What keeps some immune systems youthful and effective in warding off age-related diseases? In a new paper published in Cellular & Molecular Immunology, USC Stem Cell scientist Rong Lu and her ...

The immune-boosting power of a fever is surprisingly ancient. Cold-blooded creatures like fish typically move to warmer environments to help fight infections. In one fish species, Nile tilapia, that ...

A new study shows human immune systems differ across populations, raising new questions for medicine and global drug research ...

Novel research led by Brazilian scientists describes the immune system's reactions in detail in the first living patient to ...

Researchers have unlocked a way to grow the immune system’s “conductors” from stem cells, bringing ready-made cancer-fighting therapies a big step closer. For the first time, scientists at the Univers ...

Fred Hutch Cancer Center researchers developing immunotherapies using engineered adaptive immune system cells have received over $4 million in research grants from the Washington Research Foundation ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Foods such as pomegranates, walnuts, almonds, and certain types of berries contain polyphenols that can help reverse the effects of immune system ...

Scientists generally agree that eukaryotes, the domain of life whose cells contain nuclei and that includes almost all multicellular organisms, originated from a process involving the symbiotic union ...

Cancer immunotherapies, including cancer vaccines, harness and amplify the immune system’s natural ability to detect and attack cancer cells. In this illustration, immune T cells (pink) attach to a ...
