The Department of Pediatrics at Dr. Rajendra Prasad Government Medical College (DRPGMC), Tanda, marked the International Day of Immunology with an academic programme highlighting the growing ...
This new article publication from Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica B, discusses how the use of a radiation-based immunogenic vaccine combined with a macrophage “checkpoint inhibitor” can boost innate and ...
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 ...
In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* preprint server, researchers analyzed the viral genomes of 28 endemic viruses to study the evolution of the ability of viruses to evade the neutralizing ...
In a recent study published in Science Advances, researchers presented a deep learning framework, termed DeepAIR, to accurately predict adaptive immune receptor (AIR)-antigen binding by integrating ...
Our immune system is divided into two main branches: innate and adaptive. Innate immune cells act as a first line of defense, quickly responding to invaders, while adaptive immune cells take a longer ...
The human body’s defensive lineup is impressive—from made-to-order antibodies to natural-born killers. Here’s how it wards off sickness in every season. When pathogens invade our bodies—in the form of ...
