viral infection resolves or ...
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 ...
Researchers at Umeå University have identified two human cell proteins, NUP98 and NUP153, that play a crucial role in how viruses such as tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV), West Nile virus, and ...
A study headed by researchers at NYU Langone Health has found that herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) partially liquifies the tightly packed, gel-like interior of human cell nuclei to help copy itself ...
The rate of HIV infection continues to climb globally. Around 40 million people live with HIV-1, the most common HIV strain. While symptoms can now be better managed with lifelong treatment, there is ...
For decades, the arrival of the monsoon season across India and tropical nations has brought an overwhelming wave of dengue ...
Most people will become infected with Epstein-Barr virus, or EBV, at some point in their lives. In addition to being a common ...
