Silencing mRNA expression in dendritic cells did not impair T‑cell priming, including for SARS‑CoV‑2 antigens, suggesting that cross‑presentation by other cell types is sufficient to initiate immunity ...

In a paradigm-breaking study, researchers have discovered a novel way the immune system, specifically T cells, attack their target cells, reshaping long-held assumptions in immunology and ...

Immune cell-derived neurotransmitters act in autocrine and paracrine modes to regulate tissue homeostasis and modulate disease progression in autoimmune disorders, cancer progression and infectious ...

The immune system is a complex response of various cells that detect and elicit mechanisms to eliminate disease. This ...
