The immune system naturally declines after age 20, making individuals more susceptible to infections, studies show. While chronic illnesses such as ...

Based on previous findings by ourselves and others, we hypothesized that activation-induced zinc influx is mediated by accumulation of Zip6 into the immunological synapse (IS) and by phosphorylation ...

In particular, T cells assemble the immunological synapse (IS), an adhesive structure that is the site of complex actin network organization and dynamics. As such the T cell synapse provides a ...
