A virus that typically infects black-eyed peas is showing great promise as a low-cost, potent cancer immunotherapy—and researchers are uncovering why. In a study published in Cell Biomaterials, a team ...

Researchers at Mass General Brigham have modified a herpes simplex virus (HSV-1) that stimulates the immune system to attack glioblastoma cells. A single dose of the modified virus increased T-cell, ...

A virus from humble black-eyed peas is showing extraordinary promise in the fight against cancer. Unlike other plant viruses, the cowpea mosaic virus (CPMV) can awaken the human immune system and ...

In a recent study published in the journal PLOS Pathogens, researchers investigated humoral and cell-mediated immune responses to Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients, ...

Scientists generally agree that eukaryotes, the domain of life whose cells contain nuclei and that includes almost all multicellular organisms, originated from a process involving the symbiotic union ...

Prior exposure to one strain of influenza virus may weaken children's ability to mount an effective antibody response against their subsequent exposure to a different flu strain, according to a study ...

A new study from the University of Gothenburg may help guide the development of better influenza vaccines. Memory cells in ...

A combination of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) antibodies and genetic factors may be linked to an increased risk of multiple sclerosis (MS), according to a study led by scientists at Karolinska Institutet ...

The intense reaction of one of the lungs’ guardians against infection may help explain why COVID-19 can become severe. The guardians, immune cells called interstitial macrophages, patrol lung tissue.
