Using a new cell model, researchers can for the first time study how hepatitis E viruses affect nerve cells. Hepatitis E viruses (HEV) typically cause liver infections. They can, however, also infect ...

Hepatitis E viruses (HEV) typically cause liver infections. They can, however, also infect other organs and cause neurological disorders. Little is yet known about how this process works. A research ...

In a recent study published in the journal Cell, researchers developed a deep learning model, "LucaProt," a transformer-based AI model to detect highly divergent ribonucleic acid (RNA)-dependent RNA ...

Researchers at the University of Iowa (UI) Health Care and colleagues at the Texas Biomedical Research Institute, and Boston University, used human skin explants to track the cellular route that the ...

To better understand BKPyV replication and ways to prevent it, researchers in the UAB Department of Microbiology have published a single-cell analysis of BKPyV infection in primary kidney cells. Their ...

BK polyomavirus, or BKPyV, is a major cause of kidney transplant failure. There are no effective drugs to treat BKPyV. Research reveals new aspects of BKPyV replication, offering possible drug targets ...

Researchers at UC San Diego have found that several of the most dangerous zoonotic viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, Ebola, and ...

As the industry moves toward continuous bioprocessing, more effective ways are being developed to validate viral clearance. Researchers at Asahi Kasei Bioprocess America have developed a small-scale ...

Some tiny viruses, called deltaviruses, can only spread by relying on other viruses. A study published in Cell shows that ...

When a virus enters the lungs, the immune system has to react fast. The lung maintains its own community of immune cells ...
