Nutrition and the Immune System: A Complicated Tango
Nutrients, 2020 Enthusiasm exists for the potential of diet to impact the immune system, prevent disease and its therapeutic potential. Herein, we describe the challenge to nutrition scientists in defining this relationship through case studies of diets and nutrients in

Helminths in the hygiene hypothesis:Sooner or later? [PDF]
, 2014 There is increasing recognition that exposures to infectious agents evoke fundamental effects on the development and behaviour of the immune system. Moreover, where infections (especially parasitic infections) have declined, immune responses appear to be

Chaperone-mediated MHC-I peptide exchange in antigen presentation
IUCrJThis work focuses on molecules that are encoded by the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) and that bind self-, foreign- or tumor-derived peptides and display these at the cell surface for recognition by receptors on T lymphocytes (T cell receptors ...
