Scientists have found that an overactive immune sensor, triggered by damaged DNA, may drive rapid aging in certain genetic disorders, suggesting new treatment avenues.
Scientists have identified a natural immune mechanism involving epoxy-oxylipins that helps shut down inflammation, offering a new pathway for treating chronic inflammatory diseases.
Scientists have identified a biological tipping point in microglial behavior that may determine whether Alzheimer's pathology leads to dementia, offering new treatment targets.
A routine blood test marker, the neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio, may predict a person's risk of developing Alzheimer's disease years before symptoms appear, suggesting immune cells could play a role in the disease's progression.
