Cells of the Immune System
The immune system is comprised of many subsets of cells that work together to protect the host against infections and malignancies. Each one of these cells has a role to play. Research on how they work and their interactions with other subsets continues to reveal opportunities for novel therapeutic strategies.
Below is a collection of scientific resources for your immune cell research.
