Researchers identified a monocyte/dendritic cell response to EBV reactivation in B cells as one of the earliest events in ...

NK-cell lymphomas are invariably associated with clonal Epstein–Barr virus infection in the tumor cells. Pathologically, NK-cell lymphomas are divided into extranodal NK-/T-cell lymphoma ...

Astragalus is a powerful adaptogen with immune-boosting, anti-inflammatory, and anti-ageing benefits. Backed by both ...

A recent study has revealed how Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) intensifies ulcerative colitis (UC), a debilitating inflammatory ...

Natural killer cell deficiency should be considered in patients susceptible to herpes virus or papillomavirus with persistently decreased NK cell function.

A new study found that part of the Epstein-Barr virus mimics a protein made in the brain and spinal cord, leading the immune ...

A team of researchers from the Hospital del Mar Research Institute, the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona and the Pompeu Fabra University has developed a new tool that allows modifying these NK cells ...

"Our research provides compelling evidence that EBV actively contributes to UC severity by triggering inflammatory cell death in macrophages. More significantly, we have identified glycolysis as a ...

"The Epstein-Barr virus settles in different cells in the body, thereby escaping the immune defenses. Consequently, it remains in an infected person's body for the rest of their life. The virus ...

A novel mouse model offers definitive evidence that a single inhibitory receptor family governs the critical natural killer cell functions of licensing and missing-self.
