A new study tracking thousands of B cells across more than 100 germinal centers in mice reveals how the system consistently ...

Medical researchers have used animals, particularly mice, to mimic disease and study biological phenomena. The origin of mice as a standard model system for scientific research can extend back to the ...

Cancer cells that disseminate from a tumor can enter a period of dormancy that may persist from months to decades before metastasis. Efforts to improve adjuvant therapy to remove residual cancer cells ...

Irisin, a hormone released during exercise, appears to directly shield neurons from damage in a mouse model of multiple ...

The miniature models could exponentially accelerate vaccine development, cancer treatment research, and improved health outcomes across a spectrum of diseases. The left image shows the immune organ-on ...

Not only does our body change with age, but so does our immune system. A recent study led by the Center for Individualized Infection Medicine (CiiM) shows exactly how immune cells age and how ...

Scientists with the Fralin Biomedical Research Institute at VTC have created an engineered model of the supportive tissue found within a lymph node to study human health. Working with scientists at ...

Study reveals how our immune system transforms across a lifetime—unlocking the potential for predicting disease risk and optimizing health before symptoms appear. Resource: Integrating single-cell RNA ...

Scientists at Scripps Research have identified a specific chemical modification on the STING protein that appears to lock ...

Trillions of microorganisms live in the human gut, collectively forming the gut microbiome. They support important bodily ...
