T cells are central to adaptive immunity, orchestrating targeted responses against infections and malignancies while forming a durable immunological memory. Memory T cells, particularly CD8+ subsets, ...

An integrin mutation impairs skin T cell migration, enabling HPV proliferation that causes warts and lesions in a rare genetic dermatological condition.

Memory T cells are a special type of white blood cell that "remember" past infections and vaccines, helping our bodies to quickly respond if we encounter the same germs again. These cells are found ...

Even when immune memory cells form in the lung after influenza infection, insufficient dietary iron leaves them less able to mount a strong antiviral response, revealing how nutrition can shape ...

Pre-wired ability in ‘resting’ T cells to remember past viral foes discovered, a promising breakthrough for targeted cancer therapies. A team of immunologists at the University of Massachusetts ...

A unique quality of the immune system is that it can generate a ‘memory’ response. This is generally referred to as ‘immune ...

Uncover how memory T cells contribute to the recurrence of periodontal disease using cutting-edge immunology and single-cell technologies. This project explores how memory T cells contribute to the ...

When killer T cells of our immune system divide, they normally undergo asymmetric cell division (ACD): Each daughter cell inherits different cellular components, which drive the cells toward divergent ...

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 ...
