New research suggests the skin does much more than detect damage or keep pathogens out. By tracing how skin cells respond to ...

The immune-boosting power of a fever is surprisingly ancient. Cold-blooded creatures like fish typically move to warmer environments to help fight infections. In one fish species, Nile tilapia, that ...

A new review by Dr. Ruyuan Wang and an international team of researchers explores the complex interactions between the innate and adaptive immune systems, shedding light on regulatory mechanisms in ...

A collaborative effort led by Professor Wanli Liu 's team at Tsinghua University has uncovered a sophisticated mechanism by which keratinocytes, the predominant cell type in the skin's epidermis, ...

Immuno-oncology is an evolving field of study on the role of the immune system in cancer initiation and growth. This introductory module describes the purpose of the human immune system, components of ...

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease characterized by the immune-mediated destruction of pancreatic B cells. While autoreactive T cells are key ...

In a recent study published in Science Advances, researchers presented a deep learning framework, termed DeepAIR, to accurately predict adaptive immune receptor (AIR)-antigen binding by integrating ...

In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* server, researchers examined how imprinted severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) humoral immunity drives convergent evolution in ...
