    Interesting because current immunology theory doesnt have any role for antibodies w/i the cell. This paper shows that non-enveloped antibody with antibodies bound to them, actually bring the ab into the cell with them and activate a mechanism to start removing the virus.

    Very interesting. Goes against the grain of what I was taught about immunity, within the cell.
