Meanwhile, the adaptive system, consisting of T and B cells, responds more slowly, targeting specific antigens and generating long-lived memory cells to enable a quicker, stronger secondary response.

Pathogen-fighting immune cells called tissue-resident memory CD8 T cells (TRM cells) go through a surprising transformation -- and relocation -- as they fight infections in the small intestine.

Immune cells called regulatory T cells have long been known for their role in countering inflammation. In the setting of ...

In their study published in Nature Communications, researchers identified an unusual type of brain cell they named “ovoid ...

Developing effective treatments and understanding how the mechanism of the immune system have always been challenging for ...

demonstrates a function of targeted centrosome inheritance during CD8 + T cell division for the generation of memory precursor cells. CD8 + T cells are a crucial component of adaptive immune ...
