Researchers examined the pathological impacts of the structural components of SARS-CoV-2 on human periodontal cells and tissue to understand the association between coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and deteriorating oral health.

Scientists from Trinity College Dublin have made an important breakthrough in understanding how inflammation is regulated. They have just discovered that a key immune alarm protein previously believed to calm down the immune response actually does the opposite.

A new study in the journal Vaccines aimed to analyze the long-term kinetics of SARS-CoV-2 specific T cell and humoral responses following primary and booster vaccinations in previously infected individuals.

Scientists at UC San Francisco have engineered T cells to produce a potent anti-cancer cytokine, but only when they encounter tumor cells.

For the longest time, clinicians have treated cardiovascular disease by focusing on diabetes and blood pressure control, reducing cholesterol using medications like aspirin and statins.

Researchers demonstrated the exceptional immune evasion properties of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Omicron subvariants, BQ and XBB.

According to recent estimates, over 140 million people from 50 countries regularly get exposed to arsenic through drinking water.

In two separate studies, researchers demonstrate how synthetic biology can be used to tackle a difficult issue in cancer immunotherapy: the way immunotherapy-related approaches focused on short-term killing of tumor cells may fail to eradicate tumors because growth of tumors happens on longer timescales.

A recent Diabetes Care journal paper summarized the latest recommendations offered to people with diabetes to improve their health and well-being.

Researchers used serological measurements from a longitudinal cohort to evaluate the use of binding antibodies against the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein receptor binding domain as correlates of protection against the immune evasive Omicron subvariants BA.1 and BA.2.
