Virus breakthrough raises hope over ending common cold

“Scientists say they have made a landmark discovery which could pave the way for new drugs to beat illnesses like the common cold. Until now experts had thought that antibodies could only tackle viral infections by blocking or attacking viruses outside cells. But work done by the Medical Research Council shows antibodies can pass into cells and fight viruses from within. PNAS journal said the finding held promise for a new antiviral drugs. The Cambridge scientists stressed that it would take years of work and testing to find new therapies, and said that the pathway they had discovered would not work on all viruses.” More…

Tom Peck: Yet another triumph for the place they call ‘the Nobel Prize factory’

“The lab got its 14th Nobel award last year. It traces its roots back to the discovery of the DNA double helix. Revelations about man’s abilities to battle viruses are just the latest “Eureka” moments to occur inside Cambridge’s world-renowned Laboratory of Molecular Biology – which has been dubbed “the Nobel Prize factory”.” More…
