Researchers at the University of Virginia School of Medicine have identified a specific enzyme inside immune cells that keeps Toxoplasma gondii, one of the most common brain parasites on the planet, ...

Clonally expanded CD8+ T cells are key drivers of alopecia areata, mediating epithelial cell death and immune infiltration. JAK inhibitors are approved for AA treatment, but recurrence is common, ...

A new study identifies an extreme but effective way that brain immune cells can prevent the parasite Toxoplasma gondii from spreading: they kill themselves to eliminate the dangerous microbes they ...

Study uncovers a pathogenic subset of memory T-cells that promote tissue inflammation and highlights a potential target for treating nasal polyps and other inflammatory airway diseases. Study: ...

In a recent study published in Nature Methods, researchers developed "scAtlasVAE," a deep-learning model to integrate large-scale single-cell ribonucleic acid (RNA) sequencing (scRNA-seq) data, ...

Yale researchers have made an unexpected discovery—turncoat T cells that help a tumor evade other cancer-fighting immune T cells—in a study of patients living with advanced melanoma. The study is ...

New research suggests that Epstein-Barr virus may actively provoke the immune system in people with multiple sclerosis. Scientists found large buildups of virus-targeting immune cells in the nervous ...

Lung cancer cells are able to take advantage of a person’s immune system, specifically T cells, to protect the tumor, according to new research recently published in Cancer Immunology Research.

Victor Appay, PhD, explains how long-term ART slows immune aging, boosting HIV viral suppression and paving the way for ...
