Researchers show that the immune system can recognize and control the latent stage of the parasite Toxoplasma gondii, a finding that can inform the study of latency in other infections of the nervous ...

The field of immunology has recently seen a surge of interest in the roles of circular RNAs (circRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) ...

Insect immune priming refers to the phenomenon whereby an initial exposure to a pathogen enhances the innate immune response upon subsequent encounters. Unlike the adaptive immunity of vertebrates, ...

Drawing from research on sepsis and complement biology, they developed the monoclonal antibody vilobelimab to block overactive inflammatory responses in patients with severe inflammatory diseases ...

Researchers have discovered that mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines have a persistent effect on the innate immune system. These mechanisms may help the human body to better protect itself against potential ...

Fighting off pathogens is a tour de force that must happen with speed and precision. A team of researchers at CeMM and MedUni Vienna led by Christoph Bock and Matthias Farlik has investigated how ...

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / June 28, 2023 / Edesa Biotech, Inc. (NASDAQ:EDSA), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on inflammatory and immune-related diseases, announced positive ...

The immune system serves as the body’s sophisticated defense network, constantly working to protect against harmful pathogens. Understanding how to strengthen this natural shield is crucial for ...

Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is a condition that can develop as a severe complication of pneumonia, sepsis, or trauma resulting in life-threatening lung injury with fluid leakage into ...

Most humans have long-lived infections in various tissues—including in the nervous system—that typically do not result in disease. The microbes associated with these infections enter a latent stage ...
