Efficient T-cell engineering is crucial for the success of CAR T-cell therapy research, but it requires multiple labor-intensive steps, including T-cell isolation, activation, and transduction.
The orchestration of T cell activation is central to immune defence and self-tolerance. Recent advances have revealed that T cells integrate signals from their antigen receptors alongside a network of ...
Metabolism guides the activation states of regulatory T cells, the immune cells that prevent inappropriate activation of the immune system. St. Jude Children's Research Hospital scientists recently ...
Northwestern Medicine scientists in the laboratory of Stephen Miller, Ph.D., professor emeritus of Microbiology–Immunology, have identified the cellular and molecular mechanisms required for the ...
CHICAGO, Jan. 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- COUR Pharma, a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing first-in-class, antigen-specific immune tolerance therapies for autoimmune diseases, announced ...
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 ...
Immunotherapy has transformed cancer care, offering a way to harness the body’s own immune system to fight tumors. But even with these advances, many patients still don’t respond. One major barrier to ...
CD8 + cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) serve as central effectors in cancer immunotherapy by directly eliminating tumor cells. However, current clinical therapies face significant limitations. These ...
Antibodies are most well-known for their ability to recognize and bind specific antigens—a property that has made them indispensable for both the laboratory and clinic. However, antibodies are not ...
