Plant immunity is largely initiated at the cellular level, with each cell capable of autonomous detection and response, while ...

Researchers developed a micro-volume assay that quantifies T-cell responses and antibodies from fingertip blood, offering a ...

Investigators from Mass General Brigham have developed a way to promote antitumor immunity by hijacking cellular machinery within cancer cells. The study demonstrated that inducing cancer cells to ...

T cell activation—the process by which these key immune defenders recognize threats and mobilize against them—depends on ...

Much like humans generate mountains of garbage, our cells are constantly discarding proteins that are damaged or no longer needed. The cellular waste disposal system called the proteasome is best ...

The Hepatitis B virus is a leading cause of liver-related morbidity and mortality, particularly through chronic hepatitis B (CHB), which can progress to cirrhosis and liver cancer. While most adults ...

Effective anti-tumor immunity is not only defined by which immune cells are present in a tumor, but also by how they are organized in space. Across cancer ...

Researchers at the University of Michigan have revealed that cells use a previously unknown feat of molecular craftsmanship ...

A researcher at the Hackensack Meridian Center for Discovery and Innovation (CDI) and physician-scientist colleagues from Hackensack Meridian Health have shown how a critical pathway is fundamental to ...

Rooted in place, plants have little ability to flee dangerous situations. Additionally, their lack of a dedicated immune system means that, to combat an infection, every cell needs to be able to mount ...
