Researchers from National Taiwan University (NTU) and National Taiwan University Hospital (NTUH) have identified a promising ...

The human immune system is one of the body’s most important defense systems. Every day, millions of immune cells move through ...

Scientists have uncovered a hidden immune system "brake" that may help cancers avoid being destroyed. The molecule, called ...

An international team led by researchers at Lund University in Sweden has identified the molecular tools needed to reprogram ordinary cells into specialized immune cells. The discovery, published in ...

T cell immunity constitutes a central pillar of the adaptive immune response to SARS-CoV-2, acting in concert with antibodies to prevent severe disease. CD4⁺ helper T cells orchestrate antiviral ...

You might think of cancer as a mass of rogue cells that grow uncontrollably. But cancer is more organized and strategic than ...

Certain white blood cells in the immune system, known as neutrophils, can make cancer immunotherapy less effective, according ...

Many modern cancer treatments, including immunotherapy, depend on activating killer T cells to recognise and destroy tumours.

The Israeli study examined tumor samples and nearby lymph nodes from 11 patients with high-grade serous ovarian cancer.

The immune system relies on T lymphocytes to recognise and eradicate malignant cells. CD8+ T cells scan peptide fragments displayed on major histocompatibility complex class I molecules at the tumour ...

Investigators from Mass General Brigham have developed a way to promote antitumor immunity by hijacking cellular machinery within cancer cells. The study demonstrated that inducing cancer cells to ...

To our immune system, naked RNA is a sign of a viral or bacterial invasion and must be attacked. But our own cells also have RNA. To ward off trouble, our cells clothe their RNA in sugars, Vijay ...
