A newly identified protein pair may drive brain cell death in Alzheimer’s, offering a clearer explanation of how the disease progresses.

Memory T cell therapy improves infection clearance after transplant, with 60% remission and strong safety outcomes in early data.

The human brain holds a staggering number of connections, yet scientists have long struggled to explain how it stores so much information. A new study from MIT researchers suggests the answer may lie ...

However, details of the intervening steps, as researchers have learned in the past 65 years, are quite complex — certain cells carry the flu antigen to the immune system, specific immune cells respond ...

Memories can form outside of the brain, according to new research. Non-brain cells exposed to chemical pulses similar to the ones that brain cells are exposed to when presented with new information ...

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have created the first detailed map showing how genetic activity is controlled in ...

One of the most puzzling aspects of common chronic inflammatory skin diseases such as psoriasis is how they become chronic. What allows an ongoing condition to stay dormant for months or even years, ...

For decades, dogma dictated that the immune system consisted of two separate branches. Cells of the innate system respond rapidly to molecular patterns shared by a broad array of pathogens. Meanwhile, ...
