We know that the process of viral uptake into cells begins with interactions between proteins hemagglutinin and neuraminidase on the virus’s surface and sialic acid on the cell membrane, which trigger ...

Scientists have captured an unprecedented, real-time view of influenza viruses as they move across and slip inside human ...

The death toll and economic damage associated with flu highlight its role as one of the most harmful viruses in history.

The flu illness is triggered by influenza viruses, which enter the body through droplets and then infect cells. Researchers from Switzerland and Japan have now investigated the flu virus in minute ...

For the first time, researchers have observed live and in high resolution how influenza (“flu”) viruses infect living cells. This was possible thanks to a new microscopy technique, developed at ETH ...

Scientists have captured a never-before-seen, high-resolution look at influenza’s stealthy invasion of human cells, revealing that the cells aren’t just helpless victims. Using a groundbreaking ...

Cells actively help to capture and incorporate influenza viruses. Here, a cell is shown, with a virus in the centre of the image. Fever, aching limbs and a runny nose – as winter returns, so too does ...

FILE - This colorized electron microscope image released by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases on March 26, 2024, shows avian influenza A H5N1 virus particles (yellow), grown in ...

Fever, aching limbs and a runny nose – as winter returns, so too does the flu. The disease is triggered by influenza viruses, which enter our body through droplets and then infect cells. Researchers ...

As of Dec. 20, the North Bay and Parry Sound districts had 267 lab-confirmed cases, compared to just three at the same time ...
