Scientists have found a mechanism in the immune systems of mice that can lead to the development of autoimmune disease when turned off. The findings shed light on the processes that lead to the ...
A study by the research team of Prof. Geert van Loo (VIB-UGent Center for Inflammation Research) has unraveled a critical molecular mechanism behind autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as ...
The mammalian immune system has an extraordinary potential for making receptors that sense and neutralize any chemical entity entering the body. Inevitably, some of these receptors recognize ...
The ability of a human body to resist pathogenic factors is under control of immune cells, the most important of which are lymphocytes. The first subtype called effector lymphocytes, contacts with ...
The unique role of citrullination in osteoclast differentiation and ACPA-induced osteoclast activation might explain important features of the gradual development of rheumatoid arthritis, including ...
Scientists at the Department of Infection and Immunity of the Luxembourg Institute of Health (LIH) revealed a novel mechanism through which the immune system can control autoimmunity and cancer. In ...
The T-cell branch of the immune system can respond to a virtually infinite variety of antigens, in part because it includes a very large repertoire of T-cell clones, each with a unique receptor for ...
NEW YORK, Sept. 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Breakthrough T1D (formerly JDRF), the Lupus Research Alliance, and the National Multiple Sclerosis Society today announce the recipients of the Common ...
