In the last study published in the journal NutrientsScientists have examined the impact of berry consumption in an early period of life on allergy symptoms, Intestinal microbiotaand immune biomarkers. The complementary nutrition period is a critical time frame for shaping the development of infant resistance, diet and intestinal microflora. Current recommendations suggest the introduction of […]
For our immune system, naked RNA is a sign of viral or bacterial invasion and must be attacked. But RNA also has our own cells. To repel trouble, our cells wear RNA in sugars, Vijay Rathinam and colleagues with the Uconn School of Medicine and Ryan Flynn in the Hospital report for children in Boston […]
Scientists from the University of Kyoto found that the immune molecule appearing only in the primary, called IGFL2, plays a key role in the regulation of inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). IGFL2 is produced by a subset of immune cells in patients with RA and acts as fuel on fire: it activates more immune cells, […]
Immune control points are regulatory proteins that prevent the immune system from attacking healthy tissues. Some cancer cells use these checkpoints to avoid detection of immunity. Immunological therapy blockage of control points (ICB), which uses antibodies to block these deceptive signals, can free the immune system to destroy cancer. However, the main challenge in oncology […]
The immune systems of patients with cancer are highly disturbed, and people who have a larger number of immune cells in the blood, have a better survival rate, finds a new study using a pioneering technique developed by scientists from UCL and Francis Crick Institute. Tool described in Nature GeneticsIt is called immune lymphocyte estimation […]
