A new study led by Pierre Close's team (GIGA, Laboratory of Cancer Signaling, and WELRI Investigator) reveals how subtly ...

Innate immune sensors—known as pattern recognition receptors (PRRs)—detect specific molecular components of bacterial or ...

Inherited diseases of metabolism and immunity have more in common than previously recognized, according to a new study. The findings point to a new set of metabolic genes that are important for the ...

This is your immune system, and it consists of an intricate combination of cells and proteins able to spot and destroy ...

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 ...

A groundbreaking study has revealed a surprising biochemical connection between plant immune responses and human neurological health. Researchers have discovered that the metabolic pathways regulating ...

Scientists have pinpointed a small molecule that appears to reverse key signs of immune aging in laboratory models, raising the prospect of drugs that could keep our defenses against infection ...

A recent integrative analysis of single-cell sequencing and single-cell spatial mapping of lymph node metastasis in breast cancer reveals novel mechanisms of the metabolic-immune interaction that ...

Scientists from Duke-NUS Medical School, in collaboration with researchers in Nepal, have found that waning immunity to Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) may increase the risk of more severe dengue ...

A few years ago, Caetano Reis e Sousa, an immunologist at The Francis Crick Institute, and his team were investigating how the immune system detects tissue damage. They were specifically exploring the ...

Berly McCoy and Regina Barber of Short Wave talk about a hawk's clever hunting strategy, contacts that allow wearers to see infrared light, and how immunity varies during the day. It's time for our ...
