A new collaborative study – recently published in the journal Cellular Immunology - between Trinity’s School of Medicine and the Trinity College Institute of Neuroscience (TCIN) is closing the ...

Cytokines are secreted proteins critical for immune regulation, cell signaling, and tissue homeostasis. These cells are increasingly recognized as key tools in biomedical research, particularly in ...

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common autoimmune disease in which the immune system recognizes autoantigens on otherwise healthy joint tissues as foreign invaders, inducing a localized inflammatory ...

Think of it this way — the human body is a kingdom which is healthy, prosperous and functions peacefully. Every once in a while, invaders from the pathogen kingdom attack the body. But the human ...

Psoriasis, a chronic inflammatory skin condition characterized by dry and scaly skin lesions, affects about 7.5 million people in the United States. Psoriasis results from abnormal proliferation of ...

Autoimmune diseases arise from a complex interplay of immune dysregulation, characterized by the loss of self-tolerance and chronic inflammation. Central to these processes are cytokines – soluble ...

Success stories in the field of cell therapies are making headlines on a daily basis. These achievements involve complex manufacturing processes in which cytokines play a key role. Choosing the ...

Researchers at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University have developed a new approach to harnessing immunostimulatory cytokine proteins as a potential immunotherapy. Unlike previous methods ...

Clonal cytopenias of undetermined significance often manifest prior to myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), and a recent study found similarities in the cytokine profiles of the distinct conditions. In ...
