Your immune cells actively manufacture antimicrobial weapons from vitamin D. When macrophages detect a pathogen, they convert 25(OH)D into cathelicidin (LL-37)… #Antimicrobial #Cathelicidin #Immunefunction #Macrophage #VitaminD

The lymphatic system is a network of vessels and nodes that transport lymph, remove interstitial fluid, and support immune function. It plays a key role in fluid balance and pathogen defense.

Sweating, medically referred to as perspiration, is a fundamental bodily process that involves the release of fluid from sweat glands located on our skin's surface. This natural function plays a crucial role in regulating our body temperature, particularly during physical exertion or exposure to warm environments. Besides its role in thermoregulation, sweating can also occur as a response to emotional states such as stress, nervousness, or excitement.

Genetic screens in immune cells enable the systematic interrogation of gene function at scale, uncovering key regulators of cell functions such as tumor cell killing and persistence. However, existing...

Loizidou, Palaiokrassa, Asiedu, et al. study individuals who alternate between being omnivorous and avoiding animal products for religious reasons. Results reveal widespread changes in health-related ...

Introduction: The C-reactive protein-albumin-lymphocyte (CALLY) index represents a novel composite biomarker integrating inflammatory, nutritional, and immune parameters. We aim to examine the relati...
