A giant fullerene system inhibits the infection by an artificial Ebola virus
Madrid, Spain (SPX) Nov 13, 2015 - Different studies have demonstrated that the ebola virus infection process starts when the virus reaches the cellular DC-SIGN receptor to infect the dendritic cells (of the immune system). European researchers have designed a "giant" molecule formed by thirteen fullerenes covered by carbohydrates which, by blocking this receptor, are able to inhibit the cell infection by an artificial ebola viru ... more
