Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have identified the immune cell that acts as the architect and ...

Kidney cells are continuously exposed to ischemic, metabolic, toxic, and immunological stressors. These insults activate a conserved repertoire of ...

The immune system relies on T lymphocytes to recognise and eradicate malignant cells. CD8+ T cells scan peptide fragments displayed on major histocompatibility complex class I molecules at the tumour ...

Investigators from Mass General Brigham have developed a way to promote antitumor immunity by hijacking cellular machinery within cancer cells. The study demonstrated that inducing cancer cells to ...

Phages, viruses that infect bacteria, could be genetically manipulated to destroy cancerous cells using the immunity we have acquired from vaccines ...

Much like humans generate mountains of garbage, our cells are constantly discarding proteins that are damaged or no longer needed. The cellular waste disposal system called the proteasome is best ...

T cells are positioned at the frontline of the body's immune system to fight infection, cancer, and autoimmune disease. While different subtypes of T cells exist, how these cells take their different ...

Company completes design and in-vitro validation of a single Smart mRNA that disguises cancer as multiple viral infections simultaneously to activate pre-existing T-cell immunity ...

WEHI scientists have uncovered a promising new way to enhance the effectiveness of vaccines by tapping into the potential of a specific type of immune cell, opening the door to long-lasting vaccines ...

Full-body defense does not always look the way textbooks say it should. In planarian flatworms, a newly identified cell type appears to protect the body by bursting apart, releasing a lethal chemical ...
