200 proteins which detect diseases of the liver
The biochemist Enrique Santamaría Martínez, a researcher in the area of Genetic Therapy and Hepatology at the CIMA of the University of Navarra, has identified more than 200 proteins which can be considered as indicators of the progression of steatohepatitis and liver hepatitis. view more (2005-12-14)
Fine-tuning lasers to destroy blood-borne diseases like AIDS
Physicists in Arizona State University have designed a revolutionary laser technique which can destroy viruses and bacteria such as AIDS without damaging human cells and may also help reduce the spread of hospital infections such as MRSA. view more (2007-11-01)
Harvard and U. Pittsburgh researchers explain carbon monoxide's anti-inflammatory effects
In a study appearing in the April 2007 issue of The FASEB Journal, scientists from Harvard University and the University of Pittsburgh have shown for the first time that the anti-inflammatory effects of carbon monoxide originate within cells' own molecular engines, mitochondria. view more (2007-03-30)
Do patients at risk for B-cell malignancy need antiviral treatment?

Chronic Infection Now Clearly Tied to Immune-System Protein
The reason deadly infections like human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis C never go away is because these viruses disarm the body's defense system. view more (2009-05-15)
A new light on the anti-tumor mechanisms of Scutellaria barbata
Medicinal plants have been used as traditional remedies for hundreds of years. Among them, S. barbata has been traditionally used in treatment of hepatitis, inflammation, osteomyelitis and gynecological diseases in China. view more (2009-01-05)
New method will 'shake up' the world of virus detection
A team of Cambridge scientists have invented a new method that could revolutionise the way scientists detect viruses. It works by 'vibrating' viruses and listening to the sound they make as they break away from a surface. The secret lies in tiny quartz crystals less than 1cm in diameter and 1mm thick. An antibody is used to bind the virus to the... view more... (2001-08-30)
OHSU turns mouse into factory for human liver cells

New protein vital for immune response is found
A newly discovered protein not only is vital to the immune system's ability to fight off viral infections but also has been found in an unexpected location within the cell, causing researchers to rethink previous notions about the workings of the human immune system. view more (2005-08-26)
Who found some new mechanisms of HBV virulence?
This dreadful HBV is small in size. The genome of this virus is a partial double stranded circle. When made fully double stranded, this genome carries about 3000 base pairs, compared to 200 kilo base pairs of the genome of the smallpox virus. view more (2008-02-25)
