A new technology has been developed to suppress immune rejection, the biggest challenge in organ transplantation, without ...

Scientists identified a gene switch that helps immune cells fully mature, allowing them to clean up tissues and keep our organs healthy.

Researchers at the University of Liège have identified a key genetic regulator that enables macrophages to reach full ...

In a recent study posted to the medRxiv* preprint server, researchers estimated the humoral immunity imparted by the two/three doses of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) ...

Organ transplants save lives, but unfortunately rejection is a key hurdle. Now scientists have demonstrated a potential new way to prime a recipient’s immune system to accept a transplanted organ, by ...

Scientists hoping to discover better ways to boost immune function — which could lengthen our healthspan and protect immunocompromised patients — may have a new target, according to findings published ...

A single genetic “switch” may be the secret to how the body’s cleanup crew grows up and keeps our organs running smoothly.

Our immune system relies on T cells to fight infections. But T cells don't just show up and react—first, they train, get a ...

Dr. Leondo Ferreira of the Medical University of South Carolina takes patient samples obtained from University Hospital La Paz in Madrid, Spain from a liquid nitrogen tank. A Medical University of ...

Research reveals that T cells from the adaptive immune system can manipulate the memory of innate immune cells. Previously, it was believed that the memory of innate immune cells operated ...
