How Ebola Virus Infects a Cell

This 3-D animation shows how the Ebola virus exploits a naturally occurring protein in our cells called NPC1 to cause infection and spread in the body. Narrated by Kartik Chandran, Ph.D., professor of microbiology & immunology at Albert Einstein College of Medicine. Link to full video:

This is amazing. They are so small and they do so much damage. They have figured out our genetic makeup *FASTER THAN WE HAVE! AMAZING!*

[hube]

YES FINALLY, this is exactly what I was looking for, thanks!

[Ferdinand..]

Our immune system is way more complex than what is explaind in this video. This video wants the viewers to believe that our immune system is incapable of fighting ebola virus. Our brain can send signals to fix the virus entries in the gene sequence. Our bodies work in a very complex manner and there are so many things are still less understood or unknown even to the scientific community.

We Indians are really lucky that there was no outbreak of Ebola Virus in our country

Even if we can do that the virus will evaluate and find a new way to do what he needs to do. Nature is robust and complex.

White blood cell:ATTACK THE GIANT you cant defeat me
White blood cell + antibodys:Now?
Ebola:now !
[After a huge fight]
White blood cell + antibody:YEAAAHH TOAST!! WE WIN

Thank you so much sir was really helpful

[perfectcell]

[yvondenis]

Where can this be observe that is not animation ? Please anybody, I've been searching for something real showing a virus braking through a cell for months add still nothing. I'd realy appreciates.

[Berny]

So your body is basically working with Ebola bruh

[zzqgcxg]

Wow! Do you have a fragment of this peptide ? Or do you know this structure? How does this work? Are you trying to block interaction in vitro or in silico?

This hero is TOO OP ! New CANCER EBOLA Pogchamp
