Novel virus entry mechanism could lead to new drugs against poxviruses
Research published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences on 11 April describes how the Imperial College London team discovered the mechanism allowing Vaccinia virus to shed its outer lipid membrane and enter cells. The mechanism is unique in virology and paves the way for development of new antiviral drugs. view more (2006-04-12)
Immunotherapy demonstrates long-term success in treating lymphoma
Targeted immunotherapy has been an attractive new therapeutic area for a number of cancers because it has the potential to destroy tumor cells without damaging surrounding normal tissue. New study results demonstrate high success rates using specialized white blood cells to prevent or treat lymphoma associated with the Epstein-Barr virus... view more... (2009-11-02)

New Sighting of Soil-Borne Wheat Mosaic Virus (SBWMV)
Following investigation of a sample sent to NIAB and Central Science Laboratory (CSL), two new sites in Kent have been identified with soil-borne wheat mosaic virus (SBWMV). The virus was identified in the UK in Wiltshire for the first time in 1999 and this occurrence appears to have no connection with the Wiltshire site. The work is part of a... view more...
