Interferons
Interferons are a group of signaling proteins released by cells in response to viral infections. They help to induce a state of resistance in neighboring cells, making them less susceptible to viral replication and spread. Additionally, some hormones like cortisol can also play a role in modulating the immune response against viruses.
Yes, viruses can reproduce inside host cells by hijacking the host cell's machinery to make copies of themselves. This can cause the host cell to burst, releasing the newly formed viruses to infect other cells.
Virus: is a strand of hereditary material surrounded by a protein coating that can infect and multiply in a host cell. Host Cell: a living cell invaded by or capable of being invaded by an infectious agent.
Yes. This is the reason that viruses infect cells. The virus injects its genetic material, either DNA or RNA, which then takes over the cell's activities and turns the cell into a virus factory, causing the cell to make new virus parts and assemble them. Eventually the cell ruptures and the new viruses are free to infect other cells.
No viruses do not have homeostasis. They have no cellular activities because they are not made of cells. Viruses do not respond or adapt to the environment. Any changes in the viruses are brought about by the host cells that make the new copies of the virus. When science says that viruses evolve, it is really the host cell that makes the changes in the virus. So the virus type accumulates these changes, but it doesn't make the changes itself.

Viruses make us sick by invading our bodies and hijacking our cells to replicate themselves. This process can damage our cells and tissues, leading to symptoms of illness as our immune system responds to the infection.
Cytokines, also known as immune factors, are protein produced naturally by the cells and organs of the human immune system. They act on other immune system cells modulating the body's response to disease and infection. Cytokines can also regulate the growth of new blood cells in the bone marrow.Cytokines play a crucial role in the immune system response to all kinds of disease. They interact with organs and cells, alone and in combination with each other. The diverse role that cytokines serve in the immune system make them an ideal target for intervening or bolstering immune responses. Using recombinant DNA technology cytokines can be created in a laboratory. They have many treatment applications including cancer, multiple sclerosis, anaemia, and rheumatoid arthritis.
Cells, they reproduce by invading a cell and using its functions to make more viruses, eventually killing a cell. That's why viruses are bad, and that where they "hide".
If im correct, helper t-cells activate: b-cells that mark viruses and make them stick together, killer t-cells --which attack macrophages and infected cells, and memory b-cells, which remember how to stop viruses, this i believe is called active immunity

A virus is a solid but very tiny particle. It high jacks another cells to make more viruses.

Viruses do not produce waste because they lack metabolic processes to generate waste products. Viruses are not considered living organisms and depend on host cells to replicate and multiply.

The body expels viruses by itself, using white blood cells.
