Groundbreaking Research Reveals Unseen Mechanisms of Immune Response
ISB’s Heath Lab discovered key insights into how T cells – the body’s frontline immune soldiers – respond to infections like COVID-19.
T Cell Discovery Unlocks Potential for Crafting Tailored Immune Responses
This story published by Inside Precision Medicine covers ISB research showing that the different disease-fighting functions of distinct T cells are determined by the genetically encoded T-cell receptor (TCR) sequence that are unique to those cells. The findings are promising for developing custom immune responses to specific antigens.
Researchers find a chink in the armor of tuberculosis pathogen
ISB researchers have identified a network within Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the pathogen that causes tuberculosis, that allows it to tolerate and resist drug therapies. When the network is disrupted, Mtb’s cells are unable to properly divide, compromising their cell wall – a key defense mechanism.
