For her Ph.D. at VUB and KULeuven, Aarushi Caro created a kind of systematics for dendritic cells, a special group of immune cells in the fight against cancer. Until now, there was a lot of confusion ...

Dendritic cells (DCs) serve as pivotal sentinels of the immune system, bridging innate and adaptive responses by processing and presenting antigens to T cells. Their inherent versatility enables them ...

LMU researchers have shown that a particular type of immune cell acts more flexibly than previously thought - with potential for new therapeutic approaches. As part of the innate immune system, ...

Cancer immunotherapy is a strategy that turns the patient’s own immune cells into a “search-and-destroy” force that attacks the tumor’s cells. The “search” immune cells are the dendritic cells, which ...

Pelareorep treatment drives coordinated immune activation and tertiary lymphoid structure formation Translational data suggest potential to boost ...

Sepsis remains a major challenge in modern medicine, claiming millions of lives each year. For decades, clinical management has largely focused on suppressing excessive inflammation. Yet many patients ...

Research by RCSI University of Medicine and Health Sciences has provided new insights into the mechanism behind how our circadian 24-hour body clock influences our immune response to vaccines, ...

Researchers have shown that a particular type of immune cell acts more flexibly than previously thought -- with potential for new therapeutic approaches. LMU researchers have shown that a particular ...

A cluster of recent studies has sharpened the scientific picture of how T cells switch on, tracking the molecular signals ...
