David Julius and Ardem Patapoutian have won the 2021 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine, with their work being used to develop treatments for conditions such as chronic pain.
Scientists have created a RT-ddPCR assay to analyse both the non-coding and coding RNA regions of SARS-CoV-2.
The field of oncology has successfully applied precision medicine approaches to diagnosis and treatment. Success has been driven by a growing understanding of the underlying biology of cancer; the emergence of innovative tools and technologies for biomarker identification and detection; and considerable advocacy by patients, physicians and policymakers that has…
A possible treatment and vaccine combination for COVID-19 has shown positive results in pre-clinical studies using human cells.
The identification of host dependency factors mediating virus infection may provide key insights into effective molecular targets for developing broadly acting antiviral therapeutics against SARS-CoV-2 and other deadly coronavirus strains. Here, Joseph Steward highlights key findings of recent research.
Drugs that were being developed to treat enterovirus have also been found to treat certain cancers in mice.
Researchers have discovered a particular protein that is required for enterovirus replication and survival, presenting a therapeutic target.
