Dendritic cells (DC) 'prime' tumor antigen-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes; thus, we investigated whether DC might also trigger the innate, NK cell-mediated anti-tumor immunity. In mice with MHC ...

One of Immunicum’s approaches involves injecting highly inflammatory dendritic cells into solid tumors to trigger innate immunity at the tumor site. This leads to activation of a potent tumor ...

Our body's own defense system not only clears away bacteria and viruses, it can also fight cancer. However, not all tumor ...

LMU researchers have shown that a particular type of immune cell acts more flexibly than previously thought—with the potential for new therapeutic approaches. As part of the innate immune system ...

the innate immune system, consists of a variety of cell types, including natural killer (NK) cells, macrophages and dendritic cells, that serve as an initial line of defense against threats.

Home > Press release: Power vaccination against cancer boosts ... New hope: MHH researchers are mobilising the immune system's defence against tumour cells within just two weeks using a two-phase ...

A study led by the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares Carlos III (CNIC), in collaboration with the Instituto ...

In a study published today (October 20) in Science Translational Medicine, researchers show that these cells, the most abundant in circulation, also alert the immune system to the presence of bacteria ...

New research zeroes in on a unique group of immune cells that could transform how we treat—and possibly prevent—severe food ...

The immune system is comprised of various cells that work in concert to fight off disease. The two immune responses, innate and adaptive, are orchestrated | Immunology ...

Tolerogenic dendritic cells in the intestines are shown to reduce the immune responses caused by exposure to food proteins.

The cells of the immune system are the guardians of these organisms – able to distinguish friend from foe and self from nonself. To accomplish this task in an organism with perhaps trillions of cells, ...
