MED TALKS

HEY guys i am back with a blog on a very interesting new topic . As you have seen the name of today's topic when somebody sees this word "cure" our eyes brighten up especially in this case for a disease which has been more famous for its incurability rather than what it does . I'm sure that for a layman if we ask him that what comes to your mind when you hear the word  "HIV" they probably would say that it is an STD and then the next line would be its incurable , but if we ask them how does it affect or whats the mechanism ,  they most probably wouldn't know . So the main thing is how do we cure this freakin' disease ??? MECHANISM  So basically what happens is when HIV infects the body it attacks the "T LYMPHOCYTES" which are the integral part of our immune system and they use the cellular mechanism of those cells to reproduce themselves and then attack other cells that's why there is an uncertainty in the onset period of AIDS . ...

Hello guys , this month i did a research on a very known epidemic virus "THE ZIKA VIRUS". So during the research i found out about the virus . STRUCTURE  Let us start with the structure , it's structure is made up of 10 protiens , out of which 7 are non-structural and 3 are structual . out of these three structural protiens , one protein makes the outer coat which is a glyprotein that gives the virus an icosahedral shape . Talking about genetics it has a single stranded non segmented RNA weighing around , i guess 10 kilobases . Since being related to the spondveni virus family it also has a ssss 12kda capsid protien and the neucleocapsid , is derived from the host itself to adapt to the internal environment of the host. INFECTION A study shows that after around six hours of infection the vacuoles of the cell that it enters and their mitochondria begin to swell ultimateley causing PARAPTOSIS means cell death . We do have a line of defence called IFITM3 protien...
