Immunoregulation in the brain – new insights
Exciting new research has shed light on how our brains adapt our behaviour in response to infections or injuries. The study has revealed the existence of a circuit within the brain that not only senses inflammation in the blood but also regulates the anti-inflammatory response across different brain regions...
Mitchondrial disorder linked to a weaker immune response
In a recent study, researchers showed that altered B cell function in children with mitochondrial disorders, leads to a weaker and less diverse antibody response to viral infections...
Allergen sensitization – insights into atopic dermatitis and other skin disorders
In a recent study, researchers investigated interleukin (IL)-31 and its role in the pathophysiology of atopic dermatitis through the maintainnance of an inflammatory state and pruritus...
Key discovery in our battle against HIV
In a recent study, researchers have made a significant discovery about memory CD4+ T lymphocytes, crucial players in our immune response, in the context of HIV infection...
MS, inflammation and the brain – new insights
In a recent study conducted in mice, researchers have gained new insights into understanding the mechanisms underlying brain damage in progressive multiple sclerosis (MS)...
How melanoma evades the immune system
In a recent study, researchers discovered the presence of NR2F6, a protein that aids tumours in evading the immune system...
B cells and PCOS
In a recent research paper, scientists investigated the impact of B cells on the development of PCOS, aiming to uncover potential new treatment approaches...
Single-cell RNA sequencing – new insights into cancer
In a recent study, researchers have described the evolution of the tumor microenvironment during the progression of gastric cancer...
New insights into inflammation
In a new study, researchers have gained insights into the steps leading to the production of IL-1 beta, a potent inflammatory protein signal released during various inflammatory reactions...
