Mammalian hosts coordinate various cell death pathways as part of the immune defense system against pathogens including ...

This primary infection results in the production of memory cells that remain in the bloodstream. A second exposure to the same pathogen causes the white blood cells to respond quickly in order to ...

Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) targets important cells of our immune system, making infected individuals more vulnerable to diseases and infections. Once inside human cells ...

In spite of seeming to be just 'bystander cells'that escape infection, many CD4 T cells are killed by the HIV virus, the reason for which researchers seem to have discovered at last. In spite of ...

and the University of California San Diego (UC San Diego), have announced that their collaboration has resulted in a new workflow for single cell sequencing, which reduces the cost of sample ...

Researchers have uncovered a previously unknown mechanism that regulates the immune response against parasites. During a parasitic infection, specific immune cells, known as virtual memory T cells ...

These receptors allow T cells to sense and respond to diverse types of infection. Genome-wide transcriptomics analysis of IFNγ-producing or IL-17A-producing γδ T cell subpopulations reveals ...

While infection of neurons is the hallmark of bona fide neurotropic viruses such as rabies and some herpesviruses, the possibility that viruses such as SARS-CoV-2 could infect neurons or glial cells ...

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a vital treatment for both malignant and non-malignant disorders in pediatric patients.
