UCLA and Stanford Medicine researchers, in collaboration with scientists from the University of Utah and Columbia University, ...
The current path to CAR-T cell therapy is, by any measure, a logistical ordeal. A patient’s immune cells must be drawn out of ...
Scientists have uncovered new genetic rules that determine whether the immune system’s “killer” T cells remain powerful long-term defenders or become worn out and ineffective. By building a detailed ...
T cell activation—the process by which these key immune defenders recognize threats and mobilize against them—depends on ...
T cells are supposed to be relentless. These white blood cells patrol the body, identify threats, and destroy them.
Despite improvements in therapies, multiple myeloma (MM) is a disease that will always relapse. Why is this? What is the key to finding effective therapies to cure MM? Evan Newell, a Professor in the ...
Engineers at the University of Pennsylvania have developed a new type of lipid nanoparticle (LNP) that could one day serve as a universal immunotherapy for cancers that form solid tumors, including ...
Sickle cell disease (SCD) altered CD8+ T-cell chromatin architecture, triggering ferroptosis and weakening antitumor immunity. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) treatment restored chromatin interactions and ...
