Cancer-fighting T cells can lose their edge after prolonged exposure to tumors. New research from Memorial Sloan Kettering ...

A large study of historically smallpox-vaccinated individuals finds residual but uneven immunity, with chronic disease and ...

Discover how regular exercise supercharges your immune system at a cellular level. Learn how physical activity mobilizes ...

Researchers led by Cedars-Sinai Health Sciences University have identified PD-L2 as a protein that may help damaged cells ...

The pGen-SHM plot combines BCR generation probability and somatic hypermutation to track humoral immune recovery after stem cell transplantation. The approach has revealed distinct maturation patterns ...

T cell immunity plays a pivotal role in the host defence against SARS-CoV-2, complementing humoral responses and contributing to viral clearance, disease modulation and long-term protection. Upon ...

Knipe and colleagues found that when a class of viruses known as enveloped viruses enter a cell by fusion at the plasma membrane, tremors in the cell scaffolding cause ruptures in the membrane of the ...

New research in Nature shows that gamma delta T cells rely on their adaptive T cell receptors in real time to mount rapid, ...

T cell immunity constitutes a central pillar of the adaptive immune response to SARS-CoV-2, acting in concert with antibodies to prevent severe disease. CD4⁺ helper T cells orchestrate antiviral ...

Northwestern Medicine scientists have identified the cellular mechanisms that cause immune cells to differentiate and ultimately lose function during viral infection, findings that could improve ...

When a virus enters the lungs, the immune system has to react fast. The lung maintains its own community of immune cells capable of mounting a local defense on the spot. Researchers from the ...

Regular exercise makes our immune cells more vigilant, potentially contributing to better long-term health, a new study finds ...
