RNA is usually portrayed as a molecule that works deep inside the cell, helping to turn genetic information into proteins.

As people age, their immune system function declines. T cell populations become smaller and can't react to pathogens as ...

Testing in mice suggests that rejuvenating T cells could make vaccines and some cancer therapies more effective.

PFAS are found in multiple everyday products, such as cosmetics, outdoor clothing and coated pans. This is because of their special properties. They are heat-resistant, repel water and grease and are ...

Metabolic reprogramming in the tumor microenvironment shapes immune function and therapy resistance, offering insights into ...

Engineered dendritic cells capture tumor EVs, enhancing antigen presentation and T cell activation to boost cancer immunotherapy in preclinical models.

A team has identified a previously unknown phase of the immune response. The results challenge long-standing assumptions about the process called 'T-cell priming'. These new insights have significant ...

RNA vaccines, such as those used against COVID-19, are effective at generating antibody responses. These antibodies are ...

Alveolar macrophages are immune cells that live in the tiny air sacs of the lungs. Under normal conditions, these cells act ...

Preoperative radiation improved T-cell infiltration among patients with hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast ...
