Immune explains how distinct olfactory mucosal macrophage populations mediate neuronal maintenance and pathogen defense, and failure to establish durable SARS-CoV-2-specific plasma cells in the bone marrow long-lived compartment after mRNA vaccination. Hosts: Vincent Racaniello, Cindy Leifer,…
Immune reveals the total mass (1.2kg), number (1.8 trillion), and distribution of immune cells in the human body, with macrophages contributing nearly 50% of the total cellular mass.
Immune explains how, in a mouse model of roundworm infection with Nippostrongylus brasiliensis, exposure to lung-migrating helminths protects mice against SARS-CoV-2 infection.
Immune reviews evidence that toll-like receptor 9 on the surface of red blood cells binds DNA, leading to uptake by macrophages and innate immune activation.
Keke Fairfax joins Immune to discuss the work from her laboratory on understanding how maternal schistosomiasis impairs IL-4 production and B cell expansion in offspring, and modulation of macrophage immunometabolism by helminths.
On this episode of Immune, Cindy provides an update on CAR-T cell therapy of cancers and introduces two new approaches that utilize NK cells and macrophages and their use in treating solid tumors.
Alexis, Joel, Elaine, Justine, and Evonne join Immune to discuss their careers, their research, and a platform created by a collective of Black immunologists and allies aimed at amplifying, celebrating and supporting Black voices in immunology.
Cindy, Steph, and Vincent launch a new podcast, Immune, and talk about how warm temperature protects against atherosclerosis by regulating monocyte migration into the blood.
