Scientists in the Blavatnik Institute at Harvard Medical School and MIT have created a new family of tools that, for the ...

Researchers from the University of California, Los Angeles, have discovered that immune cells known as macrophages remain poised to fight repeat infections due to the persistent presence of signaling ...

A UCLA study found that macrophages rely on interferon gamma signaling from past infections to preserve innate defenses.

Northwestern Medicine scientists have identified the cellular mechanisms that cause immune cells to differentiate and ...

Cell signaling is crucial for cells to communicate and function correctly. Disruptions in these pathways, caused by genetic mutations or environmental factors, can lead to uncontrolled cell growth, ...

Tiny amounts of signaling molecules hang around on macrophages to pump up responses to repeated threats, offering a target to treat autoimmune conditions.

Immunometabolism has emerged as a central hub linking infection, inflammation, cell death, and cancer. The metabolic state of cells profoundly shapes their ...

A quiet problem has followed cancer immunotherapy for years. The immune system can be taught to fight, then it fades.

Diamond quantum nanoprobes detect immune cell inflammation by sensing electric charge shifts, opening a new path for real-time single-cell monitoring in immunology and cancer research.

Non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, obesity, and metabolic syndrome are rising globally, while infectious diseases, ...
