Viruses possess a formidable ability to enter our cells to multiply there, thus triggering diseases. However, a team from ...

Researchers at the Federal University of São Paulo (UNIFESP) in Brazil have discovered that SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes ...

We know that the process of viral uptake into cells begins with interactions between proteins hemagglutinin and neuraminidase on the virus’s surface and sialic acid on the cell membrane, which trigger ...

Scientists have captured an unprecedented, real-time view of influenza viruses as they move across and slip inside human ...

For the first time, a new high-resolution microscopy technique has allowed researchers to watch live as influenza viruses infect cells. The international team led by ETH Zurich found that the cells ...

Researchers discovered a hidden molecular “switch” that herpes viruses rely on to invade cells. By combining AI, simulations, ...

Scientists have captured a never-before-seen, high-resolution look at influenza’s stealthy invasion of human cells, revealing that the cells aren’t just helpless victims. Using a groundbreaking ...
