The Immune team travels to the University of Maryland for ASV 2018, where they meet up with Rebecca Lynch to explore her work on broadly neutralizing antibodies against HIV-1.
The Immune team explores the variable lymphocyte receptors of jawless vertebrates, a system of immunity that parallels the structurally unrelated antibodies of jawed vertebrates.
The Immune team reveals how γδT cells that synthesize interleukin-17A regulate adipose regulatory T cell homeostasis and thermogenesis.
The Immune hosts discuss how the complement system functions, and its role in early synapse loss in a mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease.
The Immune hosts explain how antibody molecules mature, then discuss the finding in infants of potent neutralizing antibodies against respiratory syncytial virus without somatic hypermutation.
