The articles in this collection are from BioWorld’s ongoing coverage of the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic. They are available for free with registration. Note that we have added three critical tables, which are continuously updated:
Capricor Therapeutics Inc.'s Stealthx exosome-based multivalent vaccine for the prevention of SARS-CoV-2 has been selected to be part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Project Nextgen initiative aimed at developing COVID-19 vaccines offering broader and more durable protection.
Several highly pathogenic viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, share a conserved mechanism of infection via the fusion of the viral and host membranes employing a six-helix bundle (6-HB) heptad repeat.
Researchers from Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais have published details on the discovery of novel anti-SARS-CoV-2 compounds with robust antiviral activity.
The COVID-19 virus may keep mutating, but new findings from Korean researchers at the Institute of Basic Science (IBS) offer a silver lining: human immunity is adapting, too.
Researchers at ETH Zurich have identified a proteomic signature that could recognize long COVID six months after acute infection. Biologically, the signature indicated that the complement system remained active in patients with long COVID six months after infection. Translationally, it could lead to a diagnostic test for long COVID, and suggests that targeting the complement system could be a therapeutic approach to prevent or treat the disorder.
Exevir Bio BV has released new data demonstrating that its antibodies are highly potent in neutralizing currently circulating COVID-19 omicron variants.
Trawsfynydd Therapeutics Inc. has identified 3C-like proteinase (3CLpro; Mpro; nsp5) (SARS-CoV-2; COVID-19) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of SARS-CoV-2 infection (COVID-19).
University of Alberta has divulged 3C-like proteinase (3CLpro; Mpro; nsp5) (SARS-CoV-2; COVID-19 virus) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of viral infections.
University of Minnesota has divulged nonstructural protein 14 (NSP14) (SARS-CoV-2) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of SARS-CoV-2 infection.
