Lung tumors don't just evade the immune system. They reshape it at its source. Researchers from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and collaborators report in the September 10 online issue of ...

A team of immunologists at the University of Massachusetts Amherst has turned what we know about T-cells, one of the most important parts of the body's immune system, on its head, opening the door to ...

Researchers have published the first description of the role of the ZFP36 family of RNA binding proteins in regulatory T cells (Tregs). Tregs are key to maintaining balance in the immune system and ...

The inflammation-promoting cells emerge only in older mice, researchers found. Although the cells’ precise role is unclear, ...

Researchers have discovered the “fountain of youth” for cells - but it comes with a big cost. Some people over 60 years old were found to have immune systems that appear to be much younger in wear-and ...

A breakthrough AI system is revolutionizing cancer immunotherapy by enabling scientists to design protein-based keys that train a patient s immune cells to attack cancer with extreme precision. This ...

People are exposed to millions of fungal spores every day, even potentially harmful ones like those from Aspergillus ...

Antibodies, which recognize viruses and proteins that the body has encountered before, have long gotten most of the credit for giving the human immune system a memory. Now, researchers at the ...
