Researchers have identified how to encourage tumors to build their own immune hubs—structures that look and function like ...

A “complete eradication” of B cells with chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy is responsible for the long-term, drug-free remission from autoimmune diseases observed after treatment, according to ...

Researchers have uncovered a critical, previously underappreciated role for B cells in vaccine protection. Best known for producing antibodies, B cells also guide other immune cells, specifically CD8 ...

Contrary to public concerns, receiving frequent COVID-19 booster vaccinations will not weaken the immune system, providing reassurance to vulnerable groups facing new variants. Study: No evidence of ...

Researchers found that zeaxanthin, long associated with eye health, may also boost the body’s immune response against cancer. In a recent study, scientists at the University of Chicago found that ...

Scientists have uncovered a sweet twist in the body’s fight against cancer. Glucose, best known as the fuel that powers our cells, also helps immune cells called T cells communicate and organize their ...

Sickle cell disease (SCD) altered CD8+ T-cell chromatin architecture, triggering ferroptosis and weakening antitumor immunity. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) treatment restored chromatin interactions and ...

However, details of the intervening steps, as researchers have learned in the past 65 years, are quite complex — certain cells carry the flu antigen to the immune system, specific immune cells respond ...

The body has an intricate system to defend against infections where each type of immune cell plays a distinct role. Now, a study led by researchers from the Penn State College of Medicine has ...
