Quercetin May Reduce Severity of Dengue Viral Infection | Health and Wellness News
wellnessresources.com — “Quercetin is a flavonoid that has demonstrated anti-viral properties against a wide range of viral infections, including the flu. In the current cell study quercetin was shown to reduce viral replication of the dengue fever virus by 67%. Quercetin does not appear to have direct anti-viral properties or to prevent viral entry into cells. Rather, it appears to work on the gene signaling relating to energy production in virally infected cells, significantly inhibiting the ability of the virus to re” View full resource at wellnessresources.com

SIV-resistant monkeys close the gates to viral infection
sciencedaily.com — “Sooty mangabeys, a type of African monkey, can survive infection by SIV, a relative of HIV, and not succumb to AIDS. Researchers have now identified a way some of sooty mangabeys' immune cells resist infection: they close the gates that SIV and HIV use to get into the cell. The findings may lead to strategies to help HIV-infected individuals cope better with infection.” View full resource at sciencedaily.com
