Scientists have discovered that T cell receptors activate through a hidden spring-like motion that had never been seen before ...

As people age, their immune system function declines. T cell populations become smaller and can't react to pathogens as quickly, making people more susceptible to a variety of infections.

In recent years, the field of immunology has increasingly focused on the role of glycolipids and sphingolipids in the differentiation and function of innate immune cells, such as macrophages, ...

The field of immunology of ageing is rapidly evolving, with T cells playing a pivotal role in maintaining immune competence and overall organismal ...

The Golgi apparatus modifies, sorts and packages proteins to be sent to their final destinations, whether that's within or outside of the cell. It's a core function, but little studied in the setting ...

Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have characterized a hidden intermediate state at the center of Src ...

Researchers investigating ways to reduce exhaustion in cancer-fighting T-cells found that the Golgi apparatus can be used as a simple marker -- more Golgi means a more robust cell. The Golgi apparatus ...

Contrary to public concerns, receiving frequent COVID-19 booster vaccinations will not weaken the immune system, providing reassurance to vulnerable groups facing new variants. Study: No evidence of ...

Immune cells work to fight infection and other diseases. Different subsets work together to elicit a healthy immune response; ...
