For decades, cancer immunotherapy has focused primarily on CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes as the main executors of tumor cell ...

A study conducted at the University of Eastern Finland revealed that a recently described T cell subset may have a central role in the development of type 1 diabetes. These so called follicular T ...

Fred Hutch Cancer Center scientists have developed an experimental strategy to give genetically engineered CAR T cells help they'd normally find within lymph nodes — but on the go, within the tumor.

According to the American Cancer Society, colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death. Enrichment of regulatory T cells (T-regs) in solid cancers is generally associated with poor ...

Ben-Gurion University of the Negev's Prof. Alon Monsonego had discovered that T helper lymphocytes, a subset of immune cells which regulate immunity, undergo functional changes with age. These changes ...

T-bet expression is required for persistence of memory B cells that have rapid differentiation potential to become antibody-producing plasma cells in response to a second infection BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – ...

Immunotherapy has transformed cancer treatment, but persistent challenges, such as T cell exhaustion, limited persistence, and variability in response, continue to impact therapeutic success.

Colorectal cancer can be treated using immunotherapy approaches that use the immune cells to target cancer cells and induce the killing of those cancer cells. Some colorectal cancer types have been ...

However, details of the intervening steps, as researchers have learned in the past 65 years, are quite complex — certain cells carry the flu antigen to the immune system, specific immune cells respond ...
