New findings could aid future development of more efficient therapeutic strategies in the context of regenerative medicine and aging.

Dietary iron deficiency in mice alters lung T cell activation during influenza infection and leads to memory T cells that are present in normal or increased numbers but have impaired antiviral ...

Memory T cells are a special type of white blood cell that "remember" past infections and vaccines, helping our bodies to quickly respond if we encounter the same germs again. These cells are found ...

The field of immunology of ageing is rapidly evolving, with T cells playing a pivotal role in maintaining immune competence and overall organismal ...
