A new review by Dr. Ruyuan Wang and an international team of researchers explores the complex interactions between the innate and adaptive immune systems, shedding light on regulatory mechanisms in ...
SARS-CoV-2 has an enzyme that can counteract a cell's innate defense mechanism against viruses, explaining why it is more infectious than the previous SARS and MERS-causing viruses. The discovery may ...

Our immune system is divided into two main branches: innate and adaptive. Innate immune cells act as a first line of defense, quickly responding to invaders, while adaptive immune cells take a longer ...
More and more routine vaccines are being linked to lower risks of dementia. Shots against seasonal flu, RSV, tetanus, ...
For decades, dogma dictated that the immune system consisted of two separate branches. Cells of the innate system respond rapidly to molecular patterns shared by a broad array of pathogens. Meanwhile, ...
Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have identified new properties of CD4-positive T cells in the human intestines and liver ...
The immune system orchestrates a multi-step response to protect the body from infections and other diseases. Specifically, ...
Chronological aging is a major risk factor for many neurodegenerative disorders affecting both the brain and the eye, including Alzheimer’s disease, ...
A section of Goodsell et al.’s magnificent “Integrative illustration for coronavirus outreach” highlighting the packaging of the viral genetic material (in pink) by the scaffold “nucleocapsid protein” ...
