Heintzman cultured immune system T cells at 39 degrees Celsius (about 102 degrees Fahrenheit). He found that heat increased helper T cell metabolism, proliferation and inflammatory effector activity ...

Fever temperatures rev up immune cell metabolism, proliferation and activity, but they also -; in a particular subset of T cells -; cause mitochondrial stress, DNA damage and cell death, Vanderbilt ...

Inflammation represents a long-conserved biological process characterized by the release of chemical messengers that regulate ...

Chemotherapy is one of the most-used cancer treatments. It uses chemicals that stops the growth of cancer cells in the body.

Fever temperatures rev up immune cell metabolism, proliferation and activity, but they also—in a particular subset of T cells—cause mitochondrial stress, DNA damage and cell death, Vanderbilt ...

Fever temperatures rev up immune cell metabolism, proliferation and activity, but they also -- in a particular subset of T cells -- cause mitochondrial stress, DNA damage and cell death, researchers ...

In a study published in Advanced Functional Materials, a research team from the Shanghai Institute of Materia Medica (SIMM) ...

Biomaterials are increasingly utilized for modulating immune cell responses in both studies of and treatment strategies for a range of maladies. For example, in vivo, implanted biomaterials are being ...

BARCELONA, Spain — In a groundbreaking study that could reshape our understanding of cancer, scientists have uncovered a treasure trove of potential new targets for cancer treatment. This discovery ...

Red blood cells are the most abundant cells in the body. It has long been known that when red blood cells break down or anemia occurs due to bleeding, the hormone erythropoietin (EPO) increases, ...

A research team has discovered a mechanism in which blood stem cells respond to acute, severe anemia, through lipoprotein metabolism modification. It has been known how immediate erythroid precursors ...
