The current research frontier in blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) is moving toward combination triplet ...

Why do diabetic wounds refuse to heal? A new scientific review highlights how disruptions in the timing and behavior of ...

Potential autoimmune diseases therapies that target dendritic cells aim to either inhibit immunogenic dendritic cell functions or support their tolerogenic potential (Figure 2). Most strategies ...

Dendritic cells (DCs) are among the first immune sentinels to detect viruses, bacteria, or other challenges. These specialized messengers alert T cells while orchestrating either a measured calm or a ...

The immune system has evolved to mount immune responses against foreign pathogens and to remain silent against self-antigens. A balance between immunity and tolerance is required as any disturbance ...

Chronic diabetic ulcers represent one of the most challenging complications in modern healthcare, affecting over 131 million people worldwide and generating approximately $755 billion in annual ...

Follicular dendritic cell sarcoma (FDCS) is an uncommon neoplasm originating from the accessory cells of the immune system that ordinarily play a crucial role in antigen presentation and the ...

The immune system must be able to quickly attack invaders like viruses, while also ignoring harmless stimuli, or allergies can result. Immune cells are known to ignore or "tolerate" molecules found on ...

Treating the brain cancer glioblastoma (GBM) demands more than conventional strategies due to a mix of factors including the cancer’s genetic complexity, invasive growth, and immune resistance. A new ...

Low stress hormones in infancy may drive eczema risk by allowing immune cells to overreact to common allergens.
