[ad_1] Researchers in Korea and the United States have identified new genetic variants that demonstrate active mutational progression of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the agent that causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Two of the mutations occurred in the receptor binding domain of the viral spike protein, the …

[ad_1] Children with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) sometimes develop multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C), which is associated with high morbidity. The underlying mechanism associated with T cells is described by the researchers in a new study published on the prepress server bioRxiv* in November 2020, in response to superantigen …

[ad_1] A study conducted at the United States Army Research Institute of Infectious Diseases shows how a relatively simple full-length DNA vaccine against the spike glycoprotein of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) can elicit a neutralizing antibody response in a animal model – even after a single shot …
Read More »Nafamostat mesylate initially reduces SARS-CoV-2 viral load in hamsters, according to study
[ad_1] The researchers found that nafamostat mesylate, when injected into the nasal cavity of Syrian hamsters, can reduce the initial viral load of SARS-CoV-2 in the nose. However, this effect was temporary and further tests are needed to determine clinically significant effects. The hunt group results are available on the …
