Researchers found that anxiety and insomnia were linked to reduced levels of natural killer cells in young women. As stress and sleep problems intensified, immune defenses appeared to weaken further.

When a rogue cell starts proliferating out of control, the first responders on the scene should be the body’s own immune cells—for example, natural killer (NK) cells, which use toxic molecules to ...

Research, headed by teams at Trinity College Dublin and University College Dublin, has uncovered how lipid-rich fluid in the abdomen, known as ascites, plays a central role in weakening the body’s ...

Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) remains one of the most challenging hematological malignancies to treat, with relapse and refractory cases continuing to pose significant hurdles. Traditional therapies ...
