The innate immune system serves as the body's first line of defence, rapidly detecting and responding to external pathogens and internal damage. Recent advances in the field have highlighted the ...

Innate immune sensors—known as pattern recognition receptors (PRRs)—detect specific molecular components of bacterial or viral intruders. The PRRs forward the signals which results in the production ...

The immune system has two separate responses, which are orchestrated to optimize protection against pathogens. The first response is known as innate immuni | Immunology ...

Innate lymphoid cells, which curiously behave like T cells even though they don’t recognize specific antigens, show promise as a potential cancer therapeutic. In the years that followed, other groups ...

From your digestive system to sleep - here are the overlooked signals which indicate that it could be struggling ...

A team led by researchers at the University of Cologne has identified a protein called ANKIB1 that acts as a volume dial for the body’s frontline immune defenses, controlling how strongly cells ...

Cancer immunotherapies, including cancer vaccines, harness and amplify the immune system’s natural ability to detect and attack cancer cells. In this illustration, immune T cells (pink) attach to a ...
