As the immune system weakens with age, scientists have found a way to restore some of its lost strength. By delivering mRNA ...

Researchers at MIT have unveiled a way to coax an aging immune system into acting young again, using the same kind of mRNA ...

A Medical University of South Carolina team reports in Frontiers in Immunology that it has engineered a new type of genetically modified immune cell that can precisely target and neutralize ...

A new study could help solve a long-standing mystery into why a key immune organ in our bodies shrinks and loses its function as we get older. A WEHI study could help solve a long-standing mystery ...

Organ transplants save lives, but unfortunately rejection is a key hurdle. Now scientists have demonstrated a potential new way to prime a recipient’s immune system to accept a transplanted organ, by ...

Scientists hoping to discover better ways to boost immune function — which could lengthen our healthspan and protect immunocompromised patients — may have a new target, according to findings published ...

Dr. Vadim Jucaud's lab at the Terasaki Institute has introduced a new organ-on-a-chip platform that recapitulates age-dependent immune responses, offering a more accurate testing bed for evaluating ...

Background. Solid organ transplant recipients (SOTRs) are predisposed to infection due to the need for lifelong immunosuppression, although tools to measure the overall degree of immunosuppression are ...

Dr. Leondo Ferreira of the Medical University of South Carolina takes patient samples obtained from University Hospital La Paz in Madrid, Spain from a liquid nitrogen tank. A Medical University of ...

In a recent review published in Pathogens, researchers discussed studies that explored T-cell immunity induced by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and coronavirus ...
