More profoundly than previously believed, the virus that causes COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2, can impact the brain for months after infection.

Using a mouse model, researchers have discovered a new daily rhythm in a type of synapse that dampens brain activity.

Researchers investigated whether immunity against seasonal human coronavirus spike proteins of HKU1, OC43, NL63, or 229E could protect against SARS-CoV-2 in vitro.

Genetic mutations kick start cancers. Some mutations shuffle the genetic code, others come from the deletion of key genes.

Researchers at the University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine have demonstrated in a mouse model that a specific type of T cell, one of the body's potent immune defenses, produces cytokines that are necessary for the body to acquire immunity against fungal pathogens.

UVA Health researchers have discovered a molecule in the brain responsible for orchestrating the immune system's responses to Alzheimer's disease and multiple sclerosis (MS), potentially allowing doctors to supercharge the body's ability to fight those and other devastating neurological diseases.

A new study has found that ancient Mars may have been able to support a large population of microscopic organisms. The study suggests the microorganisms might have been growing just beneath the Mars surface about 4 billion years ago.

Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine and collaborating institutions discovered that the rheumatoid arthritis drug auranofin can potentially be repurposed to improve diabetes-associated symptoms.
