A team of immunologists at the University of Massachusetts Amherst has turned what we know about T-cells, one of the most important parts of the body's immune system, on its head, opening the door to ...
Microscopy images of antigen-inexperienced (‘naïve’) mouse CD8 T cells (green). A subset of these cells expresses Dapl1 protein (red), identifying a population committed to a memory stem-like lineage.
Background. Vaccine-induced memory B-cell (MBC) subsets have distinct roles in the establishment of protective immunity; MBCs expressing nonswitched immunoglobulin M (IgM+ MBCs) replenish the MBC pool ...
Our latest Focus Issue looks at what we’ve learnt over the past decade and what’s next for the field of trained immunity.
Uncover how memory T cells contribute to the recurrence of periodontal disease using cutting-edge immunology and single-cell technologies. This project explores how memory T cells contribute to the ...
Researchers are one step closer to making the T cell army stronger. In a recent study, researchers found that by manipulating one molecular signaling pathway in the T cells that participate in ...
Immunological memory - the ability to respond to a previously encountered antigen, or foreign substance, with greater speed and intensity on re-exposure is a hallmark of adaptive immunity. Innate ...
Background: An immune system is a system of biological structures and processes within an organism that protects against diseases by identifying and killing pathogens and tumor cells. Development of ...
