Developing a viable vaccine against dengue virus has proved difficult because the pathogen is actually four different virus types, or serotypes. Unless a vaccine protects against all four, a vaccine can wind up doing more harm than good. To help vaccine developers overcome this hurdle, the UNC ...
However, the development of new drugs is lagging behind the need for them because of the long process necessary to prove their efficacy and safety [25]. To overcome the limitations and to improve antiviral treatments, multidisciplinary research efforts are required toward the development of ...
To overcome the size and stability limitations of mRNA-encoded mAb, a lot of research has been done on both heavy-chain only antibodies or VHH and the generation of small non-antibody based scaffolds [96,97,98]. There are two types of non-antibody scaffolds, namely (i) domain-sized ...
June to October is the monsoon season. While it is technically still a good time to visit Laos since the rain doesn’t typically last all day, it might be tricky to get to remote areas in the country due to road flooding. Plus, the high humidity can lead to an increased risk for wat...
In fact, early warning systems designed to do just this have been developed in recent years to help control outbreaks of malaria, dengue fever and other diseases in parts of the tropics. But their implementation has been undercut by funding uncertainties, overburdened local health systems, insuffi...
During the immersion, field researchers examined the records at health centers and although women and children were more likely to have sought treatment, this was explained because indigenous men were more likely to think they were strong enough to overcome it without medication. People also ...
Studies show dysbiosis is a common cause of acne, eczema, chronic wounds, and other skin conditions. Experts recommend using probiotic skin care products to overcome these issues. Since probiotics contain various good microbes, they can support other healthy bacteria in your body and restore the ba...

2016). Beyond such regional considerations, once a species arrives, they must initially survive the local urban environment to become established. Survival will depend on traits that influence morphology, phenology, physiology and behaviour, enabling individuals to overcome the range of dispersal, ...
To help overcome that, researchers from MIT and the Singapore-MIT Alliance for Research and Technology (SMART) have produced a "humanized mouse" that mimics many features of the human immune system. These mice can be infected withdenguevirus, allowing researchers to observe how the infection progr...
