Cheap, effective tests for patients in Africa too unprofitable.
By studying the immune systems of people with natural resistance to HIV, scientists have discovered how their cells disarm the virus. The research could lead the way to an AIDS vaccine for the rest of the population.
Montreal researchers have identified a key player in eye diseases afflicting premature babies, the elderly and people affected by diabetes, providing new hope for millions at risk of vision loss and blindness.
A new study has found that a surprisingly high number of maternal cells enters the fetus during pregnancy, prompting the generation of special immune cells in the fetus that suppress a response against the mother.
A UCSF study has found that a surprisingly high number of maternal cells enters the fetus during pregnancy, prompting the generation of special immune cells in the fetus that suppress a response against the mother.
EpiCept Corporation (Nasdaq and OMX Nordic Exchange: EPCT) today announced that new data on the benefits of maintenance therapy with CepleneĀ® (histamine dihydrochloride) and interleukin-2 (IL-2) for Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) patients in complete remission will be presented at the 50th American
( University of California - San Francisco ) A UCSF study has found that a surprisingly high number of maternal cells enters the fetus during pregnancy, prompting the generation of special immune cells in the fetus that suppress a response against the mother.
THURSDAY, Dec. 4 (HealthDay News) -- During pregnancy, many of the mother's cells enter the fetus and produce immune cells that prevent the growing baby from rejecting its mother, new research shows.
To help develop an effective HIV vaccine, researchers are trying to better understand how the immune systems of a small minority of HIV-infected people known as long-term non-progressors (LTNPs) contain the virus naturally. CD8+ T cells, which kill cells infected with HIV, enable LTNPs to control HIV, but it has been unclear how CD8+ T cells mediate that control so effectively. A new report ...
People who manage to control HIV on their own are providing scientists with valuable information about how the immune system eliminates virus-infected cells. A new study, published in the December 4th issue of Immunity, a Cell Press publication, identifies specific characteristics of the immune cells that successfully destroy HIV-infected cells and may drive strategies for developing the next ...
