Researchers have found a way to deploy a molecular "warhead" that can annihilate the bacterium that causes Lyme disease.

Lamin A/C protects alveolar macrophages against nuclear envelope rupture and DNA damage, but it erodes during aging. Lack of lamin A/C leads to senescence and an aging signature, resulting in vulnerability to influenza virus and lung cancer growth.

Whether a high-dose influenza vaccine is associated with a benefit in reducing CP events.

Agriculture can produce pathogens from animals, but it can form barriers that help block their spread, an article argues.

After a drop in nesting success in 2022 due to highly pathogenic avian influenza, or bird flu, bald eagles appear to be back on the track to recovery.

Detection of WDIV in naturally infected wheat, barley, and sugarcane in the field and its ability to systemically infect wheat, oat, barley, corn, soybean, and tobacco under laboratory conditions, provides compelling evidence that WDIV is the first geminivirus identified with the capability of infec...

Wakefield’s fraud created a false link between the MMR vaccine and autism.His “study” in The Lancet was retracted and he was struck off the UK's medical register for committing unethical and fraudulent research on...

Moderna said that its experimental mRNA-based seasonal flu vaccine generated a stronger immune response than a currently marketed vaccine.

Researchers from Pritzker Molecular Engineering, under the guidance of Prof. Jeffrey Hubbell, demonstrated that their compound can eliminate the autoimmune response linked to multiple sclerosis.Researchers at the University of Chicago's Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering (PME) have developed...

Cell biologists describe a new organelle, the exclusome, that's present in mammalian cells and made of rings of DNA.

A vaccine designed to protect against three different deadly coronaviruses shows promise in mouse studies, researchers report.

The discovery of a particular subgroup of antibodies could lead to the development of a universal dengue vaccine, say researchers.

A newly discovered beetle gets its name from the beer Carlsberg, thanks to its distinctly shaped penis that resembles a bottle opener.

Dr. Peter Hotez joins The New Abnormal this week to discuss his new book, “The Deadly Rise of Anti-Science”—and why anti-vaccine conspiracies are so dangerous.

Plant-virus interaction is a complex phenomenon and involves the communication between plant and viral factors. Viruses have very limited coding ability yet, they are able to cause infection which results in huge agro-economic losses throughout the globe each year.

A study of a lizard species in Arizona revealed that nearly 70 years' worth of climate-related extinction occurred in just seven years.

Doctors describe a clearer, more consistent pattern of Covid symptoms than they saw in the past. The illness often starts with sore throat and congestion.

An ‘inverse vaccine’ has been developed that reverses the damage caused when the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s healthy organs and tissues. It could pave the way to a treatment for autoimmune diseases like MS, type 1 diabetes and arthritis.

The infected sea elephants were found in an outbreak area where dead sea lions were also found.

Vaccination against bird flu offers farmers hope, rather than being caught between the anguish of finding a sick bird and the desolation of having to slaughter their entire flock.

Brain organoids offer a look at the genetic and cellular underpinnings of autism, say researchers.
