LMU researchers have shown that a particular type of immune cell acts more flexibly than previously thought—with the potential for new therapeutic approaches.

Mitochondria are cell organelles surrounded by a double membrane. In addition to numerous essential functions in the ...

Scientists have pinpointed a crucial network of immune cells that allows humans to digest food safely without triggering ...

These “tolerogenic dendritic cells” enable food to pass through the body without triggering an immune reaction unless they malfunction to cause allergies. The study was published in Nature. Unraveling ...

In eight tumors where patients failed immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) treatment, Plinabulin + radiation + PD-1 inhibitors demonstrated ...

Mitochondria are cell organelles surrounded by a double membrane. In addition to numerous essential functions in the metabolism of the cell, they also play a key role in the integration of signals ...

Weizmann scientists uncover why our immune system lets us eat without harm, how it tolerates food—and why it sometimes fails. If you are allergic to peanuts, milk products, or strawberries, you ...

Single-cell transcriptomic landscape reveals cellular heterogeneity within the immune system in juvenile idiopathic arthritis ...
