Understanding gut inflammation using caterpillars
Recently, researchers began working to develop non-mammalian alternatives that could reduce the number of rodents used in biomedical research and one that could also lower costs and accelerate results. These researchers decided to make use of caterpillars...
Vaccines and respiratory viruses
Vaccinations that offer long-lasting protection against influenza, coronaviruses, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) have been challenging to create; recent research has now investigated the problems and outlined alternatives to better vaccines...
Insights into the mechanism lung cancers use to evade the immune system
In a recent study, a group of researchers revealed a protein that is frequently present in lung cancer cells at high levels and that regulates a crucial immunosuppressive pathway that enables lung tumours to avoid immune response...
Newly discovered IFN-γ role in Metabolic reprogramming to support Tumor Evasion
In a recent publication, Researcher have found a new role of IFN- γ in supporting Tumor cells to form a Suppressive Tumor Microenvironment (TME) via STAT3...
A vaccine for brain cancer?
In a recent study, scientists created live tumour cells using the genome editing technology CRISPR-Cas9, then modified them to secrete a substance that kills tumour cells...
COVID-19 vaccination may offer cancer protection
In a recent study, researchers have shown that recipients of the COVID-19 vaccine had a strong immune response, even in the presence of blood malignancy...
Novel therapy to reduce immune rejection of transplant cells
Researchers have just published a unique, possibly life-saving method that may stop antibodies from causing the immune system to reject designed therapeutic and transplant cells...
Why we lose our smell – COVID-19
In a recent study, researchers found a connection between a persistent immune attack on olfactory nerve cells and the failure of certain persons to recover their sense of smell following COVID-19...
Insights into the regulation of inflammation
In a recent publication, scientists made a big advancement in their knowledge of how inflammation is controlled...
