A group of researchers from the Conicet made a discovery that could represent a decisive step forward in the fight against viral diseases such as dengue, zika and yellow fever. The study identified a mechanism of replication shared among the three viruses and detected molecules capable of blocking that process. The finding was presented as a key step in the development of future antiviral treatments, since the three diseases belong to the flaviv…
CONICET researchers came to a discovery that lays the foundation for the possible development of common antiviral treatments for diseases such as dengue, Zika and yellow fever. Twenty years ago, the group led by virologist Andrea Gamarnik, researcher at CONICET at the Instituto de Investigaciones Bioquímicas de Buenos Aires (IIBBA, CONICET-Fundación Instituto [...] The entry CONICET: find a common mechanism of replication in dengue, Zika and yel…
Argentines Find that Dengue, Zika and Yellow Fever Replicate in the Same Way: an Antiviral Is Coming
Buenos Aires, 26 May (NA) -- The team of Argentine scientists who twenty years ago revealed how the dengue virus is used to replicate its genetic material and infect mosquitoes and humans, now obtained a new milestone: to demonstrate that this mechanism of replication is “universal” for all viruses of the same gender, which includes Zika and yellow fever, among more than 20 viruses that cause different diseases. It is the group led by virologist…
