How DNA and life experiences leave distinct marks on the human immune system

Using single-cell epigenomic profiling of immune cells from 110 individuals, researchers show that genetic variation and environmental exposures shape the human immune system through distinct DNA methylation mechanisms. Genetic effects concentrate within gene bodies of memory cells, while environmental exposures primarily remodel regulatory regions in naive immune cells.

Targeted Fab fragments dismantle the allergy trigger

Allergic diseases represent a major global health burden, placing significant strain on healthcare systems worldwide. Severe conditions such as anaphylaxis, asthma, food allergy, and allergic rhinitis are driven by immunoglobulin E (IgE), an antibody that binds to immune cells, including mast cells and basophils.
