Discovery of innate immune receptor "brake" Siglec-E offers a novel therapeutic target to prevent organ transplant rejection ...

The immune system can work in two ways: the innate immune system reacts to any foreign invaders that are identified by immune ...

The immune system protects people in two ways. Innate immunity protects us from birth against many bacteria and viruses, while adaptive immunity builds protection against individual pathogens after a ...

Bats are known as natural hosts for highly pathogenic viruses such as MERS- and SARS-related coronaviruses, as well as the ...

Bats are known as natural hosts for highly pathogenic viruses such as MERS- and SARS-related coronaviruses, as well as the Marburg and Nipah viruses. In contrast to the severe and often fatal disease ...

The intestinal immune system is vital for maintaining mucosal homeostasis and mediating interactions between the host and its ...

CRP provides a link between the innate and adaptive immune systems by activation of complement and interaction with Fcγ receptors. Basal levels of CRP in the serum are influenced by polymorphisms ...

Researchers identified a natural 'brake' within the innate immune system: the inhibitory receptor Siglec-E (SigE) and its human counterparts, Siglec-7 and Siglec-9. This receptor helps prevent ...

Most vaccine development still focuses only on triggering the adaptive immune system. But by understanding the effect of vaccination on innate immune responses and trained immunity, we may be able ...
