Immune complex-mediated membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (IC-MPGN) is a rare disease that affects the filtering units in your kidneys (glomeruli). There are many types of glomerular diseases.

In the innate immune compartment, short-chain fatty acids can suppress dendritic cell antigen presentation while simultaneously promoting IL-10 and retinoic acid production, favoring an ...

Receptors on B and T cells hint at what the immune system is targeting. An AI approach called Mal-ID developed increases diagnostic accuracy, particularly for autoimmune diseases. Your immune system ...

Immunotherapies are undoubtedly transforming the landscape of cancer treatment worldwide. By harnessing the body's immune system to fight disease, they can achieve outcomes in advanced cancers that ...

A combination blood stem cell and pancreatic islet cell transplant from an immunologically mismatched donor completely prevented or cured Type 1 diabetes in mice in a study by Stanford Medicine ...

Your immune system harbors a lifetime's worth of information about threats it's encountered—a biological Rolodex of baddies. Often the perpetrators are viruses and bacteria you've conquered; others ...
