Scientists have created a new atlas of plant cells during immune response, in turn discovering a new rare cell state, called Primary IMmunE Responder (PRIMER), that acts as an immune response hub ...

The PRIMER cells expressed a new transcription factor—a type of protein that regulates gene expression—called GT-3a, which is likely an important upstream alarm for alerting other cells to an ...

A new discovery in blood immune cells has put researchers one step closer to identifying a blood biomarker that would allow doctors to personalize treatments for Parkinson's disease. In a multi ...

To create one of the most advanced immunotherapies in cancer, CAR-T cell therapies, scientists engineer immune T cells to carry a synthetic protein on their surfaces. This protein, called the ...

Their study in mice found that during periods of low energy— such as intermittent fasting—ILC2 immune cells step in to regulate blood sugar levels, acting as a “postman” in a previously ...

The liver and pancreas are the main actors in glucose metabolism, but not the only ones. Muscles, adipose tissue and the brain play different roles. However, the prize for the best new actor in ...
