Adaptive immune responses and cytokine immune profiles in humans following prime and boost vaccination with the SARS-CoV-2 CoronaVac vaccine
BackgroundAdaptive immune response has been thought to play a key role in SARS-CoV-2 infection. The role of B cells, CD4 + T, and CD8 + T cells are...

Immunosurveillance of Candida albicans commensalism by the adaptive immune system
The fungal microbiota (mycobiota) is an integral part of the microbial community colonizing the body surfaces and is involved in many key aspects of...

Influence of Micro- and Macronutrients on the Clonal Phase of the Adaptive Immune Response
In the clonal defense phase of the adaptive immune response, the defense reaction is implemented by the so-called clonal selection and expansion of...

Metabolic Profile of Adaptive Immune Cells
Recently, evidence derived from different studies has shown that metabolic routes determine the fate of immune cells and impact the immune response,...

The Adaptive Defense Response: Physiological and Pathological Stimulatory Potential of Food Components in the Antigen-Specific Immune Response
Upon prolonged immunogenic stimulation, an antigen-specific adaptive defense response is initiated. The established signaling of the innate defense...

Western diet increases brain metabolism and adaptive immune responses in a mouse model of amyloidosis
Diet-induced increase in body weight is a growing health concern worldwide. Often accompanied by a low-grade metabolic inflammation that changes...

The role of the adaptive immune system and T cell dysfunction in neurodegenerative diseases
The adaptive immune system and associated inflammation are vital in surveillance and host protection against internal and external threats, but can...

Immunomodulating effects of the single bacterial strain therapy EDP1815 on innate and adaptive immune challenge responses — a randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial
The gut microbiome can modulate systemic inflammation and is therefore target for immunomodulation. Immunomodulating effects of EDP1815, a bacterial...

Immune Response
The specific reactivity induced by an antigenic stimulus in a host is known as an immune response. The immune system is developed in a host primarily...

Adaptive immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 persist in the pharyngeal lymphoid tissue of children
Most studies of adaptive immunity to SARS-CoV-2 infection focus on peripheral blood, which may not fully reflect immune responses at the site of...
