Researchers studying whether COVID-19 affects how the human immune system responds to subsequent viral threats found changes in men that differed from those in women.
. They then compared responses in those who had never had COVID with those who had mild cases and recovered.vaccinesThis means that the baseline immune status in previously infected men was altered in ways that changed the response to a different virus, said the authors, who included John Tsang, now a professor of immunobiology and biomedical engineering at Yale University in New Haven, Conn.
“This was a total surprise,” Tsang said in a university news release. “Women usually mount a stronger overall immune response to pathogens andResearchers said these new findings may be linked to an observation made early in the pandemic — that men were much more likely to die from a runaway immune response than women after contractingResearchers said even mild cases of COVID may trigger stronger inflammatory responses in males than in females.
Researchers found several differences between COVID-recovered males and healthy controls and COVID-recovered females, both before and after receiving

Biochemists describe structure and function of newly discovered CRISPR immune systemUtah State University biochemists Thomson Hallmark and Ryan Jackson, along with collaborators, published two seminal papers this week. Their findings describe the structure and function of a newly discovered CRISPR immune system that—unlike better-known CRISPR systems that deactivate foreign genes to protect cells—shuts down infected cells to thwart infection.
