New research findings can potentially support the development of more effective vaccines and therapeutics, ultimately increasing immunological memory to combat influenza and other respiratory infections….
Charité study tracks patients with pronounced fatigue over 20 months. A new study has found that many people with post-COVID syndrome who suffer from fatigue…
The findings could potentially improve the success rate of cancer drug development. Approximately 90% of drugs don’t reach the market, highlighting the clear need for…
Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, the range of clinical outcomes for individuals infected with SARS-CoV-2 varied widely, from showing no symptoms to succumbing to the disease….
Childhood neglect or abuse can trigger profound stress, which in turn can alter neural pathways and functions as the brain develops. Such changes can predispose…
Two new studies led by researchers at Columbia University explains why babies get so many common respiratory infections and identifies a specialized cluster of immune…
How does the brain alter our behavior in response to an infection or injury? A multidisciplinary team of scientists from the Institut Pasteur, CNRS, and…
University of Virginia School of Medicine researchers have discovered a key driver of chronic inflammation that accelerates aging. That finding could let us slow the clock to live longer,…
Eosiniphilic esophagitis was not identified as a disease until the 1990s. Decades later, a treatment may have been discovered. A new study from Tulane University has identified…
Rare diseases are often caused by defects in genetic material. Children who inherit a single faulty gene from one parent are typically asymptomatic “carriers” –…
Researchers have discovered how short-lived dendritic cells of the immune system form three-dimensional networks, using blood vessels as guides. These networks, regulated by local cytokines,…
Two years ago, as COVID-19 vaccines first started to be rolled out, there was a surge in myocarditis cases, a condition characterized by inflammation of…
Scientists from the Karolinska Institute in Sweden have uncovered further evidence regarding the Epstein-Barr virus’s role in initiating or escalating multiple sclerosis. The study, published…
By engineering mice lacking a key signaling molecule, researchers have shed light on how the immune system causes problems in elderly people. The lack of…
New insights into how blood makes the brain’s immune cells toxic point to new therapeutic strategies for Alzheimer’s disease and multiple sclerosis. In individuals suffering…
Multinational study identifies immune resilience as a factor that influences life span, HIV/AIDS, flu, sepsis mortality, recurrent skin cancer, and COVID-19 mortality. Researchers from The…
A recent study from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai suggests that fasting could negatively affect immune cells, potentially increasing the risk of…
