Innate lymphoid cells, which curiously behave like T cells even though they don’t recognize specific antigens, show promise as a potential cancer therapeutic.

Now, researchers from Penn’s School of Dental Medicine and international collaborators have investigated the effects of training the innate immune system in experimental models of two chronic ...

But inflammation—the innate immune system’s natural response to harmful stimuli—can also exacerbate symptoms or even cause diseases, demonstrating the need to better understand the immune ...

Crohn's disease (CD) is characterized by adherent mucosal bacteria and an adaptive inflammatory response ... will be identified in the near future. Innate and adaptive immune components are ...

Increasing evidence suggests that early inflammation, mediated by the innate immune system, plays a pivotal role in setting the stage for rejection. Recognizing this gap, the Mass General Brigham ...

C-reactive protein (CRP) increases rapidly in response to infection and inflammation. CRP provides a link between the innate and adaptive immune systems by activation of complement and interaction ...

Findings show that the BNT162b2 vaccine dampened the production of inflammatory mediators to bacterial, fungal and viral pathogens (compared with innate immune responses induced in the same person ...
