Scientists at La Jolla Institute for Immunology Unlock New Understanding

Scientists at La Jolla Institute for Immunology (LJI) have achieved a scientific milestone, publishing the first-ever comprehensive analysis of immune cells in the nasal passageways, uncovering their role in producing antibodies against incoming respiratory infections. This groundbreaking research holds significant implications for understanding immune memory and SARS-CoV-2 reactions, offering a deeper insight into the complexities of our immune system.

Laying the Foundation for Future Discoveries

Immune memory, a crucial aspect of our immune system, plays a vital role in protecting us from future infections. LJI researchers have developed an innovative technique that allows them to assess immune memory and SARS-CoV-2 reactions with unprecedented accuracy. This technique paves the way for future discoveries and advancements in the field of immunology.

Unveiling the Respiratory Mucosal Immune System

The respiratory mucosal immune system, located in the lining of the respiratory tract, is responsible for defending against respiratory infections. LJI scientists have meticulously studied this system, identifying the intricate interplay between immune cells and antibodies. Their findings provide a deeper understanding of how the immune system protects us from respiratory illnesses.
