The flu virus is constantly evolving, meaning immunity from past infections or vaccinations may not fully protect against new ...

As cases of H5N1 bird flu rise across the U.S., some of us may be more immune to the virus than others. Many people may have immune cells called "T cells" primed and ready to fight the "highly ...

"When a flu virus infects a cell, its genetic material goes in as multiple different segments or pieces," she explained in the video, posted November 18, 2024.

These viruses can also wreak havoc on animals, as in the case of avian flu. A team from the University of Geneva (UNIGE) has identified how the influenza A virus manages to penetrate cells to infect ...

An image from a scanning electron microscopy shows human lung cells coinfected with Flu-A and RSV producing hybrid viral particles. Flu particles (pink) and RSV filaments (green) bud from the cell ...

It is the most detailed image of a human cell to date, obtained via radiography, nuclear MRI, and cryoelectronic microscopy." As we'll explain below, that description is completely inaccurate.

Scientists have discovered that H5N1, the strain of highly pathogenic avian influenza virus currently spreading in U.S. dairy cows, only needs a single mutation to readily latch on to human cells ...

Scientists have caught a virus in the act of infecting a cell, and captured images of the action in real-time and three dimensions. This work was made possible by combining a technique called lattice ...
