Researchers assessed the influence of rapid engineering of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) therapeutic antibodies to expand the neutralization spectrum.

Researchers investigated the CAMCI strategy as an immunotherapeutic option for inflammatory bowel disease.

Researchers determine whether protein expression in nasal fluid samples could assist in the diagnosis of severe asthma subtypes.

A recent study evaluates the presence of SARS-CoV-2 in children’s tonsils during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Researchers characterized immunological responses by pulmonary mucosal tissues post-COVID-19 vaccination and/or SARS-CoV-2 infection, to assess the impact of hybrid immune protection on the durability of mucosal immunological responses.

Researchers investigated whether endothelial TLR3 insufficiency contributes to lung vascular remodeling induced by SARS-CoV-2.

Researchers performed dSTORM (direct stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy) with several labeling techniques for visualizing and quantifying ACE2 receptor expression on various cells.

Despite birth control existing for decades, almost none of the options specifically target sperm cells. Researchers are now developing approaches that target testosterone or otherwise interrupt the sperm's ability to fertilize an egg, yet these may not work for everyone.

The vital role of oxytocin-;the "love hormone"-;for social attachments is being called into question. More than forty years of pharmacological and behavioral research has pointed to oxytocin receptor signaling as an essential pathway for the development of social behaviors in prairie voles, humans, and other species, but a genetic study publishing in the journal Neuron on January 27 shows that voles can form enduring attachments with mates and provide parental care without oxytocin rec...

Turning a decades-old dogma on its head, new research from scientists at UC San Francisco and Stanford Medicine shows that the receptor for oxytocin, a hormone considered essential to forming social bonds, may not play the critical role that scientists have assigned to it for the past 30 years.
