🐍💉 Tim Friede spent nearly 20 years gradually immunizing himself against #venom from over a dozen deadly #snakes, including #cobras and black #mambas.

Scientists used #antibodies from his blood to create an experimental #antivenom that protected #mice from 13 types of snake venom. The work could lead to a single broad-spectrum antivenom.

A man let snakes bite him 202 times. His blood helped create a new antivenom

A new antivenom relies on antibodies from the blood of Tim Friede, who immunized himself against snakebites by injecting increasing doses of venom into his body.

Cytokine-armored CAR-T cell therapy is a novel cancer treatment that reprograms engineered T-cells to not only target cancer but also release immune-stimulating proteins. This dual action activates the body's natural immune system to strengthen the overall anti-cancer response against aggressive brain tumors like glioblastoma.

💧🧬 Aquagenic urticaria is an extremely rare condition where #skin contact with #water triggers painful hives.

Researchers believe a substance on the skin reacts with water to release histamine. Interestingly, those affected can still drink water safely because their internal digestive systems don't trigger this specific immune response.

Yes, you can be allergic to water

For people with aquagenic urticaria, even a quick shower has consequences.

The virome refers to the vast, complex, and heterogeneous collection of all viruses that are found in or on an organism, or within a specific environmental ecosystem. To truly comprehend the sheer scale of this biological "dark matter," one must examine the staggering numerical reality of viral abundance.

🚜🧬 Researchers compared two similar communities with different #farming techniques to study immune system development.

#Amish #children who grow up around traditional manual farming show a much lower risk of #allergies than #Hutterite children who live on modernized industrial farms. The study suggests that early exposure to diverse environmental #microbes found in barns helps train our immune system to ignore harmless allergens.
