Molecular landscape of immune pressure and escape in aplastic anemia
Idiopathic aplastic anemia (IAA) pathophysiology is dominated by autoreactivity of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-restricted T-cells against antigens...

Immunological and metabolic characteristics of the Omicron variants infection
The Omicron variants of SARS-CoV-2, primarily authenticated in November 2021 in South Africa, has initiated the 5th wave of global pandemics. Here,...
