In a new study, researchers systematically mapped the surface proteins on human leukocytes to examine interactions between their cell-surface proteomes and develop a physical wiring diagram ...

By using advanced screening methods to tune into the communications taking place between individual cells, scientists have produced the first full connectivity map of the human immune system. This ...

Shilts is first author of the researchers’ published paper in Nature, which is titled “ A physical wiring diagram for the human immune system,” in which they concluded, “To our knowledge ...

Researchers have created the first full connectivity map of the human immune system, showing how immune cells communicate with each other and ways to modulate these pathways in disease.

A study led by Prof. Liang Xingjie's team from the National Center for Nanoscience and Technology of the Chinese Academy of ...

Jesse, a 7th-grader at Root Middle School in Medina, took inspiration from the Ohio State-Michigan rivalry to illustrate how the human body’s immune system works.
