immune system The system in humans and other animals that provides immunity by protecting against disease-causing agents, such as bacteria, viruses, parasites, and fungi. The immune system is composed of the skin and mucous membranes, which provide an external barrier to infection, and the cells...
Immune system, the complex group of defense responses found in humans and other advanced vertebrates that helps repel disease-causing entities. Immunity from disease is conferred by two cooperative defense systems: innate immunity and acquired immunity.

The human immune system is composed of a distributed network of cells circulating throughout the body, which must dynamically form physical associations and communicate using interactions between their cell-surface proteomes1. Despite their therapeutic potential2, our map of these surface interactions rem...
This observation has led to the suggestion that therapies based on these or related molecules may potentially be disease modifying. The mechanisms invoked to explain this phenomenon relate to stimulation of cytokine production, notably IL-12, by cells of the innate immune system. This appears to ...

psychosocial interventions and immune system function: intervention type, intervention format, intervention length, type of immune marker, whether the immune marker represented basal or stimulated levels, immune marker assessment timing, participants’ disease state or reason for receiving treatment, age, ...
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a prevalent condition characterized by lipid accumulation in hepatocytes with low alcohol consumption. The development of sterile inflammation, which occurs in response to a range of cellular stressors or injuries, has been identified as a major contributor...
In Figure 12, the results of the numerical solution of the system (22)–(28) are presented for the parameter value 𝑘4=10−6k4=10−6. Thus, cytokine storm may not occur immediately, but at a certain stage of the development of the disease. Figure 12. Numerical simulation for ...
