T cells and type 1 diabetes prevention
In a recent paper, researchers have described a promising approach to identify individuals at risk of developing type 1 diabetes, a severe autoimmune disease, by analyzing T cells in the blood...
The potential of T cell activation markers for TB diagnostic development
In a recent paper, researchers tested the diagnostic capability of a simplified T cell activation markers (TAM)-based TB assay that takes real-time measurements from a millimetre of blood...
The landscape of human cornea – immune cells
In a recent study, researchers have unveiled the immune cell landscape of a healthy human cornea, revolutionizing our understanding of its protective mechanisms against pathogens and diseases...
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...
