Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease characterized by the immune-mediated destruction of pancreatic B cells. While autoreactive T cells are key ...

A study shows dietary fat balance can alter the lipid composition of T cells, influencing their survival, antibody support, ...

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 ...

A new study provides important insights into how T-cells, a type of immune cell, become activated. Researchers employed a technique called Bayesian metamodeling, which combines data from different ...

The immune system relies on complex interactions between cells to orchestrate effective responses against pathogens and tumours. Among these, T cells play a pivotal role through their ability to ...

Findings from St. Jude Children's Research Hospital demonstrate that virtual memory T cells, a specialized group of immune cells, provide nonspecific immunity for infants early in life. The work stems ...

The types of fats we consume directly impacts the survival and strength of the body's immune cells and ability to fight disease, researchers have found.

The NF-κB-inducing kinase (NIK), a molecule pivotal for immune system development and function, shows significant yet complex potential as a therapeutic target. The comprehensive review, published by ...

Injecting viral peptides systemically into mice activated immune cells that then targeted pancreatic tumors, opening avenues to more accessible cancer therapy.
