Professor Kenji Osafune (Department of Cell Growth and Differentiation) and his team of researchers have devised an effective ...

In a growing global trend, bacteria are evolving new ways to maneuver around medical treatments for a variety of infections.

A discovery published in Nature Immunology has shed light on why the immune system is less aggressive toward self-antigens, ...

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 ...

Antibiotic-resistant bacteria is a serious public health threat. Understanding the biology of these bacteria--such as how they synthesise their protective capsules--is essential for developing new ...

You can book a free NHS spring COVID-19 vaccine. This is because your NHS record suggests you may have a weakened immune system. We’ll need to confirm this before you get the vaccine. You should book ...

Aging is a complex biological process impacting various organs and systems, prominently affecting the immune system through ...

We characterized back-splicing cis- and trans-elements, and found viral circRNAs resistant to spliceosome perturbation and lacking canonical splice donor-acceptors. Subsequent loss-of-function studies ...

That's why it's always a good idea to think about how you can boost your immune system as well as your overall health with vitamins and nutrients like vitamin D. Though sunlight is typically our ...

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 ...

To thrive in this environment, organizations are increasingly turning to digital immune systems (DIS) to bolster their cybersecurity resilience. Much like a biological immune system, a digital immune ...

In fact, SARS-CoV-2 has been evolving the ability to evade the immune system about twice as fast as the fastest-evolving flu virus, punctuated by several large evolutionary jumps, scientists say. Most ...
