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 ...

T cell activation—the process by which these key immune defenders recognize threats and mobilize against them—depends on ...

A breakthrough in CAR-T therapy may allow cancer treatment with a single injection, cutting costs and making care more available.

Plant immunity is largely initiated at the cellular level, with each cell capable of autonomous detection and response, while ...

A new form of CAR T kills leukemia, multiple myeloma, and sarcoma in mice, opening the door to a future off-the-shelf cancer treatment without chemotherapy.

A study published in the journal Nature showed that the thymus, a small organ in the chest known for training the immune system in childhood, is also important for long-term health and lifespan.

A tumor “don’t‑eat‑me” shield also hides pro‑immune danger signals; new antibodies that unmask this hidden cue could make cancers more vulnerable to immune attack.

This article explores how advanced immune imaging technologies enable real-time visualization of immune responses, improving understanding of inflammation, autoimmunity, cancer therapy outcomes, and ...

Researchers at the Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology have found that physically resisting the formation of an immunological synapse actually promotes a stronger immune response. The findings could ...

Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic autoimmune disease that affects millions of people worldwide. This disease prompts the ...

Borrowing a cancer cell’s disguise, scientists shielded insulin-producing cells from attack by the immune system, a breakthrough that could pave the way for targeted type 1 diabetes treatments without ...

Scientists have found a way to make one of the most aggressive brain tumors vulnerable to the immune system. A single injection of a modified virus can invade glioblastoma, kill cancer cells, and ...
