Lung immunity is essential to combat all pulmonary diseases, including COVID-19, pneumonia, lung cancer, asthma, and COPD. Lung immunity differs from the systemic immunity which is the normal focus of ...

Scientists have taken a major step toward the goal of altering viruses, bacteria and tumor cells so that they demand attention from immune cells designed to destroy them. According to research ...

The chicken major histocompatibility complex (MHC) represents a compact and evolutionarily distinct genomic region that plays a critical role in orchestrating adaptive immunity. Characterised by a ...

Understanding how major histocompatibility complex class (MHC) molecules and peptides interact within the immune system is crucial for the advancement of biological sciences and medicine. A better ...

Recent analyses show that Omicron variants of SARS-CoV-2 more strongly suppress major histocompatibility complex class I expression than previous versions of the virus. Throughout the pandemic, the ...

Major histocompatibility complex class II (MHC-II) molecules play a critical, yet historically overlooked, role in tumor immunity. This review synthesizes emerging mechanistic evidence showing that ...

In a recent study published in Science Advances, researchers presented a deep learning framework, termed DeepAIR, to accurately predict adaptive immune receptor (AIR)-antigen binding by integrating ...

The tumor-immunity cycle outlines the processes that trigger anti-tumoral immunological responses. It stresses the iterative aspect of the reaction, in which tumor cell death by T lymphocytes triggers ...
