Broadly neutralizing antibodies, or bnAbs, are a long‑standing goal of HIV vaccine research because they can disable many strains of the virus at once.

Immune cells called B cells make antibodies that fight off invading bacteria, viruses and other foreign substances. During their preparation for this battle, B cells transiently revert to a more ...

Immunotherapy is the form of treatment that redirects the immune system toward a pathogen or disease. In many cases, immunotherapy is referred to treating cancer. As tumors progress, they secrete ...

Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . A “complete eradication” of B cells with chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy is responsible for the ...

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infected and reprogrammed autoreactive B cells in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) to become activated antigen-presenting cells. EBV-infected B cells in ...

Researchers have uncovered a critical, previously underappreciated role for B cells in vaccine protection. Best known for producing antibodies, B cells also guide other immune cells, specifically CD8 ...

New findings show that the stage of normal cell development at which B cells transform into leukemic cells impacts treatment outcomes for pediatric patients with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B ...

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 ...
