Limiting immune response can reduce joint injury caused by the mosquito-borne Chikungunya virus

The Chikungunya virus that has hit the Americas is less severe than the strain that wreaked havoc in La Reunion

Revealing the
differences between subsets of immune cells in the blood could yield new
therapies for infectious and autoimmune disease

A novel diagnostic test for Chikungunya
virus also helps distinguish the illness from other mosquito-borne diseases

strain gives the most detailed visualization yet of immune cells in the bone
marrow

A shift in energy processing pathways occurs in immune cells that tolerate rather than attack

A protein vaccine designed to target all four variations of the dengue virus proves effective in mouse trials

A deeper knowledge of the body’s immune response will help combat this mosquito-borne disease

New roles revealed for immune-regulatory protein may have significant clinical implications

Scientists identify the skin immune cells targeted by the dengue virus when it infects a person
