Study shows how the brain's tool for waste clearance malfunctions during bacterial meningitis

Bacterial meningitis is a life-threatening infectious disease of the brain that leaves many survivors with long-lasting neurological impairments.

Is there an association between the gut microbiome of people within different countries and the severity of COVID-19?

Researchers explored the complex relationship between the gut microbiome of people in different countries and the observed COVID-19 severity, measured as the hospitalization rate of the corresponding country.

High-throughput proteomics reveals pregnancy-specific responses to COVID-19

Researchers evaluated pregnancy-specific responses to SARS-CoV-2 infection.

How does the maternal immune response balance SARS-CoV-2 antiviral responses with transplacental transfer of protection to the fetus?

Researchers found that in SARS-CoV-2 maternal infection, the balance between antiviral response and transplacental transfer of humoral and cellular protection relies on maternal IL-6 and IL10.

Research characterizes clinical and epidemiologic features of SARS-CoV-2 in pets

Researchers analyze the clinical and epidemiological features of SARS-CoV-2 infection in dogs and cats in the United States.

New study provides comparison of replicating and non-replicating vaccines against SARS-CoV-2

A new study reported a single-cell adenovirus (SC-Ad) which replicates the antigen genes substantially without producing infectious progeny.

Study reveals clues what makes the human brain distinct from others

What makes the human brain distinct from that of all other animals - including even our closest primate relatives? In an analysis of cell types in the prefrontal cortex of four primate species, Yale researchers identified species-specific - particularly human-specific - features, they report Aug. 25 in the journal Science.

COVID-19 pandemic: An epidemiological update

Epidemics and pandemics have been frightening the human chase again and again. SARS, H1N1, Ebola, and more have exposed their real face in the past, but with every such outbreak.

Researchers discover the vital role of immune cells in liver regeneration

If liver tissue has to be removed due to cancer or another liver disease, the organ usually regenerates quickly, soon becoming fully functional once again.

The role of SARS-CoV-2-specific T cells induced by infection, vaccination, or their combination in disease protection

Researchers evaluated how SARS-CoV-2-specific-T lymphocytes induced by infection, vaccination, or both conferred protection against severe COVID-19.
