In a study published in May 2009 issue of PLoS Pathogens, Manchester and her colleagues show that CPMV interacts with the mammalian protein vimentin — an interaction that scientists can now explore ...
A virus that typically infects black-eyed peas is showing great promise as a low-cost, potent cancer immunotherapy—and researchers are uncovering why. In a study published in Cell Biomaterials, a team ...
The researchers tested CPMV in mice and even in pet dogs with cancer. In both cases, the results were striking. When they injected the virus directly into tumors, it called in an army of immune ...
Viruses aren't always bad. In fact, scientists can harness the capabilities of some viruses for good—modifying the viruses to carry drug molecules, for example. One useful virus has been cowpea mosaic ...
