Scientists develop molecule that blocks covid-19 infection

Live Mint  

Scientists have developed a new molecule that attaches to the surface of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and prevents it from entering human cells and spreading the COVID-19 infection. The researchers at Aarhus University in Denmark noted that the molecule is cheaper and easier to manufacture than the antibodies currently used to treat COVID-19, and to detect viral infection using rapid antigen …

New RNA-based Therapy Protects Mice from Coronavirus, Variants Including Delta: Study

News 18  

Researchers have identified an RNA molecule that stimulates the body’s early antiviral defence system, and can protect mice from a range of variants of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes Covid-19. The researchers noted that treating patients with short RNA molecules that mimic SARS-CoV-2’s genetic material and activate the RIG-I receptor to stimulate production of type I interferons by the body’s …

Brazilian viper venom may become tool in fight against Covid-19: Study

India Today  

Brazilian researchers have found that a molecule in the venom of a type of snake inhibited coronavirus reproduction in monkey cells, a possible first step toward a drug to combat the virus causing Covid-19. A study published in the scientific journal Molecules this month found that the molecule produced by the jararacussu pit viper inhibited the virus's ability to multiply …

How coronavirus molecules 'camouflage' in host cell decoded, may lead to drug development

India TV News  

Scientists, including those of Indian-origin, have resolved the structure of a molecule which the novel coronavirus uses to make its genetic sequence seem like a part of the host's own, an advance that may lead to the development of new antiviral drugs against COVID-19. According to the study, published in the journal Nature Communications, the molecule nsp10 modifies the viral …
