In a recent study published in the Journal of Experimental Medicine, researchers identified the cellular tropism and transcriptome consequences of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS ...

In a recent study published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers demonstrated that human transferrin receptor (TfR) mediates severe acute respiratory syndrome ...

Researchers have identified new host factors that interact with the receptor binding domain of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein to promote viral entry. This finding offers valuable mechanistic insights ...

Researchers at the Federal University of São Paulo (UNIFESP) in Brazil have discovered that SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, uses a sophisticated tactic to evade the human body's defense ...

A multi-institutional study led by researchers at the University of Alabama at Birmingham and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill has revealed a previously underappreciated mechanism by ...

Approximately 15 to 20 million Americans who have acquired COVID-19 experience persistent symptoms lasting over 3 months (long-COVID). Respiratory symptoms of long-COVID include breathlessness, ...

Researchers have discovered that SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, may be changing crucial white blood cells called neutrophils so that instead of working to destroy pathogens, they instead ...

After binding to its cell surface receptor angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) enters the host cell through directly fusing with plasma ...

Antibody responses to new SARS-CoV-2 variant infections and vaccinations are powerfully shaped by prior exposures to earlier SARS-CoV-2 vaccines, according to a new study. Antibody responses to new ...
