Why do diabetic wounds refuse to heal? A new scientific review highlights how disruptions in the timing and behavior of ...

Antibodies, which recognize viruses and proteins that the body has encountered before, have long gotten most of the credit for giving the human immune system a memory. Now, researchers at the ...

A new study by researchers at Wake Forest University School of Medicine has identified a promising strategy to treat brain ...

Our new findings suggest that these changes in macrophages are actually readily reversible and do not inherently encode immune memory. Instead, the cells are dependent on ongoing signaling from ...

A single genetic “switch” may be the secret to how the body’s cleanup crew grows up and keeps our organs running smoothly.

Researchers at the University of Liège have identified a key genetic regulator that enables macrophages to reach full ...

Macrophages remain ready to fight infection thanks to signaling molecules left behind by previous infections. That is according to new research from scientists at the University of California, Los ...

Scientists from the University of Liege have identified a key genetic mechanism that is responsible for the maturation of ...

Scientists identified a gene switch that helps immune cells fully mature, allowing them to clean up tissues and keep our organs healthy.
