Kidney cells can make memories too. At least, in a molecular sense. Neurons have historically been the cell most associated with memory. But far outside the brain, kidney cells can also store ...

Research reveals that T cells from the adaptive immune system can manipulate the memory of innate immune cells. Previously, it was believed that the memory of innate immune cells operated ...

A recent study suggests that memories aren’t just stored in the brain, raising important questions about cognition.

Memories can form outside of the brain, according to new research. Non-brain cells exposed to chemical pulses similar to the ones that brain cells are exposed to when presented with new information ...

For decades, we believed memory was a function exclusive to the brain. However, new research from Dr. Nikolay Kukushkin at New York University (NYU) has revealed a groundbreaking discovery: ...

Researchers have discovered that some CAR-T cells engineered to fight cancer and other conditions carry the memory of past encounters with bacteria, viruses and other antigens within them, a finding ...

A cancer drug class best known for attacking tumors may also help your immune system remember them better. Researchers at ...

In wound healing, immune response, and cancer metastasis, cells migrate through the body—often squeezing through narrow, confined spaces. Together with experimental collaborators, Professor David ...

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 ...

For decades, dogma dictated that the immune system consisted of two separate branches. Cells of the innate system respond rapidly to molecular patterns shared by a broad array of pathogens. Meanwhile, ...

Even when immune memory cells form in the lung after influenza infection, insufficient dietary iron leaves them less able to mount a strong antiviral response, revealing how nutrition can shape ...
