Scientists have recently identified a new anatomical structure in the brain called SLYM, an abbreviation of Subarachnoidal LYmphatic-like Membrane, that acts as a barrier and…
Lupus is a chronic autoimmune disease in which the body’s immune system attacks its own healthy tissues and organs. This results in inflammation and damage…
Aspergillus is a type of fungus commonly found in soil and decaying organic matter. While some species of Aspergillus are benign, others can cause infections…
The findings have significant implications, including improving our understanding of viral resistance and the potential for designing therapies to treat infected individuals. Researchers at Trinity…
The research might aid in enhancing vaccine efficacy and battling a number of autoimmune diseases. The immune system’s ability to remember defeated disease-causing germs and…
The researchers have revealed the exact molecular structure of an IgM-type B cell receptor. Freiburg and Harvard University researchers have revealed the three-dimensional structure of…
The drug allows children to sleep through the night instead of scratching. More than half of the children treated saw a greater than 75% reduction…
The mechanism delays and, in some cases, prevents the natural aging of immune cells. The mechanism extends the life of the immune system. A multinational team…
The findings suggest that V-set domains evolved farther back in the evolutionary tree than previously believed. The tiny marine invertebrate’s genes shed new light on…
