Coronaviruses have found another door into human cells, and it is one that scientists were not watching. A bat virus isolated ...

Gene editing has emerged as a powerful approach for targeting the genetic causes of disease, but getting the editing ...

Researchers at LMU have developed a human cell model that replicates key mechanisms of neurodegenerative diseases—with ...

The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), which is the cause of AIDS, is a master of deception, using just nine genes to hijack ...

Researchers screened a phylogenetically diverse panel of alphacoronavirus spike proteins and found that a heart-nosed bat ...

The identification of a receptor that is recognized by a subset of alphacoronaviruses provides insights into ‘spillover’ risk ...

Researchers at Hannover Medical School (MHH) have developed a method for the efficient production of human immune cells, such ...

An international team of researchers has identified an East African bat coronavirus capable of entering human cells. While the virus—Cardioderma cor coronavirus (CcCoV) KY43, or CcCoV-KY43—can bind to ...

Researchers recently developed a bone marrow model to study how the body generates cells. Interestingly, this model is the first of its kind to be developed entirely from human cells. Not only can ...

A human female is born with all the egg cells she will ever have. The possibility for the development of new oocytes is zero. Given this constraint, it is crucial that these gametes remain healthy and ...

The influenza D virus that researchers say has been flying under the radar since its detection in animals in 2011 can vigorously make copies of itself in human cells and lung tissue samples, a new ...
