Researchers have discovered that SARS-CoV-2 hijacks three important host proteins that dampen the activity of the complement system, a key component of early antiviral immunity. This significantly ...

Salk scientists determine how three variants of a protein complex coordinate pathogen-specific immune responses in mice; findings may lead to new therapeutics for inflammation LA JOLLA (June 5, ...

Undertaking a study of proteins found in the complement system, an important part of the immune system, of patients with long COVID, researchers have identified a blood protein ‘signature’ that may ...

Researchers at the Medical University of Vienna and the Medical University of Innsbruck discovered that SARS-CoV-2 hijacks three important host proteins that dampen the activity of the complement ...

Scientists have found a way to supercharge the immune system’s T cells by blocking a protein called Ant2, essentially rewiring how these cells generate energy. This metabolic reprogramming makes them ...

The story of Q32 Bio, a company that develops therapeutics for inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, started two decades ago. That's when V. Michael Holers, MD, a University of Colorado School of ...

The finding is yet another emerging example of antibiotic tolerance stemming from an individual's own immune system, rather than a pathogen alone. Having identified a new player in antibiotic ...
