NCI Researchers Confirm the Effectiveness of Immunotherapy Approach to Treating Melanoma
A team of researchers, led by Steven A. Rosenberg, M.D., at the National Cancer Institute, part of the National Institutes of Health, have found that patients with advanced melanoma who had not responded to previous therapies experienced a significant reduction in the size of their cancers as a result of receiving a new immunotherapy. This immunotherapy consisted of a combination of chemotherapy...First SCID gene chip to be introduced at Academy meeting on immunodeficiencies
The first gene chip ever to be developed for detecting SCID (primary immunodeficiency) in newborns will be presented to researchers for the first time at the New York Academy of Sciences' and Jeffrey Modell Foundation's one-day conference, Primary Immunodeficiencies: Past, Present, Future. The meeting will take place on April 25 at Rockefeller University, Caspary Auditorium, 1230 York Avenue, NY...Chemical guidance of T cells leads to immunologic memory and long-term immunity
In the latest issue of the journal Nature, scientists at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) describe a new understanding about how long-term immunity works--findings that may lead to new ways of thinking about how to enhance certain immune responses and how to improve vaccines. Led by immunologist Ronald Germain, M.D...Immune cell communication key to hunting viruses, Jefferson immunologists show
Immunologists at the Kimmel Cancer Center at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia have used nanotechnology to create a novel "biosensor" to solve in part a perplexing problem in immunology: how immune system cells called killer T-cells hunt down invading viruses. They found that surprisingly little virus can turn on the killer T-cells, thanks to some complicated communication amon...Immuno at Biology Products

Catch & Release v2.0 High Throughput (HT) Immunoprecipitation Assay Kit- 96 well from Upstate
Description:This kit allows for quick and reproducible immunoprecipitation (IP) by using a 96 well filter plate. The system is more reproducible than regular IPs, which are problematic with regards to washing the protein A/G agarose without disrupting the agarose bed. The binding of the antibody/antigen complex in Catch and Release is reversible, and elution of the immune complex can occur with native or den...Company:Upstate
Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) Immunofluorescence Assay Kit from AbD Serotec
Description:Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) is an intracellular marker normally present at high levels in cortical thymocytes and minor subpopulation of bone marrow prelymphocytes. Elevated levels of the enzyme and increased numbers of TdT cells are found to be associated with some lymphoblastic leukaemias and lymphomas. Presence of TdT thus provides a useful adjunct in the differentiation of leu...Company:AbD Serotec

Researchers Feel The Need For Standards Of Practice In Immunoglobulin Therapy
Nursing specialists feel that there is a requirement for having a standard of practice in immunoglobulin therapy.

It is a routine practice to prescribe drugs called immunosuppressant to transplant patients to prevent the transplanted organs from being rejected. The medical community has only been interested in worrying about the problems caused due to immunosuppression. Looking at the other side of the coin, there seems to be benefits as well.// It has been found out that the immunosuppressive dr...Immunotherapy For Cancer Treatment
Dr. David McKean and Colleagues from Mayo clinic, is working on improving the host immune system by increasing the T cells by giving Anti-retroviral therapy with tumor components so that it produces immune cells specifically against the Cancer cells//.
