A new study shows how the single-molecule organization of receptors in a cellular context determines the function of antibodies, opening up new pathways for the development of cancer immunotherapies.

In a recent study published in Science Translational Medicine, researchers evaluated the differential humoral immune response to two coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines - messenger ...

The lower hinge of immunoglobulin G (IgG), an overlooked part of the antibody, acts as a structural and functional control hub, according to a study by researchers at Science Tokyo. Deleting a single ...

A new study shows how the single-molecule organization of receptors in a cellular context determines the function of antibodies, opening up new pathways for the development of cancer immunotherapies.

Researchers have analyzed the antibody Immunoglobulin M in rainbow trout to shed some light on why these proteins may have evolved over time. Antibodies -- proteins that are produced by our immune ...

A recent study published in the journal Nature Communications observed antibody breadth and effector functions as important immune correlates that can be used to develop universal influenza vaccines.

Antibodies—proteins that are produced by our immune system to protect us—are crucial for recognizing and getting rid of unwanted substances, or antigens, in our body. Although their role is universal, ...
