Microbial threats against human health are only growing. Luckily, researchers are developing new vaccines that are up to the ...

Innate immune sensors—known as pattern recognition receptors (PRRs)—detect specific molecular components of bacterial or ...

A team led by researchers at the University of Cologne has identified a protein called ANKIB1 that acts as a volume dial for the body’s frontline immune defenses, controlling how strongly cells ...

Research reveals that T cells from the adaptive immune system can manipulate the memory of innate immune cells. Previously, it was believed that the memory of innate immune cells operated ...

Sat, January 24, 2026 at 2:56 PM UTC The immune system is the body’s natural defense network that helps to keep you healthy from things like bacteria, viruses, and parasites. It’s a complex network of ...

Researchers have discovered that mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines have a persistent effect on the innate immune system. These mechanisms may help the human body to better protect itself against potential ...

An experimental treatment protects mice from COVID-19, flu, bacteria, and more.

The immune system can work in two ways: the innate immune system reacts to any foreign invaders that are identified by immune cells that look for such pathogens; but the acquired or adaptive immune ...

Study reveals how two proteins cooperate in a key early step of antiviral detection, as reported by researchers at Science ...

Blyth is the founder and former CEO of LIfT BioSciences, a company developing neutrophil-based immunotherapies designed to ...

The innate immune response constitutes the body’s first line of defence against pathogens, utilising a network of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) and signalling molecules to detect and neutralise ...

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 ...
