Advancing research in immune system biology, immune-mediated diseases, infectious disease immunity, immunotherapy and translational immunological medicine.
The Department of Immunology of The Gazette of Medical Sciences (The GMS) publishes peer-reviewed, open-access scholarly work addressing the development, organization, regulation and function of the immune system in health and disease. The Department provides an international platform for immunologists, clinicians, biomedical researchers and allied healthcare professionals to communicate advances in basic, translational and clinical immunology.
The Department welcomes original experimental and clinical research, prospective and retrospective studies, systematic and narrative reviews, case reports, case series, clinical observations, methodological studies, editorials, letters and scholarly perspectives. Contributions may examine cellular and molecular mechanisms of immune responses, host–pathogen interactions, immune regulation, immunological diagnostics and the prevention and treatment of immune-mediated diseases.
Particular interest is given to innate and adaptive immunity, immune cell development, antigen recognition and presentation, cytokine signaling, immunological memory, immune tolerance and inflammatory pathways. The Department encourages investigations into autoimmune and autoinflammatory conditions, primary and secondary immunodeficiencies, allergy, asthma, infectious disease immunology, cancer immunology and immunotherapeutic approaches.
The scope also encompasses vaccine immunology, transplantation immunology, mucosal immunity, immunogenetics, neuroimmunology, nutritional immunology, immunometabolism and the influence of environmental and microbial factors on immune function. Research involving immune biomarkers, immune profiling, monoclonal antibodies, cellular therapies and emerging immunomodulatory treatments is welcomed.
The Department encourages interdisciplinary research connecting immunology with oncology, rheumatology, infectious diseases, neurology, dermatology, pulmonology, gastroenterology, genetics and public health. Studies that strengthen mechanistic understanding, diagnostic accuracy, therapeutic development and patient outcomes are of particular interest.
The Department supports responsible scientific publishing, research integrity and ethical reporting. Submissions undergo editorial assessment and peer review in accordance with the journal's applicable editorial and publication policies.
This review examines autoimmune disorders through an energy-based theoretical framework rather than conventional cellular and molecular explanations. The authors revisit the historical development of immune theory, challenge selected interpretations of immune function and propose an alternative account of inflammatory and autoimmune phenomena.

Drawing on population and environmental data from the Canary Islands, the authors explore whether NLRP3 inflammasome activity may contribute to the observed patterns of disease and mortality.

The authors measured white blood cell counts, differential cell counts, hemoglobin, platelets and C-reactive protein before and after supplementation, reporting changes in several measured parameters.
