Insects possess a remarkable ability to develop innate immune memory, and the mechanisms underlying this process are becoming a central topic in innate immunity research.

Whether antiretroviral therapy (ART) is always completely suppressive, or HIV might continue to replicate at low levels despite ART in some people with HIV (PWH), is still debated. Here, we ...

The DNA is taken up into the host cell, translated, and the protein product expressed. Viral protein is made intracellularly and the protein is processed via the endogenous MHC class I pathway.

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remains a major global health concern, necessitating the development of sensitive and reliable diagnostic methods. In this study, we propose a novel approach to ...

Cold sore virus hijacks human genome in 3D--and scientists found its weak spot HSV-1 reshapes the human genome for its own benefit. Targeting a host enzyme can completely halt the hostile takeover ...

While other herpes viruses have been seen compacting and reshaping host chromosomes, it was unclear whether it was a side effect of the virus invading and setting up its own viral replication ...
