Is rhinovirus a retrovirus? Why does a retrovirus copy itself into DNA? Does a retrovirus cause VRSA? What role do genes play in protein synthesis? What kind of polymerase is found in a retrovirus? How does a retrovirus integrate?
What is the EB virus? What is its relationship to infectious mononucleosis? What is a major health concern with gonorrhea? What does it mean for a virus to be zoonotic? Describe one such virus and the disease that it causes. Name three bacteria that commonly cause pneumonia. Whi...
The diversity of viral infections is immense. Viruses cause everything from common cold (rhinoviruses) to Ebola and warts (papillomavirus); from HIV/AIDS to influenza and smallpox. Many viruses can cause cancer: the hepatitis B virus is a known cause of liver cancer, and some types of huma...
Rhinovirus infections commonly evoke asthma exacerbations in children and adults. Recurrent asthma exacerbations are associated with injury-repair responses in the airways that collectively contribute to airway remodeling. The physiological consequences of airway remodeling can manifest as irreversible airway ...

Certain nerves in the face and head become hyperactive, signaling pain sensations that aren’t there. This occurs due to nerve impingement (a trapped nerve, when too much pressure is on a nerve), disruptions of blood circulation, nerve inflammation or damage, or chronic underlying conditions.1 ...
Viruses inject their DNA into their hosts, thus preserving their DNA and allowing it to replicate. It is estimated that 100,000 genes in our genome are from viruses. That’s about 8% of our genome. Yes, you are in some sense a giant walking virus… (Humanity has been compared to a ...

as it was thought to also have antiviral effects, anti-inflammatory activity, be able to change the immune response and may work well with other antiviral treatments. Inin vitrolaboratory studies azithromycin has demonstrated antiviral activity against Zika virus and against rhinoviruses, which cause ...
22 This has been further studied in ex vivo models which show a beneficial effect of omalizumab on viral clearance and interferon levels. Recently, Heymann et al., investigated whether the administration of omalizumab could diminish the asthmatic response in patients inoculated with rhinovirus 16, ...
