A recent Nature Immunology study explores the cellular and molecular adaptations associated with human secondary lymphoid tissue in adults during viral infection. Lymphoid tissues play a vital role in ...

How do tertiary lymphoid structures influence immunotherapy outcomes in Merkel cell carcinoma? Spatial proteomics reveals key ...

Researchers have determined that type II innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s), a type of immune cell, can change its characteristics and functions after a cancer patient receives stem cells from a donor, ...

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic neurological disease characterized by nerve damage and consequent impairments in vision, ...

The lymphoid organ-chips are created by embedding peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) within an extracellular matrix (ECM), which can then be exposed to viral antigens to mimic the effects of ...

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, ...

“Allogeneic transplants can be very effective, and potentially lifesaving, but not all immune cells given to a recipient are reproduced from donor cells,” said Jonathan Serody, MD. “Innate type 2 ...

Scientists at the Pasteur Institute in France say they have developed artificial lymphoid organ-chips that recreate much of the human immune system’s response to booster vaccines. The technology, ...
