UT Southwestern researchers develop new strategy for broad spectrum anti-viral drugs
Bavituximab, an anti-viral drug developed by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers, shows promise as a new strategy to fight viral diseases, including potential bioterrorism agents. view more (2008-11-24)
Viral hitchhiker inhibits Wolbachia bacteria's ability to proliferate
Scientists studying the widespread symbiotic bacteria Wolbachia have long been interested in its ability to proliferate. view more (2006-05-19)
Mobilizing white blood cells to the lung: New discovery could lead to an improved influenza vaccine
Findings just published in the scientific journal Immunity by researchers at the Trudeau Institute shed new light on how a previously-unknown messaging mechanism within the human immune system prompts specific influenza-fighting cells to the lung airways during an infection. view more (2008-07-11)
Avian influenza survivors' antibodies effective at neutralising H5N1 strain
Adults who have recovered from the potentially deadly H5N1 strain of avian influenza may hold the key to future treatments for the virus, according to an international team of researchers. view more (2007-05-29)
Genetic mutation linked to West Nile virus infection
A genetic mutation that protects against HIV increases the risk of developing clinical West Nile Virus infection. view more (2006-01-09)
Common cold virus came from birds
A virus that causes cold-like symptoms in humans originated in birds and may have crossed the species barrier around 200 years ago, according to an article published in the December issue of the Journal of General Virology. Scientists hope their findings will help us understand how potentially deadly viruses emerge in humans. view more (2008-11-20)
Bird flu leaves the nest -- adapting to a new host
Current research suggests that viral polymerase may provide a new therapeutic target for host-adapted avian influenza. view more (2009-08-27)
Study shows long-term health effects from West Nile illnesses
More than a year after being diagnosed with a West Nile virus infection, half of the patients have ongoing health complaints including fatigue, memory problems, headaches, depression, and tremors. view more (2006-08-17)
MicroRNAs make for safer cancer treatments
Viruses -- long regarded solely as disease agents -- now are being used in therapies for cancer. Concerns over the safety of these so-called oncolytic viruses stem from their potential to damage healthy tissues. view more (2008-10-27)
Tulane researcher reports on origin of deadly fever outbreak
Bats or other cave dwelling animals may have been responsible for the deadly 1998-2000 outbreak of Marburg hemorrhagic fever among gold miners in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. view more (2006-09-14)
UT Houston dermatologists link family history to shingles susceptibility
Researchers at The University of Texas Medical School at Houston have identified family history as one reason why some people might be more susceptible to shingles, a severe skin condition. Their findings are published in the May 19 issue of Archives of Dermatology. view more (2008-05-20)
Avian Flu Research Sheds Light on Swine Flu Outbreak
A recent study by University of Maryland researchers examines the mechanisms underlying transmission of combined avian-human viruses and illustrates how virus outbreaks like that of the current swine flu come about. view more (2009-04-30)
The host makes all the difference
"Where there are many scientific works dealing solely with the flu virus, we have investigated how the host reacts to an infection," says Klaus Schughart, head of the Experimental Mouse Genetics research group. view more (2009-03-27)
Current hepatitis C treatments work equally well, UT Southwestern and national researchers report
The three treatment combinations for clearing the most common form of the hepatitis C virus work equally well with similar side effects, UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers and their colleagues in 13 other institutions have found. view more (2009-08-07)
Cancer-fighting virus shows promise in early clinical trial
A virus that has been specifically designed by scientists to be safe to normal tissue but deadly to cancer is showing early promise in a preliminary study, researchers said today at the ESMO Conference Lugano (ECLU), Switzerland. view more (2007-07-09)
Research details how a virus hijacks cell signals to cause infection
A common virus that causes meningitis and heart inflammation takes a "back door" approach to evade natural barriers, then exploits biological signals to infect human cells. view more (2006-01-13)
Scientists uncover secrets of potential bioterror virus
Researchers at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston have discovered a key tactic that the Rift Valley fever virus uses to disarm the defenses of infected cells. view more (2009-02-17)
1918 flu antibodies resurrected from elderly survivors
Ninety years after the sweeping destruction of the 1918 flu pandemic, researchers at Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt have recovered antibodies to the virus - from elderly survivors of the original outbreak. view more (2008-08-18)
Scientists discover how smallpox may derail human immune system
University of Florida researchers have learned more about how smallpox conducts its deadly business - discoveries that may reveal as much about the human immune system as they do about one of the world's most feared pathogens. view more (2009-05-12)
