These miniature models -; known as human immune organoids -; mimic the real-life environment where immune cells learn to recognize and attack harmful invaders and respond to vaccines. Not only are ...
The left image shows the immune organ-on-chip, where the organoids (right) are grown to study the response of human donors. The right image shows development of types of immune cells relevant to the ...
To better understand why some cancer patients struggle to fight off infections, Georgia Tech researchers have created tiny ...
T helper (TH) cells are essential immune cells that help other immune cells function effectively. When activated in response to environmental stimuli, these cells can differentiate into either TH1 ...
Scientists uncovered a previously unrecognized tumor suppression mechanism through the study of condensates and ribosome formation.
The skin’s microbes can live on the amino acids in sweat, as well as the sebaceous oil released from hair follicles and the ...
Human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have a great potential for scientific and medical applications. They are used in ...
