Trained immunity in alveolar macrophages can lead to damaging lung inflammation, confirming the importance of context in this phenomenon.

How your immune system really ages — research shows aging brings adaptation not decline and reveals ways to maintain immune strength.

Researchers identify a new player in human immunity that can go rogue and turn the immune system against the body’s own tissues. The protein, called granzyme K, whose role until now was unclear, ...

Our immune system is armed with an array of defenses designed to detect and eliminate harmful threats. One of its most powerful defense mechanisms is the complement system -- a group of proteins ...

The complement system and neutrophils constitute the two main pillars of the host innate immune defense against infection by bacterial pathogens. Here, we identify T-Mac, a novel virulence factor of ...

The complement system, a pivotal element of antiviral immunity, is a cascade of proteins found in the bloodstream and at mucosal sites, such as the respiratory tract. Activated through three different ...
