experiments on mouse tumor tissue (Fig. 1a). The choice of 15 markers enables a functional description of a set of immune cells, cancer fingerprints and structural hallmarks in this tissue.

For all they do protecting the body, immune cells can sometimes do more harm than good by setting off problems such as arthritis and allergies. Now, a study published in Science on May 26 uncovers a ...

Immunodeficient mouse holding human tumor cells and human immune cells demonstrates tumor metastasis in the lungs. Such tumor metastasis is prevented by short synthetic mRNA injections, as they ...

Medically reviewed by Doru Paul, MD CD20 is a CD marker—a molecule on the cell surface that can be used to identify and type ...

For decades, dogma dictated that the immune system consisted of two separate branches. Cells of the innate system respond rapidly to molecular patterns shared by a broad array of pathogens. Meanwhile, ...
