Researchers have used an experimental mRNA therapy to make old immune cells in mice behave as if they were young again, ...

A trio of mRNA molecules could help guard against the harmful effects of aging on immune cells, a study in mice finds. A new ...

The immune system provides constant surveillance for the body, aiming to spot and eliminate disease-causing microbes or ...

New research from the University of Minnesota Medical School offers a new view of how the immune system responds to organ ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
