video: This spinning blue shape is the outer shell (glycoprotein) that shields lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) from immune system attack. And yet new research shows that an antibody (grey) ...

Northwestern Medicine scientists have discovered that an attenuated (weakened) virus can help eliminate cancer in mice. In addition, mice that were treated with this virus were more resistant to ...

· Virus raises ‘red flag’ on tumors so immune cells know to attack it CHICAGO --- Northwestern Medicine scientists have discovered that an attenuated (weakened) virus can help eliminate cancer in mice ...

Northwestern Medicine scientists have identified the cellular mechanisms that cause immune cells to differentiate and ultimately lose function during viral infection, findings that could improve ...

Oncolytic viruses are a potential therapeutic approach that uses viruses to selectively infect and kill cancer cells. In a new publication in Cell Reports Medicine, researchers from ...

The signaling molecules of the immune system should trigger a response only where necessary. To prevent a life-threatening spread to the rest of the body, connective tissue can absorb these molecules ...

Scientists have discovered that an attenuated (weakened) virus can help eliminate cancer in mice. In addition, mice that were treated with this virus were more resistant to developing tumors later in ...
