A single signaling pathway controls whether immune cells attack or befriend cells they encounter while patrolling our bodies, researchers at Stanford Medicine have found. Manipulating this pathway ...

A key protein, HOXD13, helps melanoma tumors grow and evade the immune system by boosting blood supply and blocking cancer-fighting T cells. Disabling it shrinks tumors and reopens the door for the ...

While modern life includes many conveniences, humans are still incessantly exposed to a variety of metabolic stresses we have ...

Scientists have discovered a way to supercharge the immune system’s T cells by blocking a protein called Ant2, forcing the cells to rewire how they generate energy. This shift makes them more powerful ...

Researchers have identified an unexpected mechanism that links age-related stress to the decline of blood-forming stem cells.

Researchers at NYU Langone Medical Center and its Perlmutter Cancer Center have uncovered a critical pathway by which pancreatic cancer cells turn off the immune system charged with attacking them.

Scientists assumed that one specific immune cell subtype was required for mRNA vaccination to activate the immune system. But ...

Duke Health researchers found a relationship between immune response and neurological behavior after studying mice with a specific gene mutation, which exhibited signs of ADHD in response to an ...

As we age, our ability to maintain healthy blood and a strong immune system gradually declines, largely because hematopoietic ...

Scientists generally agree that eukaryotes, the domain of life whose cells contain nuclei and that includes almost all multicellular organisms, originated from a process involving the symbiotic union ...
