A new study has shown that pigeons navigate using Earth's magnetic field with the help of immune cells in their liver, which act as an internal compass and send signals to the brain. This discovery reveals a previously unknown mechanism of bird navigation.
Researchers at KAIST have developed a method that allows macrophages to be reprogrammed directly within tumors, turning them into active cancer fighters. This approach could enhance the effectiveness of immunotherapy and simplify the treatment of complex types of tumors.
Scientists have discovered that immune cells called macrophages can accelerate muscle recovery by transmitting signals similar to synapses. This finding could lead to new methods for treating muscle injuries and diseases.
