The study, "A transcriptionally distinct subset of influenza-specific effector memory B cells predicts long-lived antibody responses to vaccination in humans,” was published in Immunity. “Our study ...

However, details of the intervening steps, as researchers have learned in the past 65 years, are quite complex — certain cells carry the flu antigen to the immune system, specific immune cells respond ...

At the surface, the immune response to a flu virus is simple. Some cells recognize the pathogen and send a signal to the immune system, and immune cells produce a potentially lifesaving antibody ...

Researchers headed by teams at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research and at the Kirby Institute at UNSW Sydney have discovered why receiving a vaccine booster in the same arm as the first vaccine ...

University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine and UPMC Hillman Cancer Center scientists have discovered a novel subset of cancer-fighting immune cells that reside outside of their normal neighborhood – ...

Where you get your vaccine booster matters more than you think. Scientists in Sydney found that same-arm shots prime immune cells to respond faster, producing stronger antibodies against viruses like ...
