Researchers have identified antibodies targeting a hard-to-spot region of the influenza virus, shedding light on the relatively unexplored ‘dark side’ of the neuraminidase (NA) protein head. The antibodies target a region of the NA protein that is common among many influenza viruses, including H3N2 subtype viruses, and could be a new target for countermeasures. Researchers …

T follicular helper cells (Tfh) are essential for strong antibody-mediated reactions of our immune system during infections and vaccinations. However, if they get out of control, this can cause diseases such as autoimmunity, allergies or cancer. Researchers have investigated the underlying mechanisms of Tfh cell development in a mouse model and thus decoded their internal …
