“This study explores the role of the skin as a potential route of Ebola virus infection and identifies, for the first time, several cell types in the skin that are permissive to infection ...

Researchers at the University of Iowa (UI) Health Care and colleagues at the Texas Biomedical Research Institute, and Boston University, used human skin explants to track the cellular route that ...

To enter a human cell, an ebolavirus glycoprotein has to attach — or bind ... helped discover the cholesterol-trafficking protein Niemann-Pick C1 (NPC1) as this critical Ebola entry receptor.

The nanobodies work in different ways to stop Ebola. The virus hides the part it uses to attach to human cells under a protective layer. Nanosota-EB1 prevents this layer from opening, blocking the ...

Glycoproteins typically bind to receptors on the membrane of a host cell. Viruses that do not bud from the host cell membrane do not have an envelope, so they are called “naked” or ...
