Computer-designed proteins protect lab-grown human cells from SARS-CoV-2

Computer-designed small proteins have now been shown to protect lab-grown human cells from SARS-CoV-2, the coronavirus that causes COVID-19.

Researchers determine how prokaryotic and single-celled origins contribute to human evolution

Immune responses are produced by a complex, hierarchical organization of the immune system, tissues, organs, and components.

Researchers develop antibacterial agent to treat drug-resistant infections

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is the most lethal drug-resistant bacteria and is also one of the most common bacterial pathogens.

New study shows how tumor cells evade the immune system

If cancer is a series of puzzles, a new study pieces together how several of those puzzles connect to form a bigger picture.

Combined point-of-care nucleic acid and antibody test can speed up COVID-19 detection

A Cambridge hospital has piloted the use of combined rapid point-of-care nucleic acid and antibody testing for SARS-CoV-2 infection after researchers at the University of Cambridge showed that this approach was superior to virus detection alone for diagnosing COVID-19 disease.

Study shows neutralizing antibodies can protect against SARS-CoV-2 virus

In May, a fishing vessel exited a port and returned with the first-ever proof that neutralizing antibodies offer protection from being re-infected by SARS-CoV-2.

New cellular pathway can protect cells from infection by Ebola virus, coronavirus

Discoveries from the Benaroya Research Institute at Virginia Mason (BRI) have identified a new cellular protection pathway that targets a common vulnerability in several different pandemic viruses, and collaborators at Case Western Reserve University, Boston University School of Medicine and MRIGlobal have shown that this pathway can protect cells from infection by Ebola virus and coronaviruses, like SARS-CoV-2.

Scientists identify antigen valencies that work best in vaccine designs for HIV, SARS-CoV-2

Designing a vaccine starts with finding the right ingredients. Every infectious agent has molecules, called antigens, that the immune system could potentially recognize and attack. So scientists must carefully consider which antigens should go into a vaccine.

Macrophage programming allows the body to fight infections and promotes tissue repair

Macrophages are white blood cells that, depending on the signals they get from the immune system, become specialized in either increasing or decreasing inflammation.

26 Aug 2020

Researchers identify mechanisms that impair the immune system in response to viral infections

Scientists have discovered mechanisms that cause functional deterioration of the immune system in reaction to viral infections, including COVID-19 or HIV.
