There he studied the fundamental cellular and biochemical mechanisms required
for immune cell activation and clearance of infections.
This jump - started cell division is
called immune cell activation and is an important component of both normal immune responses and autoimmune reactions.
This program, resulting in shorter 3 ′ UTRs, is a characteristic of gene expression
during immune cell activation and correlates with proliferation across diverse cell types and tissues.
It is also the first in an emerging class of therapies called «checkpoint blockade,» which enhance the immune system's ability to attack cancer by interfering with immunological checkpoints that slow or
stop immune cell activation and proliferation in the presence of tumors or chronic viral infection.
This workshop will showcase real - time, live - cell assays
for immune cell activation, proliferation, chemotaxis, transendothelial migration, immune cell killing, and phagocytosis.
This includes research on both the innate and adaptive immune response and processes such as pathogen recognition,
immune cell activation and recruitment, cytokine secretion, inflammation, and antibody production.
