Nanoparticles introduced into the bloodstream encounter the immune complement system, a proteolytic cascade that bridges innate surveillance and adaptive responses. Complement activation can occur via ...

An early and effective immune response is crucial for resolving viral infections and preventing post-infectious complications. The complement system, a pivotal element of antiviral immunity, is a ...

A team has identified a previously unknown phase of the immune response. The results challenge long-standing assumptions about the process called 'T-cell priming'. These new insights have significant ...

The story of Q32 Bio, a company that develops therapeutics for inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, started two decades ago. That's when V. Michael Holers, MD, a University of Colorado School of ...

Scientists have discovered novel immune responses that help explain how some individuals avoid getting COVID-19. Using single-cell sequencing, researchers studied immune responses against SARS-CoV-2 ...

Chronological aging is a major risk factor for many neurodegenerative disorders affecting both the brain and the eye, including Alzheimer’s disease, ...

The immune system is a complex response of various cells that detect and elicit mechanisms to eliminate disease. This orchestrated response in healthy individuals overcomes infections and foreign ...
