Even when immune memory cells form in the lung after influenza infection, insufficient dietary iron leaves them less able to mount a strong antiviral response, revealing how nutrition can shape ...

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.

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 ...

Scientists have discovered that T cell receptors activate through a hidden spring-like motion that had never been seen before ...

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 ...

New findings could aid future development of more efficient therapeutic strategies in the context of regenerative medicine and aging.

Neoantigen vaccines are at the forefront of cancer research, driving personalized immunotherapy and improving outcomes through targeted T-cell activation.
