Imagine bacteria adhering to the surface of a cell, perhaps at the site of an injury or wound. In response, a white blood cell arrives at the scene. This cell encircles the pathogen with its ...

New research from RCSI University of Medicine and Health Sciences has found that white blood cells which ‘remember’ past inflammation events are quick to overreact, raising the risk of blood clots.

Since neither red blood cells nor platelets have nuclei, these patterns largely reflect gene expression in the various types of white blood cells. “But depending on which cells you have more of in ...

Blocking a protein called CD44 has been shown to protect against obesity in mice on a high-fat diet, specifically by suppressing the formation of white fat cells. But a new mechanism could lead to ...
