A new way to neutralize coronavirus and other membrane-surrounded viruses has been discovered by researchers from the Swedish ...

TargImmune’s TAIMs comprise double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) packaged into nanoparticles that, when delivered to cancer cells, activate antiviral ... TAR001’s mechanism of action, including the ...

Many pathogenic viruses require a specific structure to be infectious, and their proteins form that structure in vivo with remarkable fidelity. The dynamical process by which protein conformations are ...

The MBN nanoparticles are chemically and metabolically stable and have antiviral, antibacterial ... provides insights into fundamental assembly mechanisms and will allow us to create a library ...

Recent research has focused on understanding the mechanisms behind fluorescence quenching, particularly how different substances, such as nanoparticles and organic dyes, interact to affect ...

With the main focus on the delivery mechanism ... a hallmark of viral infection. Other protein receptors bind to lipids, ...

A new experimental vaccine developed by researchers at MIT and Caltech could offer protection against emerging variants of SARS-CoV-2, as well as related coronaviruses, known as sarbecoviruses, that ...

"Treatment with virus-specific siRNA reduces viral load by 99.9 per cent. These stealth nanoparticles can be delivered to a wide range of lung cells and silence viral genes," said co-lead ...

Certain mineral nanoparticles were found to damage the membrane of the virus, making it less able to enter human cells. The mode of action that is demonstrated has not been discussed in previous ...
