A team of biomolecular engineers, pathologists, and internal medicine specialists at the University of Texas Medical Branch, ...

Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) is a known cause of meningoencephalitis, typically in immunocompromised inpatients. We report a ...

Different types of antibodies are produced by your immune system. These five antibodies help fight disease by detecting viruses, bacteria, and other pathogens (disease-causing microorganisms) and ...

Anti-SS-A and anti-SS-B are autoantibodies (antibodies that mistakenly attack the body's own tissue). Elevated levels of these autoantibodies are strongly associated with Sjögren’s disease, in which ...

The whole-cell lysates (WCLs) from the indicated cells treated as described in (A) were analyzed by immunoblotting with the indicated antibodies. (C) Bafilomycin A1 (BA1) restored Wnt5a-induced FZD5 ...

While Venn diagrams may not have solved any long-standing open problems, surely these interlocking rings deserve more credit. Their compact representation of group relationships explains their ...

However, applying this approach to antibodies has proven more challenging, primarily due to the high degree of variability inherent in these proteins. To overcome that limitation, MIT researchers have ...

Antibodies that bind to a previously untargeted portion of the malaria parasite could lead to new monoclonal antibody treatments and vaccines for malaria. A novel class of antibodies that binds to ...

One way the immune system protects the body from germs and other foreign substances is by making large numbers of antibodies. An antibody is a protein that sticks to a specific protein called an ...
