The discovery sheds light on how cancer cells are able to avoid immune system recognition and propagate throughout the body. It was published in the esteemed scientific journal Nature Communications More
Despite our ability to create a range of antibodies to target viruses, humans create antibodies that target the same viral regions again and again, according to a new study led by investigators from Brigham and Women’s Hospital, a founding member of the Mass General Brigham healthcare system, and Harvard Medical School.

The key feature of tuberculosis infection in humans is the formation of granulomas, or clusters of immune cells in the lungs that contain the infection. These granulomas contain B cells, all-purpose immune cells that perform a variety of functions, from producing antibodies to regulating the activity of other cells. For years, researchers assumed that these […] More
A paper published today in Nature Aging has shown that a macrophage-regulating factor has a significant impact on muscle regeneration.

The first is stem cell exhaustion, the gradual depletion of stem cells and ensuing lack of functional […] More
