all aspects of viral attack strategies, including how viruses invade host cell protein-making machinery. Their work, supported by grants from the National Institute of General Medicine and the W. M.
Little is yet known about how this process works. A research team has now developed a cell model to study the interaction of the virus with nerve cells. Using this model, the researchers proved ...
Cells vs viruses. There are cells defending their castles and viruses trying to break through. If a sneaky virus manages to attack a cell, the cell fights it and notifies all the other castles ...
When the COVID-19 virus attacks, it turns the patient's own cells into virus factories ... scientists often don't know exactly how medications work. "In a lot of cases, we don't know all their ...

One team now reports that adding a little heat to cancer cells in a lab dish enables a virus-based drug to kill cancer cells that at body temperature were unaffected by the drug. The drug ...
In this work, T-cell-tropic chemokines were induced ... that some solid tumors use to avoid an immune system attack. Second, the virus can invade the core of the cancer cells—a near-impossible ...
The SARS-CoV-2 virus — which causes COVID — is made up of RNA (ribonucleic acid), a molecule that is found in all living cells. In the study, RNA was found to "trigger the development of a ...
