Dendritic cells occupy a pivotal role at the nexus of metabolism and immune regulation, employing distinct bioenergetic programmes to calibrate antigen uptake, processing and presentation. In their ...

Dendritic cells (DCs) in teleost fish are pivotal antigen-presenting cells that bridge the innate and adaptive arms of immunity. Morphologically and functionally analogous to their mammalian ...

The benefits of dietary fiber extend beyond digestive health, as dietary fiber-derived metabolites produced by gut microbiota ...

St. Jude Children's Research Hospital scientists have discovered how tumors disable immune "gatekeeper" cells that alert the rest of the immune system to the presence of cancer—and how restoring their ...

The immune cell repertoire is composed of many different cell types that are orchestrated in response to infection and other pathogens that enter the body. As a result, the body can defend itself ...
