The common cold is typically caused by viruses, most often rhinoviruses, which infect the upper respiratory tract (nose and throat). 1 Zinc has been reported to block the replication of rhinovirus. By ...

The film discusses the nature of viruses, including their structure, reproduction, and the diseases they cause. It explains how viruses are incredibly small and require a host cell to survive and ...

The mosquito-borne Zika virus is known for causing microcephaly, a birth defect in which abnormal brain development results in a smaller-than-expected head. A new study published Jan. 13 in mBio shows ...

The mosquito-borne Zika virus hijacks a host protein called ANKLE2 to support its own reproduction. ANKLE2 is involved in brain development in the fetus and because Zika can cross the placenta and ...
