Epigenetics Research in Systems Immunology: Concepts, Technologies and Future Concept of the Systems Immunology The conventional approach in immunology research has been ‘hypotheses’ driven, in which the Immunologist performs experiments, generates a set of observations and then develops a ‘mechanistic’ understanding at the end of the study. In contrast to this conventional paradigm, systems biology Read More

Tumours are organ-like structures composed of different cell types whose interactions are required to promote their maintenance, growth and metastasis. Increasing evidence indicates that the tumour microenvironment (TME) can dictate aberrant cellular function and play a critical role in the subsequent development of more advanced and refractory malignancies. TME is constituted of cancer-associated fibroblast (CAFs), Read More

What Is Inflammation? Inflammation (Latin, inflammatio, to set on fire) is the complex biological response of vascular tissues to injury or harmful stimuli, such as those caused by pathogens, damaged cells, or irritants. In general, the following events occur during an inflammatory response: Vascular changes: blood flow increases and fluid and plasma proteins leak into Read More
