Scientists have finally recreated the initial steps of HIV infection in a test tube, offering an incredibly zoomed-in view of the virus in action. The […] If a person in the developing world severely fractures a limb, they face an impossible choice. An improperly healed fracture could mean a lifetime of […] Toronto scientists have mapped the genes allowing cancer cells to avoid getting killed by the immune system in a finding that paves the way for […] The newer generation of HIV drugs have turned the once-lethal infection into a chronic condition, and cardiovascular disease has emerged as the leading cause of […] Scientists have further decoded how mammalian brains perceive odors and distinguish one smell from thousands of others. In experiments in mice, NYU Grossman School of […] Giant viruses, which measure about 10 times the size of a typical cold virus, infiltrate cells and inject their DNA through a special portal known […] US scientists have hailed a potential breakthrough in the coronavirus fight after a trial showed patients responding to an antiviral drug, fueling global hopes for […] South Africa has one of the highest rates of tuberculosis (TB) infection globally. Almost 400 000 patients are treated for TB annually. It is also […] Why is it that some people love to exercise, and others hate it? Most people would assume it’s all due to genetics, but a new […] Researchers at the University of Alberta have discovered a new class of drugs with the potential to make cancer treatment safer and more effective by […] Published in Lancet Infectious Diseases today, a team of British researchers are calling for the development of new antibiotics to be brought into the public […] Otago scientists have made an important discovery in understanding the role a particular protein plays to impair memory in Alzheimer’s disease, which could lead to […] When it comes to repairing injured tissue, specialized cells in the body known as fibroblasts are called into action. Fibroblasts give rise to healing cells […] Scotland’s biting midge population carries previously unknown viruses, according to new research. The study—published in Viruses and carried out by scientists at the MRC-University of […] Sushi lovers may face a higher risk of catching superbugs as scientists warn number of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in fish has DOUBLED over five years Research […] Researchers of Sechenov University and University of Pittsburgh have described the most promising strategies in applying genetic engineering for studying and treating Parkinson’s disease. This […] The discovery of a new target for the blood-pressure medication propranolol may lead to the development of new and safer therapies for vascular diseases, according […]
