While most current research and immunotherapeutic strategies focus on other immune cells, such as T or natural killer cells, their findings highlight the importance of basophils in antitumor immunity, ...

Despite multiple studies showing that a normal white blood cell (WBC) count does not exclude serious disease, physicians in all specialties continue to behave as if it did. To assess whether a ...

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

This increase in white blood cells, deployed from the animals' bone marrow, occurred shortly after exposure to A485. About 12 hours later, the researchers said, cell counts dropped back to ...

It will also look at problems that can arise with the immune system. White blood cells circulate in the blood and lymphatic vessels, looking for pathogens. When they find one, they begin to ...

Other potential causes include: medications exposure to toxins inherited genetic changes Aplastic anemia can also affect white blood cell and platelet production. In addition to a low red blood ...

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 ...

What Is B-Cell Lymphoma? B-cell lymphoma is a cancer that forms in your white blood cells called lymphocytes. These cells are made by your lymphatic system, which plays an important role in immunity.
