A step closer to understanding our immune system to improve therapies for chronic inflammatory diseases
The Institut Pasteur, in collaboration with Johnson & Johnson Innovative Medicine Research & Development, uncovers the interactions between a molecule (the cytokine interleukine-23 (IL-23)) produced by the immune system and so-called mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells, which are involved early in the immune response to fight pathogens. Chronic inflammatory diseases are...

Can lymphoid organs-on-chip be used to evaluate the effectiveness of booster vaccines?
Researchers at the Institut Pasteur, a Carnot-labeled institute, have developed an innovative technology: "lymphoid organ-on-chip" devices that are capable of simulating the human immune system’s response to booster vaccines. This breakthrough could provide a versatile preclinical system to evaluate vaccine candidates in the face of rapidly evolving pandemics such as that caused by the SARS-CoV-2...
