We owe a lot to tissue resident memory T cells (T RM). These specialized immune cells are among the body's first responders to disease. Subscribe to our newsletter for the latest sci-tech news updates ...

Metabolism guides the activation states of regulatory T cells, the immune cells that prevent inappropriate activation of the immune system. St. Jude Children's Research Hospital scientists recently ...

While presenting this year’s Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine to three immunologists who discovered and characterized regulatory T cells, committee chair Olle Kämpe, M.D., Ph.D., told the ...

Why do immune cells that are supposed to eliminate viruses suddenly turn against our own body? There are instances where killer T cells—which are meant to precisely remove virus-infected ...

Scientists at Cincinnati Children's have identified how certain immune cells are molecularly programmed to respond faster ...

All cells need to sense and respond to their environment—to know when to activate genes, build proteins and carry out their basic functions. One of the most well-studied cellular responses is how they ...
