T cell development is a tightly regulated process that transforms immature thymocytes into mature T cells with distinct functionalities. In the thymus, precursor cells undergo a series of selection ...

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 ...

For the first time, researchers at the University of British Columbia have demonstrated how to reliably produce an important type of human immune cell-known as helper T cells-from stem cells in a ...

A new paper published today in Cell highlights how researchers have leveraged AI-based computational protein design to create a novel synthetic ligand that activates the Notch signaling pathway, a key ...

We owe a lot to tissue resident memory T cells (T RM). These specialized immune cells are among the body's first responders to disease. Rather than coursing through the bloodstream-as many T cells ...

Researchers have used an experimental mRNA therapy to make old immune cells in mice behave as if they were young again, ...

CAR T-cell therapy, which transforms patients’ own immune cells into cancer-fighting warriors, has revolutionized how physicians treat cancer, especially blood cancers. “These patients can be cured ...

On February 13, Allogene Therapeutics published new long-term follow-up data on cemacabtagene ansegedleucel, showing the investigative allogeneic chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy ...
