When killer T cells of our immune system divide, they normally undergo asymmetric cell division (ACD): Each daughter cell ...

Scientists have discovered that T cell receptors activate through a hidden spring-like motion that had never been seen before ...

Researchers found a way to boost aging immune systems by turning the liver into a temporary source of immune support signals ...

When a transplanted organ arrives, it’s like a controlled burn that risks becoming a wildfire. The body’s innate immune system senses damage signals, like heat shock proteins (HSP70), and sounds the ...

Findings from St. Jude Children's Research Hospital demonstrate that virtual memory T cells, a specialized group of immune cells, provide nonspecific immunity for infants early in life. The work stems ...

One of the most exciting advances in cancer treatments in the past decade is the development of T cell immunotherapies, in which a patient's own immune system is trained to recognize and attack ...

It develops from the abnormal multiplication of T cells, or T-lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell essential for immune system function. The specific treatment course and prognosis for T-cell ...

Basophils trigger a cytokine cascade that improves antitumor immunity in mice, offering potential targets for cancer immunotherapy. “The results remind us: Don’t forget the basophil,” said study ...
