New approach successfully differentiates between antibodies against influenza and SARS-CoV-2

A new study shows that it is possible to use the genetic sequences of a person's antibodies to predict what pathogens those antibodies will target.

Antibody dependent cellular cytotoxicity may influence HIV transmission from mother to child during breastfeeding

According to new research from Boston Medical Center, the antibody function known as antibody dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and the ADCC sensitivity of HIV strains may influence the transmission of HIV from mother to child during breastfeeding.

Using CR2Crry to reduce the negative effects of brain hemorrhaging in premature infants

A little over 1% of babies born in the U.S. in 2020 fell under the category of very low birthweight, meaning they weighed less than 1,500 grams at birth or 3 pounds, 4 ounces. And considering that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says more than 3.5 million babies were born that year, almost 48,500 were considered to be at very low birthweight.

CAR T-Cell Therapy: The Future of Cancer and HIV Treatment?

In this interview, News-Medical speaks to Professor Jun Huang about CAR T-cell therapy and its future as a potential treatment for cancer or HIV.

20 Apr 2022

Vertical transmission of SARS-CoV-2 uncommon

A new study shows that SARS-CoV-2 infection is not typically transferred to newborns from infected mothers, and if such transmission occurs, the resulting disease is usually mild.

Research sheds new light on how the body's immune system deals with malaria

By analyzing samples from patients who have been treated for malaria in Sweden, researchers at Karolinska Institutet can now describe how the immune system acts to protect the body after a malaria infection.
