Immunology Research

As the study of the immune system in both health and disease, immunology research covers a wide range of topics. While there are on-going efforts to understand intracellular immunity mechanisms and effector mechanisms of the immune system, a significant number of researchers are focused on the study and role of the immune system in disease. Researchers in these areas study diseases interrelated by cellular, molecular, and genetic regulatory mechanisms that dictate the associated immune response, such as cancer, infections, chronic inflammation, autoimmune diseases, allergies, and tissue transplantation.

  • Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) are characteristic components of the cell wall of Gram negative bacteria; they are not found in Gram positive bacteria. They are localized in the outer layer of the membrane and are, in noncapsulated strains, exposed on the cell surface. They contribute to the integrity of the outer membrane, and protect the cell against the action of bile salts and lipophilic antibiotics.
