In a bid to understand why mosquitoes may be more attracted to one human than another, Johns Hopkins Medicine researchers say they have mapped specialized receptors on the insects' nerve cells ...

Researchers found a small, specialized group of nerve cells in the hypothalamus that influence hunger and weight gain. These ...

The research team demonstrated that innate immune cells called Natural Killer (NK) cells that express CD8a on the cell ...

A research group has identified the so-called PNOC/NPY nerve cells in the brains of mice. When activated, these cells ...

Manufacturing CAR T cells in the laboratory is expensive and time-consuming. An in vivo approach could get the powerful ...

Nerve cells in the hypothalamus: These neurons influence eating behavior and weight gain. Hormone-controlled: These nerve ...

Scientists discovered a specific cluster of PNOC/NPY neurons that regulate food intake and body weight in mice, also present ...

T cells are a critical part of the adaptive immune system that respond to pathogens, tumors, or play a key role in autoimmune diseases. A T cell recognizes potential targets through its T cell ...

Credit: Lab on a Chip (2023). DOI: 10.1039/D3LC00400G To study cell interaction with fluids and other cells, the cell or cells need to be trapped, or held in a specific place. For T cell screening ...

This study, published in Cell, demonstrates that engineering T-cells to express both a Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) and a T-cell Receptor (TCR) can improve their ability to distinguish between ...

While T cells play a critical role in the immune system by protecting our body against infection and cancer, regulation of T cell activity is necessary to prevent excessive inflammation and damage to ...
