By fusing antigen proteins into an anchor protein, a specific disease could be targeted without the need to purify the antigen.
Researchers suggest patients who develop mild COVID-19 may not be able to fight reinfection very effectively because their CD8+ T cells show signs of exhaustion.
The team demonstrated that expression of Bach2 protein and reduced mTORC1 activity is necessary for germinal B cells to become memory B cells.
In this NGS In-Depth Focus: how next-generation sequencing (NGS) enables rapid detection of viruses and a novel NGS platform advancing genomics research.
The global network of centers will investigate where pathogens emerge and how they adapt to cause disease in humans, in the hopes of increasing our preparedness for future disease outbreaks.
The team found microglia and CD8 T cells were vital to protecting neurons from vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) infection and suggest loss of taste and smell in COVID-19 could be due to a certain mechanism of infection.
Amid the rush to develop an effective vaccine against COVID-19, antibody therapy has become a major strategy to ameliorate and treat cases of severe disease. Armed with the capacity to neutralise pathogens and orchestrate the immune system, promising antibody candidates for multiple viral indications, including HIV, continue to emerge. Technology…
Researchers demonstrate that a subpopulation of circulating white blood cells can act as an early indicator of vaccine efficacy, with potential implications for COVID-19 drug development.
With the global ageing population at risk of death from influenza, what is pharma doing to develop more effective vaccines to combat the virus?
Scientists have created an artificial protein able to recognise and bind cell surface carbohydrates with high affinity and selectivity.
Researchers have studied how the human body responds to viral infection when already infected by fungi, offering insights into the immune system.
Researchers reveal importance of IL-15 in T cell autophagy in the liver, presenting a potential strategy to enhance immunotherapies.
Researchers have identified that the RNA molecule nc886 begins a series of events that leads to the destruction of viruses...
