Understanding how viral infection occurs can provide important clues for researchers to develop strategies to prevent viral transmission and develop effective therapeutic agents and vaccines. SARS-CoV ...
Ciliates, a group of single-celled ciliated eukaryotes, have been studied since the dawn of light microscopy, with over 10,000 species described. Cilia are the key feature of ciliates and contribute ...
Scientists present a new understanding of the connection between two distinct mechanisms for pumping fluids in living organisms: the 'flame' model and the 'carpet' model of ciliated ducts. The new ...
Researchers have found that nasal ciliated cells are targeted at the onset of COVID-19 infection, which may open the potential to prevent infection by establishing nasal mucosal immunity. The COVID-19 ...
La Jolla, CA – Cilia, tiny hair-like structures that propel mucus out of airways, have to agree on the direction of the fluid flow to get things moving. Researchers at the Salk Institute for ...
The establishment of nasal mucosal immunity against SARS-CoV-2 through a nasal vaccine could be the most efficient way to combat COVID-19 infection. Understanding how viral infection occurs can ...
