Drug discovery is shifting from static snapshots to moving pictures. Instead of inferring how medicines work from end results ...

A research team of the University Medical Center Mainz has succeeded in observing for the first time how G protein-coupled ...

Triggering receptors expressed on myeloid cells (TREMs) are a cell surface receptor family found on granulocytes, monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells—as well as other myeloid cells in general.

Every time our body encounters a new disease-causing agent, a crucial defense system called adaptive immunity comes into play ...

Platelets are small, anucleate blood cells that play an essential role in hemostasis. Their primary task is to recognize vascular injury, become activated, and aggregate via their surface receptor ...

A Northwestern Medicine study published in Nature Communications has revealed how HIV can protect infected cells by altering the sugars on their surface, hindering the host immune system and avoiding ...

The novel biosensor technology used in this study can also be transferred to other so-called G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), which act as crucial “signal receivers” in our cells and are of major ...

Proteomics experiments on Drosophila reveal sex-specific effects in aging, and an important role for a protein called DIP-β.

Receptors on B and T cells hint at what the immune system is targeting. An AI approach called Mal-ID developed increases diagnostic accuracy, particularly for autoimmune diseases. Your immune system ...
