Challenging a long-standing assumption regarding the adult brain, recent research has demonstrated that individuals can ...

By profiling over 16 million immune cells from people aged 22 to 65 after flu vaccination, scientists discovered that memory ...

B cells are a central component of the adaptive immune system, responsible for recognising pathogens and producing antibodies that neutralise infections. Their development, activation and ...

Sequential administration of the 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) and the 23-valent polysaccharide vaccine (PPSV23) led to nonsignificant increases in memory B cells by week 28 in ...

Scientists from Duke-NUS Medical School and their collaborators have created one of the most comprehensive single cell maps of the developing human brain. The atlas captures nearly every cell type, ...

However, details of the intervening steps, as researchers have learned in the past 65 years, are quite complex — certain cells carry the flu antigen to the immune system, specific immune cells respond ...

At the surface, the immune response to a flu virus is simple. Some cells recognize the pathogen and send a signal to the immune system, and immune cells produce a potentially lifesaving antibody ...

Immunotherapy has been one of the most promising advancements in cancer treatment. However, consistency in immunotherapy ...

Conjugate vaccines are composed of bacterial polysaccharide antigens covalently linked to protein carriers, enabling T cell-dependent immune responses that induce high-affinity antibodies and ...
