Research shows how dendrimers avoid detection by the immune system

Tiny synthetic particles known as dendrimers have been shown to avoid detection by our immune system and so could be used to develop a new system to deliver drugs into the body without triggering a reaction.

Study reveals the biology and treatment behind rare rheumatoid-like autoinflammatory condition

The absence of a protein that activates the body's antiviral defenses can cause a rare rheumatoid-like autoinflammatory condition that is treatable with an FDA-approved class of drugs known as TNF (tumor necrosis factor) inhibitors, a global research team led by Mount Sinai has found.

Research reveals link between high-fat diet, gut microbiota and cardiovascular disease

A high-fat diet disrupts the biology of the gut's inner lining and its microbial communities -; and promotes the production of a metabolite that may contribute to heart disease, according to a study published Aug. 13 in the journal Science.

Study proposes methods to purge unstable regulatory T cells

Scientists from the Babraham Institute, United Kingdom and VIB-KU Leuven, Belgium, came up with two solutions that can overcome a major clinical limitation of immune cell therapies. The researchers chose mice as their model. The findings were published recently in the journal Science Immunology.
