  • Scientists from Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) have made a new discovery that could change malaria and Covid-19 treatment.
  • They identified a human protein, Hsp70, as a critical factor in the spread of diseases like malaria and Covid-19.
  • Hsp70 (Heat Shock Protein 70) is a type of molecular chaperone.
  • It is a protein that plays a vital role in helping other proteins fold into their proper shapes and preventing misfolding.
  • By targeting Hsp70, we can disrupt the Pathogens’ ability to replicate and protect themselves from the immune system.
