A new study from the University of Gothenburg may help guide the development of better influenza vaccines. Memory cells in ...

The average human has about 1.8 trillion immune cells. These cells patrol the body for bacteria, viruses, cancers, and other ...

However, details of the intervening steps, as researchers have learned in the past 65 years, are quite complex — certain cells carry the flu antigen to the immune system, specific immune cells respond ...

Even when immune memory cells form in the lung after influenza infection, insufficient dietary iron leaves them less able to mount a strong antiviral response, revealing how nutrition can shape ...

Think learning and memory are all the job of the brain? You might want to think again, if the results of a recent study are to be believed. In a first, scientists at New York University (NYU) ...

The immune system is comprised of two separate active arms of immunity to provide robust protection against disease. The two separate systems of immunity include the innate and adaptive immune ...

A growing body of research suggests astrocytes, star-shaped brain cells once dismissed as support players, may lead the way ...

In wound healing, immune response, and cancer metastasis, cells migrate through the body – often squeezing through narrow, confined spaces. Together with experimental collaborators, Professor David ...
