Researchers at Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University have identified a novel type of immune cell, called the stem-like CD4 T cell, that plays a pivotal role in anti-tumor immunity. The ...

Researchers have identified a novel type of immune cell, called the stem-like CD4 T cell, that plays a pivotal role in anti-tumor immunity. The pre-clinical findings highlight the potential to ...

Immune-inflammatory skin diseases (e.g., psoriasis, atopic dermatitis) involve dysregulation of CD4+ T-cell subsets (Th1/Th2/Th17/Treg) and cytokine networks (IL-17/IL-23/IL-4). Biologics targeting ...

The researchers concluded that the interplay between CD4 and CD8 T cells creates an anti-inflammatory environment that is hostile to Mtb and, as a result, limits bacterial growth and disease severity.

In this study, we revealed the pulmonary pathogen profiles of immunosuppressed ICU patients based on CD4+T-cell counts: the severe group showed a predominance of fungal/rare infections, whereas in the ...

For most people infected with Chikungunya virus (CHIKV), the illness is over in a few weeks, marked by a febrile illness, rash, and joint and muscle pain. But for as many as 60% of patients, the virus ...

A topical cream activated the skin's immune defenses and suppressed tumor growth in two preclinical models of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC), according to a study published in the Journal of ...

Memory cells in the nose slow the influenza virus as soon as it enters the body. They reduce viral levels and may help ...

A team of researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology and Emory University has developed a deep-ultraviolet (UV) microscopy method that can ...
