This is part of a series of stories on the protective role of innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) in the gut and other tissues, focusing on SARS-CoV-2 infection. One area that hasn’t received all that much ...

Adaptive Biotechnologies and tech giant Microsoft first teamed up in 2018, they were using cloud computing to “decode” the immune system. Using immuno-sequencing, proprietary computational modeling ...

Scientists studied the adaptive immune system as a kind of artificial intelligence that can be trained to produce the correct response to invasion by pathogens. This work may lead to more effective ...

The President of the United States declared a war on cancer fifty years ago. At the time, the idea of one’s own immune system killing the cancer was far from mainstream. Technological innovation and ...

The human immune system is split into the innate immune system and the adaptive immune system. Both systems work in harmony to protect us from infections and disease. Here, we discuss their ...

A new study partially explains why tuberculosis infections easily take hold in the host's lungs and suggests that boosting T cell response is key to creating a therapy that can shut down the infection ...

Trained immunity is a newly emerging concept that defines the ability of the innate immune system to form immune memory and provide long-lasting protection against foreign invaders. The human immune ...

SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Adaptive Biotechnologies, a leader in next-generation sequencing (NGS) of T- and B-cell receptors of the adaptive immune system, announced today their partnership with ...

PITTSBURGH, May 17, 2022 – Unlike other infectious diseases that affect the lungs, the immune response to fight tuberculosis (TB) infections develops at least twice as slowly. Until recently, the ...
