An innovative approach supercharges the innate immune system to provide a first line of defence against respiratory ...

The innate immune system serves as the body's first line of defence, rapidly detecting and responding to external pathogens and internal damage. Recent advances in the field have highlighted the ...

Scientists discover how innate immunity envelops bacteria. The protein GBP1 is a vital component of our body's natural defense against pathogens. This substance fights against bacteria and parasites ...

The new GLA-3M-052-LS+OVA vaccine can be delivered as a nasal spray. Three doses protected mice from infection from SARS-CoV-2 and other coronaviruses for three months, and reduced the viral load in ...

Stanford Medicine researchers developed a nasal spray vaccine that protected mice against viruses, bacteria and allergens — a ...

Background Concomitant metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is prevalent in patients with chronic ...

When thinking about the immune system, most people think about B and T cells and how they can be trained to recognize pathogens, preventing re-infections. Besides this "adaptive" immune system, we ...

Traditionally, vaccines protect against one particular pathogen, but in this study, Stanford Medicine researchers created a ...

A vaccine usually trains your immune system to recognize one target. Here, the target is basically “anything that doesn’t belong in the lungs.

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are classically defined by cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibition, yet increasing evidence shows that many NSAIDs ...

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 ...

When a transplanted organ arrives, it’s like a controlled burn that risks becoming a wildfire. The body’s innate immune system senses damage signals, like heat shock proteins (HSP70), and sounds the ...
