Persister bacteria manipulate intracellular pH for surviving antibiotic treatment

Decreasing bacterial acidity could help reduce antimicrobial resistance by eliminating bacteria that can survive being treated with antibiotics.

New study could prevent T cell exhaustion in the immune system’s fight against cancer

Struggling against a tumor is not a sprint. It is a marathon. The race of cancer-fighting T cells is at times simply very long, and the T cells give up fighting. This phenomenon is referred to as T cell exhaustion by researchers.

Scientists provide insights on immune evasion of metastatic cancer cells in lymph nodes

Lymph nodes are critical to the body's immune response against tumors but paradoxically, cancer cells that spread, or metastasize, to lymph nodes can often avoid being eliminated by immune cells.

Experts evaluate traditional dogmas related to dairy cow health during transition period

For dairy cows, the transition period--the time between a cow giving birth and beginning to produce milk--brings the greatest possibility of health problems.

Researchers use body-on-a-chip cancer models to study personalized immunotherapy response

Wake Forest researchers and clinicians are using patient-specific tumor 'organoid' models as a preclinical companion platform to better evaluate immunotherapy treatment for appendiceal cancer, one of the rarest cancers affecting only 1 in 100,000 people.

Metabolite produced by gut microbes found to be involved in regulating commensal bacteria

Researchers at the RIKEN Center for Integrative Medical Sciences (IMS) have discovered that acetate, a major metabolite produced by some intestinal bacteria, is involved in regulating other intestinal bacteria.

Subset of immune cells may carry out a sort of 'secondary education' to protect pregnancy

Researchers at UC San Francisco are zeroing in on how the immune system may play a role in miscarriage, which affects about a quarter of pregnancies.

Study confirms long-term immune system responses of adenovirus vaccines for COVID-19

Researchers from the University of Oxford suggest that adenovirus vaccine vectors may create strong long-term immune system responses.

Rapid, more accurate test to detect antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 spike protein

Japanese researchers have come up with a highly accurate, rapid test for identifying antibodies against the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein in human serum.

Contamination of urban surface water by human waste drives 'superbug' spread

Contamination of urban lakes, rivers and surface water by human waste is creating pools of 'superbugs' in Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMIC) - but improving access to clean water, sanitation and sewerage infrastructure could help to protect people's health, a new study reveals.

Cells damaged by chronic lung disease favor SARS-CoV-2 entry

Researchers propose that similar to pouring water atop a wellhead prior to pumping, the airway cells of patients suffering from chronic lung diseases are “primed” for infection by the COVID-19 virus.

AMSBIO launches new range of biosimilar antibodies for research use

AMSBIO has launched a new range of research grade biosimilars that enable analysis of biological processes without the need to purchase expensive therapeutic-grade biologics.

Isoflavone diet plus metabolizing gut bacteria may provide protection against MS

A new University of Iowa study suggests that metabolism of plant-based dietary substances by specific gut bacteria, which are lacking in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), may provide protection against the disease.

Liver fibrosis might be treatable with selective immunotoxins

Chronic alcohol abuse and hepatitis can injure the liver and lead to fibrosis, the buildup of collagen and scar tissue. As a potential approach to treating liver fibrosis, University of California San Diego School of Medicine researchers and their collaborators are looking for ways to stop liver cells from producing collagen.
