Researchers have unlocked a way to grow the immune system’s “conductors” from stem cells, bringing ready-made cancer-fighting therapies a big step closer. For the first time, scientists at the Univers ...
Cancer immunotherapy has been transformed by engineered T cells, but those bespoke treatments are slow, expensive, and out of ...
Chimeric antigen receptor natural killer (CAR-NK) cell therapy is emerging as a promising next-generation immunotherapy with ...
Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells represent a unique lymphocyte subset that bridges innate and adaptive immunity. Their development originates in the thymus from double‐positive precursor cells, ...
"Why do immune cells that are supposed to eliminate viruses suddenly turn against our own body?" There are instances where killer T cells—which are meant to precisely remove virus-infected ...
Researchers at the University of British Columbia (UBC) have made a significant discovery regarding the cultivation of ...
Researchers have published the first description of the role of the ZFP36 family of RNA binding proteins in regulatory T cells (Tregs). Tregs are key to maintaining balance in the immune system and ...
