In 1901, Paul Ehrlich conducted one of the landmark experiments in immunology. While studying the immune response in goats using blood from other animals, ...

There is significant crosstalk between DNA damage response (DDR) pathways and innate immune pathways. Both the individual pathways and their interactions are key areas of interest for the development ...

Scientists generally agree that eukaryotes, the domain of life whose cells contain nuclei and that includes almost all multicellular organisms, originated from a process involving the symbiotic union ...

Monocytes are white blood cells, known as leukocytes. They are an important part of the innate immune system and contribute to host defense in the blood by secreting large quantities of ...

Sepsis remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients, posing a major challenge to modern ...

Building upon earlier research, investigators at UT Southwestern Medical Center and their collaborators have identified a new innate immunity pathway that protects mammals from viral oncogenesis, the ...

Monocytes, a special type of white blood cell, play an important role in the innate immune system and contribute to host defense in the blood by secreting large quantities of pro-inflammatory ...

In several disease conditions, including infections and cancers, innate immune activation and nutrient scarcity occur together. A study from St. Jude Children's Research Hospital published today in ...

Head and neck cancer is rising in incidence, driven largely by oropharyngeal cancer related to human papillomavirus (HPV+ HNSCC). The principal curative treatment for HPV+ HNSCC is radiotherapy, which ...
