Regulatory T cells (Treg cells) are a specialized subgroup of immune cells that play a central role in the human immune system. These cells can suppress erroneous and therefore harmful immune ...

Multicellular organisms are a mosaic of different cells, tissues, and systems, each with their own specific function and interactions with other cells within the organism and/or the larger environment ...

As we age, the immune system begins to weaken. This leaves us exposed to dangerous infections. But a new study offers hope: we may soon be able to reverse the trend.

The mammalian immune system is an evolutionary wonder. It's capable of recognizing and destroying cancer cells, and it can deploy armies of antibodies against viruses, bacteria, parasites and fungi.
