New study supports bradykinin storm theory of COVID-19's viral pathogenesis

A new paper published in Nature Communications adds further evidence to the bradykinin storm theory of COVID-19's viral pathogenesis -; a theory that was posited two years ago by a team of researchers at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory.

Researchers discover the atomic structure of the nuclear pore complex

Nearly 100 trillion cells make up the human body, which is what keeps people healthy and alive. The mechanisms of life are maintained by the billions of pieces that each cell has on its own.

Researchers investigate dynamics and modifications of COVID-19 virus spike protein

When the coronavirus that causes COVID-19 infects human cells, the cell’s protein-processing machinery modifies the spike protein, making it more flexible and mobile, potentially increasing its possibility to contaminate other cells and evade antibodies, according to new research from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
