Penn study finds a new role for RNA in human immune response
Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine have published the first study to test the role of RNA chemical modifications on immunity. view more (2005-08-24)
New origin found for a critical immune response
An immune system response that is critical to the first stages of fighting off viruses and harmful bacteria comes from an entirely different direction than most scientists had thought, according to a finding by researchers at the Duke University Medical Center. view more (2009-03-02)
The molecular mechanism of a diabetes vaccine revealed
A team of researchers led by Prof. Irun Cohen of the Weizmann Institute of Science Immunology Department has revealed the molecular mechanism of a vaccine for Type 1 diabetes. view more (2006-06-20)
Bug surprise for drug traffickers - Microbiology Today: May 2004 issue
Bacteria could be the new weapon in the fight against drug trafficking, according to an article published in the May 2004 issue of Microbiology Today, the quarterly magazine for the Society for General Microbiology. Researchers at CNAP, University of York, have found bacteria that grow on heroin and morphine and believe that two special proteins... view more... (2004-05-17)
New study shows health benefits of probiotic could extend to the entire body
Data from a recent study demonstrate the anti-inflammatory and pathogen protection benefits of Bifidobacterium infantis 35624 a probiotic bacterial strain of human origin. view more (2008-08-25)
Immune mechanism could help explain transient immune suppression often seen in acute infections
Scientists have discovered that at the same time the immune system is vigorously attacking invading viruses or bacteria, it is unexpectedly reducing its production of a particular type of factor that directs the movement of immune cells. view more (2007-08-03)
Math could help cure leukemia
When kids complain that math homework won't help them in real life, a new answer might be that math could help cure cancer. view more (2008-06-20)
Researchers find hepatitis A and hepatitis C attack same protein to block immune defenses
Despite the fact that they both infect the liver, the hepatitis A and hepatitis C viruses actually have very little in common. view more (2007-04-19)
Scientists discover a direct route from the brain to the immune system
It used to be dogma that the brain was shut away from the actions of the immune system, shielded from the outside forces of nature. But that's not how it is at all. In fact, thanks to the scientific detective work of Kevin Tracey, MD, it turns out that the brain talks directly to the immune system, sending commands that control the body's... view more...

Molecular switch may turn off immune cells that target HIV
One of the primary mysteries of the AIDS epidemic - why the immune system is unable to control HIV infection - may have been solved by an international research collaborative. view more (2006-08-21)
Glue inside the cell: Ubiquitin builds up an immune response
Ubiquitin is a small protein, which can be attached to other cellular proteins, a process known as ubiquitination. Discoveries in the 1980 th on a key function of ubiquitination in the regulation of protein degradation where awarded with the Nobel Prize for chemistry in 2004. view more (2007-10-22)
Combination treatment enhances tetanus vaccination
In studies with mice, Penn State researchers have shown that a combination of retinoic acid - a product the body makes naturally from vitamin A - and PIC, a synthetic immunity booster, significantly elevates the immune system response to a tetanus shot. view more (2005-09-13)
Commonly used antidepressants may also affect human immune system
Drugs that treat depression by manipulating the neurotransmitter serotonin in the brain may also affect the user's immune system in ways that are not yet understood, say scientists from Georgetown University Medical Center and a Canadian research institute. view more (2006-01-20)
What is potentially pathogenic role of anti-tTG IgA in the development of celiac disease?
The recent detection of antibodies in celiac patients specific for deamidated gliadin peptides (DGP), the product of tTG binding to gliadin peptides, provides an opportunity to address the correlation between the production of anti-tTG IgA and the antibodies against DGP in celiac patients. view more (2009-02-23)
Cold virus found to manipulate genes
Sneezing, runny nose and chills? You might blame the human rhinovirus (HRV), which causes 30 to 50 percent of common colds. But in reality, it's not the virus itself but HRV's ability to manipulate your genes that is the true cause of some of the most annoying cold symptoms. view more (2008-10-27)
Biodegradable microspheres deliver time release vaccines, stimulate different immune response
A new vaccine delivery system using microspheres of a biodegradable polymer may not only reduce the need for booster shots in some cases, but also appears to stimulate an immune response that traditional vaccines do not. view more (2007-03-01)
Limiting damage after heart transplantation
Scientists from Imperial College School of Medicine at Harefield Hospital may have found a way of dampening down damaging immune responses following heart transplants. Professor Rose will describe her work at the British Society for Immunology’s Congress 2000 in Harrogate today (Thursday 7 December 2000). World-wide, 5,000 heart transplants... view more...

How do you make the perfect vaccine?
A big challenge in vaccine design is how to trigger a protective immune response with the safest possible vaccine. Research into how Salmonella bacteria cause infection is leading to safer, more effective, vaccines against typhoid and other diseases, scientists heard today (Tuesday 09 April 2002) at the spring meeting of the Society for General... view more...

Study shows workplace benefits of influenza vaccination in 50-64 year olds
Workers age 50-64 who received influenza vaccine lost substantially fewer days of work and worked fewer days while ill, according to a new study in the Feb. 1 issue of Clinical Infectious Diseases, now available online. view more (2009-01-14)
Sensitive nanowire disease detectors made by Yale scientists
Yale scientists have created nanowire sensors coupled with simple microprocessor electronics that are both sensitive and specific enough to be used for point-of-care (POC) disease detection, according to a report in Nano Letters. view more (2008-10-13)
