This discovery sheds light on how tissue-resident memory CD8 T cells adapt to their location in the body, ensuring a coordinated and effective immune response and how microenvironments and ...
Additionally, the study shows that patients with a healthier, more active and diverse immune environment in the bone marrow are better able to support these cells and their cancer-fighting abilities.
In the Petri dish, for example, cancer cells have been found to feed their insatiable appetite for energy by stealing healthy mitochondria from immune cells called T cells 2. To learn more ...
The human immune system is like an army of specialized soldiers (immune cells) each with a unique role to play in fighting disease. In a new study published in Nature led by scientists at the ...
Researchers find that microglia function differently in males versus females, potentially having broad implications for how neurological diseases are studied. A collision happens. Someone is hurt ...
Different types of antibodies are produced by your immune system. These five antibodies help fight disease by detecting viruses, bacteria, and other pathogens (disease-causing microorganisms) and ...
Cell biology is the discipline of biological sciences that studies the structure, physiology, growth, reproduction and death of cells. Research in cell biology uses microscopic and molecular tools ...
SS-A/Ro proteins are made by cells in the body and can be found on cell surfaces and inside the cells. SS-B/La proteins are found inside cells of the body. These proteins normally bind to ribonucleic ...
The brain is an information-processing organ, and the brain cells that relay and handle all of this information are called neurons. With their special ability to produce and share electrical ...
