Anti-viral Agents
Anti-viral agents inhibit viral replication rather than eliminating viral particles already present.

Antiviral Therapy
In order to be effective, antiviral agents must be capable of reaching the infected organ(s) and preventing viral replication without affecting host cell function.

Bacteria Horizontal Gene Transfer
Although bacterial reproduction results in the generation of clones, prokaryotes can undergo genetic recombination through transformation, transduction, and conjugation.

Viral Genes in Human Genome
The genetic blueprint of every human contains a significant amount of DNA that is not actually human. Dormant fossil viruses have infiltrated our genome.

Viral Lytic Cycle Replication
Bacteriophages are a special type of virus that exclusively infects bacterial cells. Here's how they recognize, take over and ultimately kill their host bacteria.

Viral Phage Replication & Bacteria
Bacteriophages are a particular type of virus that infects only bacterial cells. Ultimately the virus kills its host, but sometimes it first becomes a hidden prophage.

Avian Flu Pandemic
Avian influenza A virus has the potential to evolve into a strain that can effectively be spread person-to-person.

HIV Study Seeks Participants
A $20.5 million grant enables expansion of an international program investing the biological factors underlying immune system control of HIV, the virus that causes AIDS.

Viral Virion Lysogenic Replication
Bacteriophages reproduce by commandeering a bacterium and ultimately killing it. But sometimes, through lysogeny, the phage doesn't immediately take over its host.

Herpes Infection and Reactivation
The herpes family of viruses enter a latent (silent) phase of infection following initial infection, but can be reactivated resulting in recurrent infection.

HIV Infection and Response
The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) battles with cells of the host immune system to spread infection.

Infections Caused by Herpes Virus
Herpes viruses are second only to influenza and cold viruses in causing human disease. Fifty to eighty percent of adolescents and adults have herpes infections.

The Game of War
Scientists continue to study the human immunodeficiency virus and the host cell's response to infection in an attempt to prevent, slow and/or effectively treat infection.

Understanding HIV Infection
Although an HIV infection causes symptoms, it can only be diagnosed through an HIV antibodies test. Find out about the follow-up after confirmation of HIV+ status.

What Is a Bacteriophage?
This series of articles explores how viruses that exclusively infect bacterial cells recognize the hosts they parasitize and reproduce once the bacterium is infected.

Yellow Fever
Yellow fever is caused by a virus transmitted by the bite of a mosquito during a blood meal. The disease may be mild or severe resulting in death in 5-70% of those infect

Antibody Response
Antibodies circulating in the bloodstream bind to antigens that they recognize and attack them.

Cytokines
Cytokines include a number of different proteins that modulate the immune response; cytokines contribute to symptoms and their severity in autoimmune disease.

HIV Protection
A mutation in the CCR5 chemokine receptor gene has been discovered that provides protection against infection by HIV-1, the most common strain in North America.

Oxidative Stress and the Neuropathies
NAC - N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) is effective in the treatment of HIV and the related symptoms that stem from this disease. It is also possible that due to the many similarities of most aspects of HIV and the Neuropathies - that there is common ground here and that the solution to one may be also the solution to the other. Thus - an introduction to the presence of and the current research involving NAC.
