Researchers at the Yale School of Medicine have discovered that hunger-spiking neurons could help control autoimmune diseases, unmasking a previously unsuspected role of hypothalamic feeding…
A newly published study reports on fourteen adult patients in long-term functional remission of HIV seven years after being taken off early antiretroviral treatment. The…
In a newly published study, Yale University researchers detail how they engineered a system that tricks bacteria to deliver a safer vaccine, which could be…
In a new study, Yale researchers used biodegradable nanoparticles called nanogels to deliver relatively low drug doses to mice with lupus, increasing the median survival…
A report presented at the 20th Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections describes how an HIV-infected infant underwent remission after receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART) within…
A new study from UCLA suggests that certain bacteria can pretend to be viruses when infecting humans, allowing them to hijack the body’s immune response…
In a newly published study, researchers at Tufts University School of Medicine provide evidence that bacteriophage can acquire a functional and adaptive immune system, possibly…
UCLA-led researchers have developed a “pill” that uses two enzymes to mimic the action of the human liver in fighting alcohol intoxication. In a discovery…
In a newly published study, scientists have shown that an oxysterol called 25-hydroxycholesterol (25HC) suppresses HIV growth in vivo. A team of researchers led by…
Researchers at UCLA have shown that body-fat responses to high-fat, high-sugar diets have a very strong genetic component and have identified several genetic factors potentially…
Researchers at the Université Laval have shown that the molecule MPL (monophosphoryl lipid A) can eliminate up to 80% of the senile plaques associated with…
Scientists report that induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS) have a similar immune response in mice as embryonic stem cells (ES). The scientists published their findings…
