New research helps explain why bird flu has not caused a pandemic
The authors of the new study, from Imperial College London, the University of Reading and the University of North Carolina, USA, argue that it is very unlikely that two genetic mutations would occur a...

Read moreScientists put interactive flu tracking at public's fingertips
The researchers linked many powerful computer systems together to analyze enormous amounts of genetic data collected from all publicly available isolated strains of the H5N1 virus – the cause of avian...
Health and Medicine | Read moreScientists discover influenza's Achilles heel: Antioxidants
As the nation copes with a shortage of vaccines for H1N1 influenza, a team of Alabama researchers have raised hopes that they have found an Achilles' heel for all strains of the flu—antioxidants....
Life Sciences | Read moreHow to improve vaccines to trigger T cell as well as antibody response
Killed or disabled viruses have proven safe and effective for vaccinating billions worldwide against smallpox, polio, measles, influenza and many other diseases. But killed or severely "a...

Interactions between proteins are fundamental to many biological processes, including some less-than-desirable ones like infections and tumor growth. For example, HIV and several other human viruses &...
Life Sciences | Read moreCyber exploring the 'ecosystems' of influenzas
A single mutation can put a flu virus on a new-enough path to re-infect people who had developed immunity to its previous form, said Katia Koelle, a Duke assistant professor of biology.For exa...
Ecology, The Environment and Conservation | Read moreDiscovery to aid in future treatments of third-world parasites
These parasites are long lived (>10 years) and dwell within blood vessels, where they produce eggs that become the focus of intense, chronic inflammatory responses. In severe cases, this inflammation ...
Life Sciences | Read moreFighting drug-resistant flu viruses
Amid reports that swine flu viruses are developing the ability to shrug off existing antiviral drugs, scientists in Japan are reporting a first-of-its kind discovery that could foster a new genre of a...
Life Sciences | Read moreMIT and CDC discover why H1N1 flu spreads inefficiently
A team from MIT and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has found a genetic explanation for why the new H1N1 "swine flu" virus has spread from person to person less effectively th...
Health and Medicine | Read moreResearch Team Finds Key Target of Aging Regulator
Scientists have long known that a class of proteins called sirtuins promotes fitness and longevity in most organisms ranging from single-celled yeast to mammals. At the cellular level, sirtuins protec...
Life Sciences | Read moreIdentification of peptides and other organic substances to inhibit the virus-host cell-interaction
The new technology stands at an early stage of development (lab level). The inventors developed a method for identification of short coiled-coil sequences which are binding the viral envelope protein....
Technology Offerings | Read moreMethod for Studying Virus Particle Release
This invention provides methods and means for studying influenza virus particle release, especially the association of matrix protein M1 with the cellular membrane as well as the association of hemagg...
Technology Offerings | Read moreUSC researchers uncover mechanism that allows influenza virus to evade the body's immune response
The study will be published in the May 21 issue of the journal Cell Host & Microbe. "We have found a mechanism that the influenza virus uses to inhibit the body's immune response tha...
Life Sciences | Read morePrinceton team's analysis of flu virus could lead to better vaccines
Though theoretical, the work points to the critical importance of what has been a poorly appreciated aspect of the interaction between a virus and those naturally produced defensive proteins called an...
