Scientists from Denmark said that the coronavirus also has its own “Achilles heel” or a weak spot.
According to ToDay News Ufa, the invulnerable, indestructible and everywhere penetrating coronavirus has already done so many troubles that this epidemic will be remembered for a long time. However, specialists managed to find his weak spot.
By cunning, COVID-19 resembles the herpes virus. It also bypasses the immune system and affects various organs. In the course of research, it was found that herpes inhibits the STING protein in cells, which is produced when a serious threat occurs. The virus blocks this useful protein, the development of the disease slows down slightly, the immune system decides that the threat is gone and calms down. And then the disease abruptly takes its toll. Coronavirus also comes.
Now experts are trying to figure out how to prevent protein blockage and prevent the virus from multiplying. If specialists succeed in calculating the blocking scheme for protein production and stopping it, then in the future physicians will receive an effective method for eliminating a wide variety of viruses.
