An antibody is a blood protein that is produced in response to and counteracts an antigen. Antibodies are produced in response to disease and help the body fight against the particular disease. In this way, antibodies help the body develop an immunity to disease.

Advanced Peptides Overcome Human Biological Barriers in New Cancer Medicine

Influencers across TikTok and the internet have been touting peptides as a beauty and health cure-all, with some claiming they can de-age you or significantly transform your appearance.

Locally Activated Skull T Cells Halt Glioblastoma Growth in Mice

Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have discovered lymph node-like structures in the skull bone marrow of mice for the first time and demonstrated that they act as rapid first responders against brain cancer before distant lymph nodes get the signal that abnormal cells are present.

Batista Lab Identifies Crucial Protein Targets to Extend Malaria Vaccine Efficacy

A study reveals how targeting specific protein regions in malaria vaccines could enhance efficacy, potentially saving more lives in vulnerable populations.

Bone Marrow T Cells Exhibit Conditional Preparedness Against Cancer

A team led by researchers from the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ), the HI-STEM Stem Cell Institute, and Medical Clinic V at Heidelberg University Hospital (UKHD) has characterized T cells in the bone marrow in cases of multiple myeloma and acute myeloid leukemia: A specific group of tumor-reactive T cells can recognize and, in principle, fight cancer cells, but is often not sufficiently activated.

Dynamic Structural Flexibility of Human Norovirus Evade the Immune System

Human norovirus is the leading cause of acute gastroenteritis worldwide and is estimated to infect 600–700 million people each year. Despite its enormous public health impact, no effective antiviral drugs are currently available.

Microneedle Patches Turn Skin Into a Window for Immune Bioanalysis

Researchers combined local restimulation of skin-resident memory T cells with hydrogel-coated microneedle patches to recruit and sample rare immune cells. In mouse models, the approach recovered more antigen-specific T cells than a blood sample or punch biopsy, while studies in humans supported short-term tolerability and proof-of-concept cell sampling.

Dengue Virus Replicates Inside Memory B Cells to Evade Immunity

Researchers at the University of Vermont Robert Larner, M.D. College of Medicine and Upstate Medical University in Syracuse, NY, have discovered that dengue virus can infect and replicate inside memory B cells, immune cells traditionally understood to help protect the body from infection.

3D Mapping of Tonsil Genetic Structures Unlocks Antibody Optimization

About 2 meters worth of genetic material must fit into the nucleus of each and every one of most of our trillions of cells, coiling and winding to form what looks like a tangled mess.

Artificially Recreating C3 Effects Overcomes Resistance in Hard-to-Treat Tumors

An ancient molecule that existed long before the blood circulation system evolved, has been found to support cancer immunotherapy. Researchers at Nagoya University in Japan found that complement C3 protein acts inside tumors to prevent the accumulation of immunosuppressive cells, but only when produced inside the tumor.
