Scientists identified a gene switch that helps immune cells fully mature, allowing them to clean up tissues and keep our organs healthy.

A single genetic “switch” may be the secret to how the body’s cleanup crew grows up and keeps our organs running smoothly.

Our immune system relies on T cells to fight infections. But T cells don't just show up and react—first, they train, get a ...

As populations age worldwide, the decline of the immune system, a process known as immunosenescence, has become a critical biomedical challenge. This decline leads to increased susceptibility to ...

Scientists have uncovered a powerful genetic switch that helps some of the body’s most important immune cells grow up properly and keep our organs healthy. The switch, called MafB, guides immature ...

Organ transplants save lives, but unfortunately rejection is a key hurdle. Now scientists have demonstrated a potential new way to prime a recipient’s immune system to accept a transplanted organ, by ...

During fasting or exercise, immune cells (red) migrate to the pancreas and stimulate glucagon-producing cells (orange) to regulate blood sugar, with cell nuclei shown in blue. “For decades, immunology ...

Vagus nerve stimulation may treat many diseases by changing brain signals, inflammation, and organ communication.
