Gut microbiome could contribute to a person's risk for HIV infection, research suggests

New UCLA-led research suggests certain gut bacteria -- including one that is essential for a healthy gut microbiome – differ between people who go on to acquire HIV infection compared to those who have not become infected.

Researchers discover how cancer cells can turn off the immune system to help tumors grow

When cancer arises in the body, it starts with tumor cells that rapidly grow and divide and eventually spread.

Insights into the biology of virtual memory CD8+ T cells

Virtual memory CD8+ T cells (TVM) are a relatively recent discovery in humans. A new review discusses what is known about them from mouse models and their cellular equivalents in humans, as described in the peer-reviewed Journal of Interferon & Cytokine Research.

Study suggests the immune system may benefit from a measure of stress

Stress has been linked to all sorts of serious health issues, from insomnia to high blood pressure, obesity and even heart disease. But it's generally acknowledged that some stress can also be helpful, like when someone's chasing a work deadline.

Study characterizes immunological signature of SARS-CoV-2 infection in children

A recent study has demonstrated that the clinical severity of COVID-19 in children depends on the dynamics of immune response induced by SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Systemic inflammation triggered by SARS-CoV-2 found to cause human testicular injury

In a new study, a team of researchers demonstrated that testicular injury in humans is not due to direct SARS-CoV-2 infection but more likely is an indirect effect of exposure to systemic inflammation or SARS-CoV-2 antigens.

What is the association between body fat and COVID-19?

Researchers recently assessed the association between adipose tissues and COVID-19 by evaluating autopsy cases and profiling adipose tissue responses to SARS-CoV-2 infections.

Study reveals a testable hypothesis to explain the initiation of autoimmunity in T1D patients

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease in which the pancreas makes little or no insulin. The details on the events that occur during autoimmune destruction of the pancreatic beta-cells have been studied extensively yet the mystery of what causes autoimmunity is unknown.

Study describes the dynamics of immune responses to triple COVID-19 vaccination

The effectiveness of the three-dose COVID-19 vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 and its variants has been described in detail in a recent study.

Study using circulating spike protein and macrophage dysregulation liquid biomarkers reveals heterogeneity in PASC

In a new study, researchers designed a liquid biomarker panel consisting of macrophage and monocyte-related soluble factors and circulating spike proteins to understand profiles of immune dysregulation in patients with post-acute sequelae of COVID-19.

What is the efficacy of aerosol treatment for SARS-CoV-2 infection?

In a new study, researchers assessed the efficacy of the scFv76 antibody against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) lung damage.

Why fatigue from long COVID goes beyond simply feeling tired

In a recent study posted to the medRxiv* preprint server, researchers in the Netherlands examined the role of inflammatory genes, cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CD8+ T cells), and pro-inflammatory cytokines in long-lasting severe fatigue experienced by a large number of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients.

Research examines the roles of cytokines during SARS-CoV-2 infection in rhesus macaques

In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* preprint server, researchers in the United States assessed the role of two cytokines, interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) and interleukin-10 (IL-10), in regulating immune cell responses and inflammation early during severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection in rhesus macaques.

Mechanism of action of different COVID-19 vaccines

In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* preprint server, researchers at the University of Tuebingen and Imperial College London assessed humoral and cellular immune responses elicited by the recombinant adenoviral vector (rAdVV)- and messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA)-based coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines.

Parenteral-prime mucosal boost an effective strategy to protect against SARS-CoV-2

In a recent study published in the journal eBioMedicine, researchers in Denmark and Sweden administered a cationic liposome-adjuvanted severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike (S) protein subunit vaccine as a subcutaneous (s.c.) prime-intranasal (i.n.) boost strategy to elicit mucosal immune responses among SARS-CoV-2-infected Syrian hamsters.
