How do pathogens invade the lungs? Using human lung microtissues, a team has uncovered the strategy used by a dangerous pathogen. The bacterium targets specific lung cells and has developed a ...
When our body is attacked by a pathogen, the pathogen has to find ways to evade our immune system and invade our cells to cause infection and illness. Reporting in Cell, researchers have now ...
In a recent study published in PLoS Biology, researchers showed that life history features of pathogens help determine the age of humans when they have the highest probability of being infected with ...
Humans have been getting infected by ancient bacteria and viruses for at least 37,000 years. Now, for the first time, pathogen DNA has uncovered a pivotal disease "turning point" that happened 6,500 ...
Emerging pathogens and chemical contaminants disrupt normal interaction in the environmental ecosystem. These contaminants may decimate the biotic components of the environment, leading to the ...
Cleveland Clinic recently received a $2.9 million federal grant to study an emerging tick-borne virus pathogen — the latest funding secured by research occurring within the system's Global Center for ...
The bacterium, which commonly occurs in aquatic environments such as ponds, river and oceans has evolved a strong capability to grow, survive and sometimes transmit to humans. One of the ways the ...
Everyone knows rats, bats, mold and mosquitoes can make people sick, but a new study out this week concludes such pathogens and hundreds more are made worse by the warming world. A group of University ...
