(MRC DTP CASE) Investigating the mechanisms contributing to impaired regulatory function of B cells in autoimmunity

The University of Manchester Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health

The implementation of biological therapies has significantly advanced the management of autoimmune diseases (AIDs). However, the failure to achieve clinical remission in ‘non-responders’ remains a significant and unmet challenge. Read more

Helminth products as macrophage “trainers”: a novel tool to induce anti-inflammatory trained immunity

Kingston University Faculty of Health, Science, Social Care and Education

The innate immune system can display characteristics of immunological memory. This phenomenon, termed “trained immunity”, refers to the long-term functional reprogramming of innate immune cells after the encounter with infectious or non-infectious agents that influences their capacity to respond to a secondary stimulus.
