“ID3+ T cells have the remarkable ability to resist burnout and maintain a powerful immune response over time, making them particularly effective in the face of chronic infections or cancer,” said ...

Researchers at the Monash University Biomedicine Discovery Institute have identified a previously unknown type of immune system memory B cell (MBC) that can cause poor antibody responses in chronic ...

Researchers have uncovered why some intestinal worm infections become chronic in animal models, which could eventually lead to human vaccines and improved treatments. Parasitic worms, also called ...

Millions of people who recover from infections like COVID-19, influenza and glandular fever are affected by long-lasting symptoms. These include chronic fatigue, brain fog, exercise intolerance, ...
