MHC class II molecules are central to the adaptive immune response, serving as the means by which antigen-presenting cells, notably dendritic cells, display processed peptides to CD4+ T cells. This ...
Regulatory T cells protect the body from misdirected or overly excited immune responses. A new study highlights previously unknown characteristics of these cells that could guide the development of ...
Our cells produce a variety of proteins, each with a specific role that, in many cases, means that they need to be in a particular part of the cell where that role is needed. One of the ways that ...
A groundbreaking study published in Research (2025, DOI: 10.34133/research.0545) has elucidated the molecular mechanisms by which protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) regulates CD8+ T cell-mediated immune ...
T Cells Gain Phagocytic Function via Specific Antigen RecognitionThe research team engineered CD8+ Jurkat T cells to express SVAR16 ...
An often-ignored type of cell in the brain plays a dynamic and surprisingly complex role in our ability to process information, according to new research. An often-ignored type of cell in the brain ...
