"We have created DRACOs and shown that they are nontoxic in 11 mammalian cell types and effective against 15 different viruses,
Sony HDR-SR7, including dengue flavivirus,
Dell Latitude E4200, Amapari and Tacaribe arenaviruses,
Panasonic AG HVX205A, Guama bunyavirus,
Canon XF100, and H1N1 influenza,
Panasonic AG-HVX200A," wrote the team from MIT's Lincoln Laboratory in their research published in the journal PLoS One. "We have also demonstrated that DRACOs can rescue mice challenged with H1N1 influenza."
DRACOs have been tested on human and animal cells,
hp EB 8460P, and the researchers say they've observed no side effects.
The Dengue Fever virus in action (the cluster of dark dots near the center).
The drug goes by the name DRACO (Double-stranded RNA Activated Caspase Oligomerizer--uh,
Sony HDR-FX1000, I'll stick with the acronym) and is made using the defense mechanism of living cells. The drug reportedly attacks cells that have been infected with a virus,
HP EliteBook 8740w XT909UT, without harming healthy cells. DRACO attaches itself to virus-tainted cells and contains a protein that initiates a process by which the infected cells kill themselves. If DRACO encounters a healthy cell along the way,
ThinkPad T420s, it simply waves hello and leaves it alone.
The idea of a one-size-fits-all approach to creating antiviral drugs has the potential for huge implications. Until now,
Lenovo ThinkPad T410 2518-C4U, drugmakers have had to design a new drug to fight each individual virus strain,
Sony AX2000, and because viruses like to be sneaky and mutate often,
ELITE 8540W, it's been an ongoing battle to keep up with them.
Scientists at MIT say they've developed a promising new drug that appears to not only be able to attack the common cold,
Canon XHA1S, but just about any other virus as well.
Even if DRACOs live up to their revolutionary potential,
HP EliteBook 8740w, it could be years before they become available to the general public. Several years of clinical trials likely await before the superdrug is ready for prime time.

DRACOs have been found to be effective against all these viruses so far.
Yes,
Sony HDR-TD10, that's the same H1N1 that the world freaked out about a few years back; and the first one is Dengue Fever,
Canon Vixia HF S10, which is spread by tropical mosquitoes,
Sony HDR-FX7, is related to the West Nile virus,
THINKPAD X220, can do seriously terrible things to a person,
HP EliteBook 8740w XT908UT, and up until now has had no known cure.
