The avian lung-associated immune system [PDF]
, 2006 The lung is a major target organ for numerous viral and bacterial diseases of poultry. To control this constant threat birds have developed a highly organized lung-associated immune system.

Infections with extracellular trypanosomes require control by efficient innate immune mechanisms and can result in the destruction of the mammalian humoral immune system [PDF]
, 2020 Salivarian trypanosomes are extracellular parasites that affect humans, livestock, and game animals around the world. Through co-evolution with the mammalian immune system, trypanosomes have developed defense mechanisms that allow them to thrive in blood,

Mathematical models for vaccination, waning immunity and immune system boosting: a general framework [PDF]
, 2015 When the body gets infected by a pathogen or receives a vaccine dose, the immune system develops pathogen-specific immunity. Induced immunity decays in time and years after recovery/vaccination the host might become susceptible again.

Normalizing and denoising protein expression data from droplet-based single cell profiling
Nature Communications, 2022 Current single cell protein expression profiling approaches come with substantial measurement noise. Here the authors discover the sources of this noise and develop a denoising algorithm that improves data quality and downstream applications.

MicroRNA in the immune system, microRNA as an immune system
Immunology, 2009 SummaryThe advent of microRNA has potentially uncovered a new level of complexity to be considered for every biological process. Through the modulation of transcription and translation, microRNA alter the basal state of cells and the outcome of stimulatory events. The exact effect of the microRNA network and individual microRNA on cellular processes is

An Immune Inspired Approach to Anomaly Detection [PDF]
, 2007 The immune system provides a rich metaphor for computer security: anomaly detection that works in nature should work for machines. However, early artificial immune system approaches for computer security had only limited success.

Sleep and the Immune System [PDF]
Current Immunology Reviews, 2012 Abstract: From a physiological perspective the sleep-wake cycle can be envisioned as a sequence of three physiological states, identified by a particular homeostatic patent: wakefulness, non-rapid eye movement (NREM) or slow sleep, and REM sleep. These three physiological states are defined by a particular neuroendocrine-immune profile that regulates ...
