Scientists at the National Institutes of Health have found a mechanism in the immune systems of mice that can lead to the development of autoimmune disease when turned off. The findings shed light on ...

A study by the research team of Prof. Geert van Loo (VIB-UGent Center for Inflammation Research) has unraveled a critical molecular mechanism behind autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as ...

Scientists at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York have identified which parts of the immune system go awry and contribute to autoimmune diseases in individuals with Down syndrome.

Scientists at the Department of Infection and Immunity of the Luxembourg Institute of Health (LIH) revealed a novel mechanism through which the immune system can control autoimmunity and cancer. In ...

The immune system is responsible for safeguarding the body from external and internal dangers. It does this, for the most part, by targeting and eliminating perceived threats ranging from invading ...

Scientists have found a new piece in the puzzle that explains why B cells self-react in autoimmune disease—and, with it, a potential new treatment strategy. In an article published Sept. 29 in the ...
