Stem T Cells Replenish the Immune System During Chronic Infections and Diseases

T cells are an elite fighting force of the immune system, seeking out and destroying diseased cells. But in a prolonged campaign against a chronic condition - like a viral infection, or cancer - the body needs a steady supply of these killer troops. Where and how these killer troops are generated has been a mystery.

Research Links Bifidobacterium animalis Metabolites to Improved Anti-Tumor T Cell Immunity

Immune checkpoint inhibitors like anti-PD-1 have transformed melanoma treatment, yet more than half of patients fail to respond or eventually develop resistance. The tumor microenvironment and the gut microbiome are increasingly recognized as critical determinants of immunotherapy outcomes.

Cancer Cells Hijack Macrophage Metabolism to Create an Immunosuppressive Tumor Microenvironment

Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are among the most abundant immune cells in the tumor microenvironment. However, instead of attacking cancer cells, they are typically co-opted to support tumor growth, metastasis, and therapeutic resistance.

Researchers Discover How Bacteria Use Powerful Molecular Motors to Spread Drug Resistance

Every year bacteria kill more than a million people worldwide through infections that no longer respond to antibiotics. In many cases, why those bacteria are so hard to stop comes down to their uniquely powerful structure.

High Stomach Regeneration Rates Can Trigger Tumor Development

Few areas of the body face more daily stress and potential damage than the stomach, which must manage everything we swallow. Along with this constant strain, the stomach also produces acid that can damage its own lining and increase the risk of ulcers.

Single Breast Milk Molecule Reprograms Infant Immune Cells

Trans-vaccenic acid (TVA), the most abundant trans fatty acid found in human breast milk, helps boost immune system development and has long-lasting effects on immune system health in mice, according to a new study by researchers from the University of Chicago.
