Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center investigators report that T cell interferon-γ (IFNγ) orchestrates a ...

Biomedical engineers at Georgia Tech created a treatment that could one day unlock a universal strategy for treating some of ...

have found that inflammation in an immune cell may be responsible in part for some severe symptoms in a group of rare genetic conditions called lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs). LSDs affect about ...

The body defends itself against pathogens by depriving them of vital iron. However, this strategy doesn't always succeed against Salmonella. Researchers have discovered that these bacteria ...

The team’s preclinical study results indicate that the TC IV subset of this recently discovered class of immune cells, which was first described by MSK researchers in 2022, plays an essential ...

Innate immune cells are white blood cells that mediate innate immunity and include basophils, dendritic cells, eosinophils, Langerhans cells, mast cells, monocytes and macrophages, neutrophils and ...

"There was existing evidence that inflammatory processes in the brain play a role in development of the disease," Dr. Beyer explains, "So we studied microglia, which are the immune cells of the ...

Cercek was testing whether people like Sideris could be treated with a checkpoint inhibitor, a relatively new type of cancer treatment that frees the body’s immune cells to recognize and attack ...

The decrease in CD4 cells during HIV infection seems to be driven by immune activation, which does not always correlate with viral load. Experienced clinicians are all too familiar with the ...

The treatment involves using stem cells to "program" human immune cells, called microglia, to counteract signs of dementia in the brain, according to a press release from UCI. Microglia are immune ...

Researchers at the University of California, Irvine created lab-grown immune cells that can track down toxic brain buildup and clear it away, restoring memory and brain function in mice.

T-cells are the foundational immune cells that fight off infections, but there is evidence that this specific subtype is recognizing certain foods as allergenic and attacking them, according to ...
