Leeds research points to new therapy for hepatitis C treatment
Combination therapies similar to those used for HIV patients may be the best way of treating hepatitis C virus (HCV), say researchers from the University of Leeds. view more (2008-12-09)
New hope for the red squirrel
A number of red squirrels are immune to squirrelpox viral disease, which many believed would lead to the extinction of the species, scientists have discovered. view more (2008-10-17)
Early promise for treatment of Ebola (p 1953)
Embargoed 0001 h (London time) 12 December 2003. Preliminary findings of an animal study in this week's issue of THE LANCET suggest that scientists have taken an important step towards a possible treatment strategy for the deadly Ebola virus. Haemorragic fever from the Ebola virus is fatal in up to 80%of cases in humans. The virus is thought to... view more... (2003-12-10)
Cancer virus protein needed for successful infection
New research shows that a protein made by a cancer-causing virus that was thought to be unimportant for its replication is in fact critically needed by the virus to initiate an infection and to reproduce. view more (2006-04-03)
UCLA scientists discover immune response to HIV differs, even in identical twins
In findings illustrating the difficulty of developing an AIDS vaccine, UCLA AIDS Institute researchers report the immune systems in two HIV-positive identical twins responded to the infection in different ways. view more (2005-12-07)
Why predicting the next influenza pandemic is difficult and how scientists can best prepare
In planning for a future influenza pandemic, most experts agree that two things are known for certain—there will be another pandemic someday, and nobody can predict when. view more (2007-05-09)
Avian influenza virus in mammals spreads beyond the site of infection to other organ systems
Researchers at Erasmus Medical Center have demonstrated systemic spread of avian influenza virus in cats infected by respiratory, digestive, and cat-to-cat contact. view more (2006-01-16)
Scientists glimpse a rare human antibody which protects against AIDS
Scientists have obtained their first detailed glimpse of a rare antibody, called b12, which is capable of inactivating many different strains of HIV, the virus which causes AIDS. A crystal structure of b12 has been determined by scientists working at The Scripps Research Institute, California, and the Glycobiology Institute at Oxford University,... view more... (2001-08-08)
Van Andel Institute Study Rules Out Transcriptional Coactivators as Useful Herpes Antiviral Drug Targets
Researchers at Van Andel Research Institute (VARI) have determined that the herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) does not require transcriptional coactivators for viral gene expression early in the infection process. The finding is significant in determining that, in contradiction to earlier models, chemical inhibitors of these cellular proteins... view more... (2009-03-26)
New rabies vaccine may require only a single shot... not 6
A person, usually a child, dies of rabies every 20 minutes. However, only one inoculation may be all it takes for rabies vaccination, according to new research published in the Journal of Infectious Diseases by researchers at the Jefferson Vaccine Center. view more (2009-09-21)
Combination vaccine protects monkeys from ebola and Marburg viruses
An experimental, combination vaccine against Ebola and Marburg viruses using virus-like particles (VLPs) provides complete protection against infection in monkeys. view more (2008-02-27)
Sick Beans lead to Nanotech
Farmers get little joy from the cowpea mosaic virus, which attacks legumes. Chemists and molecular biologists at the Scripps Institute in La Jolla are, on the other hand, completely taken with this virus. They are not setting the tiny things loose on plants, however, but have something completely different in mind: the viruses are to act as... view more... (2002-01-22)
How breastfeeding affects HIV transmission
Mother to child transmission of HIV accounts for a large proportion of HIV infections in children, with many infected as a result of breastfeeding, which requires transfer of the virus across mucosal barriers. view more (2005-10-21)
Waking up dormant HIV
HAART (highly active anti-retroviral therapy) has emerged as an extremely effective HIV treatment that keeps virus levels almost undetectable; however, HAART can never truly eradicate the virus as some HIV always remains dormant in cells. view more (2009-03-17)
Producing flu vaccines will be faster and cheaper, thanks to MSU technology
Technology from Michigan State animal science labs looks to produce new human flu vaccines quicker and cheaper than current methods. view more (2006-07-12)
Who will recover spontaneously from hepatitis C virus infection
More than 3% of world population is infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV). The outcome of HCV infections is either self recovery or chronic hepatitis, and many of the chronic infections will develop into liver cirrhosis or liver cancer. view more (2007-08-30)
Fruit fly gene study could yield new flu treatments
As they design new drugs to fight off influenza, scientists may not need to attack the virus directly. Instead, they may be able to stave off infection by targeting one of more than 100 proteins inside host cells on which the virus depends. view more (2008-07-10)
Protein that provides innate defense against HIV could lead to new treatments
By identifying a protein that restricts the release of HIV-1 virus from human cells, scientists believe they may be closer to identifying new approaches to treatment. The research is published in the advance online edition of Nature Medicine. view more (2008-05-27)
Minimising the spread of deadly Hendra virus
Groundbreaking CSIRO research into how the deadly Hendra virus spreads promises to save the lives of both horses and humans in the future. view more (2009-04-15)
Sperm may play leading role in spreading HIV
Sperm, and not just the fluid it bathes in, can transmit HIV to macrophages, T cells, and dendritic cells (DCs), report a team led by Ana Ceballos at the University of Buenos Aires in Argentina. view more (2009-10-26)
